President has goals for alumni association,

O'GORMAN IT you attended any ' of the recent winter dinners you

probably met her-welcoming guests, introducing speakers, and always happy to hear alumni stories from "school days," whether those were UMC or Northwest School of Agriculture (NWSA) days.

She is Sherry O'Gorman ('69), president of the UMC Alumni Association and a member of the board of directors for eight of its fifteen years.

One of Sherry's strengths as alumni president is her understanding of the bonds between the Technical College, Experiment Station, and Northwest School. She grew up in Euclid, MN, hearing·her father's stories of his school days at the NWSA and comparing them -to those of her friends who were current students at the school. "I knew most of the kids at the school and always hung around the campus. My first prom and first homecoming dances were at the Northwest School."

Sherry was a high school senior when "the Tech" opened for classes. She enrolled in general education coulI1>es with an interest in accounting. " I figured that that way I could get a decent job if I had to stop school to work." Sherry continued toward a degree in marketing and small business management but was discouraged to

. find that companies refused to interview women for management trainee positions. Every interview was subtly turned to only accounting positions.

Since Sherry was only a few cre.dits short of an ac-counting degree also, she was contacted by several companies. "IT it weren't for UMC I would never have had a chance for those interviews. UMC called me at home more than once to put me in touch with Land 0 Lakes and Control Data."

Sherry feels like somewhat of an authority on in-terviewing. " I've certainly done a lot of interviewing in fifteen years." Her first job was an accounting position with Control Data in Minneapolis. She returned to the Crookston area to marry her longtime fiance, Bob Gaber. His sudden death four months later forced Sherry to shape a new future .

She attended Bemidji State University for a year before accepting a junior accountant position with Investment Dynamics Corp. in Minneapolis. The company went bankrupt two years later. "I learned an awful lot from their bankruptcy. As people left the company there was more and more to do. I was involved in everything the company did. It really was a major learning experience for me."

So, it was back to job interviews again. Sherry worked for a short time with a private CPA in Minneapolis before moving .back to Crookston to be the manager at Brost Chevrolet. After two years at the dealership and one year as a self-employed accountant Sherry is now em-ployed by Wm. R. Paradise, CPA as an accountant. "Actually, I'm also the office manager and the cleaning lady!" she added.

Sherry has worked for the Accounting Office for five .rears but continues to see difficulties for women in ' Iusiness careers. "The unwillingness of companies to hire

; Nomen for management is one thing women still have to Jvercome in small business. In big business the com-panies need to fill a quota and it actually gives women an advantage.

Sherry always commented at the winter dinners that women had an advantage at UMC during the first years simply because there were so few women compared to the oumber of men! She still has stories of dorm escapades

. and sneaking out after curfew. Once, however, she and friends checked out for the weekend and then sneaked :lack into the dorm just to see if it could be done. This meant sneaking out again so they could check back in at :he end of the welejkend. I

"I didn't want tQ go to the Tech because I was going to go away from home for school. But going there was like being away from home, even if it was only fourteen miles," she said. "There really weren't any individual highlights because the whole two years was a real lear-ning experience."

Along with the fun Sherry took her classes seriously. Bill Paradise, currently assistant professor of accounting, was the instructor who most influenced her as a student. "He was one of the few college teachers who put the

. burden of learning on students. He treated us like college students and always said, 'You are here to learn and I am here to teach. But I can only teach tf you're willing to learn.'"

Sherry sometimes wishes she could be back as a student again. "I wouldn't really change anything from before, but the programs are better now and they teach about the whole area of computers." Eventually Sherry would like to study public administration and tailor her interests toward nursing home care and administration. .

For now, Sherry chooses to limit her commitments outside the home. "I know myself and my limitations. Right now the most important things in my life are my family and my job. I don't want to spread myself too thin." Sherry and Bill O'Gorman, a self-employed salesman of grain driers and handling equipment, have two children, Heather (3 1h) and Mike (22 mos.)

Her main organizational involvement is the UMC Alumni Association, a tie she has kept since her

graduation· in 1969. Sherry remained active in the association even when living in Minneapolis and has served several full and partial terms as a director .

"Tradition" has always been important to Sherry. She was the student chairperson of the first ·homecoming activities. "We were trying to start some traditions so people would come back each year." The growth of an-nual homecoming events and traditional festivities such as the Alumni Recognition Banquet is geared toward bonding alumni and UMC.

Sherry's continued involvement in the alumni association over the past fifteen years gives her a good overview of the changes. "The direction of the association has improved 100 percent in the last years. For so long we were some office's "extra duties" and had little organization. At the same time we tried too hard to go by the bylaws and the association didn't get anything done."

v . ",urOlith enjOyed presentmg prizes to alumni at the . Warren dinner. She and Dr. B. E. Youngquist honor Albert Kopecky ('23) as the oldest ahlmnus at the dinner.

There are over 2500 members in the UMC Alumni Association. This increase in , numbers has given the association more structure, more interested volunteers, and more.financial support for UMC. "The College now recognizes us as an asset through our fund raising and public relations." The annual recognition awards given by the association are valuable public relations, too. "It is really a great honor to be recognized by one'speers for outstanding service and achievement. I'd like to see more alumni nominating other alumni."

As president, Sherry has two dreams for the alumni association. "First, the alumni should continue to support UMC. Alumni need to remember that they can playa big role in job placement of UMC graduates as well as recruiting new students. And second, I'd love to see a

I healthy scholarship set up by the association-maybe #

even a full ride. It would be based on applicants' grades and attitude, not on need. It should go to an alumnus' child or relative or dependent and be something really wor-thwhile getting. Really a biggie."

The O'Gorman children may someday attend UMC and be eligillle for .that scholarship. They would be the third generation of Sherry's family to attend either UMC or the Northwest School. And they can tell their children about "Grandma" Sherry O'Gorman, one of the first UMC graduates who helped build the alumni association, served during its rough years, and worked to establish its value to UMC and its alumni.

President previews homecoming Happy Spring! This winter

in the North Country was very mild compared to most winters, with very little snow and not too cold. Some of you night not have been so lucky, but I hope you all fared well. With the coming of the new season, the Board has already turned to Fall and homecoming activities. Homecoming will be October 8th this year . Mark your calendars!! The honored classes are class of '73 and our first 15 year reunion , the class of '68. If anyone is interested in working on the honored class committees, please contact Cheri Viestenz at UMC, myself or any of the Board members. The honored class reunions are only as successful as the classmates make them. Let's see a lot of those old faces on campus next fall!

As the Association gets older and larger, the selection process for our recognition banquet gets to be more difficult each year.

Sherry O'Gorman These awards are a very special way to honor our peers who have done a ' tremendous job with their lives and show them that we are glad we know them.

This past year was the first time the Association got involved with Ag-Arama, and we all had a fun time. I was amazed af the first-class

production the current students put on, and it was great working with them . On Saturday morning we sponsored a brunch for the alumni and the judges, most of whom are alumni. That evening we were part of the contests , Some were serious ag-related events and some were just plain fun! You all should get there next year to see Dr. Sahlstrom throwing (catching'??) eggs ' and eating cream pie-he's not too tidy! ! And then there was the alumni sponsored drinking contest!! You'll just have to come next year to hear more about it! !

The winter dinners were also a huge success. At most locations, more guests showed up than we had expected. There were a few more UMC alumni there than in the past, but the Aggies still out-did us. Let's see that tdrn around next year.

Another new event for the alumni is Career Day. This is

a day when alumni are asked back to campus to talk to the second year students and explain to them what they will find out in the job market. It's a good way for students to receive a little insight and also gives us a little insight into ourselves. During the alumni lunch I found out that many of you have been having mini-reunions at various locations. If there is anything we can do to help you organize, let us know. Also drop us a note telling us what you did and who was there.

Well, since this is the first _ of April and I have a lot more tax returns to get out,. I'd

better cut this short. I do F· t UMC student want to remind you of the IrS Annual Fund again. You have probably already ' received a call, or will be returns to campus getting one shortly. When they call, don't forget all that you learned from UMC. Don't you think it's time to repay a little of the debt!

Provost notes recent accomplishments In 1966 when UMC opened its doors Troy Dagen was the

first student to enter. He registered in the agriculture division's crop science program as a farm boy from Karlstad.

Troy visited UMC in February and commented on the changes in the campus and students since 1966. When he attended the student body consisted of just over 100 males and about five females. Now UMC's enrollment tops 1,100 during fall quarter and the ratio of men to women is equal. He also noted the many new buildings and student facilities on campus. Troy enjoyed attending UMC even with its limited facilities and small enrollment. He felt the small size of the campus offered opportunity for better communication.

GREETINGS TO ALL YOU U M C e r ' s WHEREVER YOU ARE! It's a great pleasure for me to see yo.u in your places of work from time to time. I appreciate the very special family relationship between those who have been together at UMC.

It has been a proud year at the college. Achievements have .been noteworthy in DECA competition, in in-tercollegiate athletic arenas, and through participation in classroom-related activities across the nation. You gra..duates set a pattern of

achievement that is a model for the present students.

I hope that each of you reserved October 7-8, 1983, for homecoming at UMC. The annual recognition banquet will be on Friday, October 7, with the football game and related festivities scheduled after the game on Saturday. This year there will be special activities for the honored classes of 1968 and 1973. We hope that all of you who were part of those classes will make a special effort to J:>e with us. The 1973 football team is also .con-sidering a special reunion this year . .

I wish that each of you might have seen the crowds on campus for the boys and girls district and regional basketball tournaments this year . It was an excellent opportunity to provide the famous UMC hospitality.

A special congratulations to graduates Keith Ramberg and Jim LeClair who joined the Presidents Club of UMC. They are making a special financial commitment to the future of the college through this association. I invite all of you to support the ac-tivities of UMC through contributions to the Alumni Annual Fund.

After attending UMC for two years Troy transferred to North Dakota State University and graduated with .a degree in ag economics. He currently lives at Karlstad and is president of the Red River Valley Potato Growers Association.

Troy is married and has two children, a .son (12) and a daughter' (8).

Life insurance: A contribution Would you like to make a major gift to the University of Minnesota-Crookston

(UMC) or to a UMGprogram but feel you can't afford it? Do you want to be a member I of the prestigous University Presidents Club but your cash flow does not allow it? , A life insurance policy is one of the least expensive methods of charitable giving. This is particularly true for younger people. Here is how it works:

1. Take out a new life insurance policy. A. A whole life policy with a level premium is recommended. For

a Presidents Club membership the value must be $25,000 or more.

B. UMC is the owner and beneficiary of the policy. Therefore, your entire premiums are tax deductible on your state and federal income tax.

, C. The cost of a policy will depend on your age, policy amount, and insurance

,company but here is a general range.

AGE POLICY FACE VALUES, ANNUAL PREMIUMS 25 $10,000- $80-$125

25,000 $200 -$310

30 $10,000- $100 -$150 35,000 $250 -$575

35 $25,000- $350-$450 30,000 $700-$900

40 $25,000- $450-$560 50,000 $900 - $1,120

2. Assign an existing policy to UMC. • A. Present cash value and all future premiums payment on income are tax

deductible.

B. Determine what program at UMC you would like to see benefitted by your .

The personal advantage of this program is that through your regular giving plan (annual premium) you leverage your money several times.

Example: Assume you take out a $25,000 policy with a premium cost of $300. If you pay 30

percent of your income to state or federal income taxes your $300 premium will cost only $210 annually. But more important, this $210 per year would mean an ultimate

of $25,000. In forty years (probably the maximum you would pay premiums) you would contribute $8,400 but the amount of benefit to UMC would be $25,000 or more.

This is only a general example since your situation and insurance policy will va,ry. Your insurance agent can give you more specific examples. . If you are interested in this type of program, please contact

Historic church donated to UMC The congregation of the

Hafslo Lutheran Church has voted unanimously to make a gift of their church building to the UMC campus. The congregation was disbanded after ninety years of service at a location ten miles southeast of Crookston.

At UMC the church would be a center for informal and ecumenical campus ministry programs as well as organizational events and

displays. Built in 1900, the church will be located on campus adjacent to the former NWSA superin-tendent's home (now known as the "White House"), .emphasizing the importance of home, church, and school in pioneer life.

The University of Min-nesota regent's acceptance of the Hafslo Church was contingent on private fund-raising efforts to pay for the costs of relocation. An ex-citing development in fun-

ding' may help the project reach its goal of $25,000, the minimum amount needed for the relocation which includes moving, site preparation, etc.

Through its Branch Matching Fand program Lutheran Brotherhood, a fraternal organization serving Lutheran congregations, will match gifts up to $250 per congregation.

One of the most valuable resources in each ,

congregation is , UMC al,umni. Would you be willing to work with the Lutheran Brotherhood member in an eff9rt to raise money through your congregation and receive the matching funds?

Nominees selected lor awards Nominations for the 1983 Personal Achievement and

Personal Service awards drew a wide range of alumni talents and contributions. Now the selection process begins, with the awards presented at the annual Alumni RecognitionlJanquet on Friday, October 7, homecoming weekend.

If you receive application forms as a nominee please complete and return them. It is an honor to be nominated. These awards represent the highest recognition UMC gives to distinguished alumni. Nominations are submitted by UMC administration, faculty and staff, along with those made throughout the year by alumni.

The Personal Achievement award is given to graduates or former students who have attained unusual distinction in the chosen field, profession, or public service. The selection committee considers nominees' educational background, professional accomplishments, community service, professional affiliations, community-state-national honors, and personal references.

Past winners of the Personal Achievement award in-clude Thrainn Kristjansson ('72) , Ken Pazdernik ('70), and Gerald Moritz ('68) in 1980; Debra Habedank ('76) and Richard Ramey ('70) in 1981; and Lon Christianson (attended '70), June Delorme ('72) , Jim LeClair (attended '68-'69), and Kenneth Oehlke ('72) in 1982.

-, Service to UMC is the prime consideration in selecting

the Personal Service award recipients. Service may be ,given through time (beyond employment at UMC), financial contribution, student recruitment, public relations, job opportunities for UMC students, alumni involvement, community leadership, and personal references.

Past Personal Service award winners include Grace Stromli ('75), Wayne Omundson ('74, '76), and Darrell Larsen ('72) in 1980; Tom Feiro ('75), Anne Granitz ('68), and Keith Ramberg ('68, '70) in 1981; and Jim Clauson (attended '74), Brent Jacobson ('76), and Bob Larson ('79) in 1982.

The selection committee is an independent group of community leaders. Among the eight members are two judges and one award recipient from the previous year. This committee reviews the application forms and per-sonal references of each nominee and ranks the ap-plications according to a predetermined scale.

The alumni office coordinates the awards process and . homecoming details but does not determine award recipients. That selection is made independently by the committee. If you have any questions, please contact the alumni office or call (218) 281-6510, Ext. 435.

Winter quarter enrollment • Increases Despite a nation-wide

trend in decreasing college enrollments UMC recorded a winter quarter increase of 2.3 percent over a year ago. " I'm surprised, " said Provost Stan Sahlstrom . "But we are very pleased that students recognize the quality of instruction offered at UMC and that they realize the need for technical collegiate education preparing . for - em-ployement."

UMC's official winter quarter enrollment of 1094 is up from 1069 in 1982. The largest increase is in the number of men enrolled. There are 632 this quarter compared with 572 a year ago. This represents an increase of 10.4 percent. At the same time the total

num ber of women enrolled is down seven percent, from 479 a year ago to 462 winter quarter.

" In difficult times it is important to be prepared for job opportunities, and our goal at UMC is to prepare people for employment, " added Sahlstrom.

All of the University campuses indicated- a decrease with the exception of Crookston and Waseca. In terms of actual head count, the Twin Cities campus enrolled 44,702 students, down .5 percent ; Duluth, 7,124, down 1 percent; Morris, 1,527, down 5.6 percent; and Waseca, 1,265, up .5 percent.

Alumni return for first annual Alumni Career Day

Beth Gerhardson of Merrimac, WI was presented the UMC oxcart as the alumnus traveling the farthest · distance back to campus. Beth participated in the light horse management session.

How did you get your first job? What kind of jobs are there in my field? What should I be taking here at UMC to better prepare me for a job? ·These and many other questions were discussed at the first annual Alumni Career Day on March 15. . About thirty alumni from the agriculture and home economics divisions were on campus for a morning of alumni information and a session with current students sharing the same major with alumni.

The event provided current stUdents with first-hand information on job . markets and how to be most successful in reaching job goals from the date of graduation through one 's career.

Alummi spent part of the morning hearing about alumni association events and plans for the future from association president Sherry O'Gorman. Don Cavalier, director of placement,

Alumni met with students sharing a common major for a question and answer '

reminded alumni that they are still eligible for placement services by reactivating and updating , personal files . The placement office also en-couraged all alumni to notify it of openings which could be filled by UMC graduates or current students.

The question and answer session with stUdents gave alumni an opportunity to expand on their present job situations and the job progression they have followed. Each session was moderated by a division

session on job opportunities and career preparation.
