Dean’s Note
Gifts to the University of Michigan School of Education come in many
forms: good advice about our programs from an alumna serving as a co-
operating teacher; a generous check from an emeritus professor; a warm
welcome to join in partnership by a local superintendent, an invitation to
apply for foundation funding after a presentation. Our alumni, friends,
and supporters provide a steady flow of financial and intellectual suste-
nance for the life’s work of such a place: Teaching and learning. Re-
searching. Tackling the complex problems facing public education for
the sakes of young people everywhere.
Our Annual Report issue of Innovator gives us a chance to say, “Thank you so much for your generosity. Your
financial support helped us to accomplish so much this year, and we’re grateful.” The Annual Report issue also
allows us to take stock of our growth and progress as a learning community and as an institution, to celebrate our
strengths, and to articulate our hopes for the future.

2004 finds the School of Education strong, with nationally recognized faculty, cutting-edge research and develop-
ment projects, and talented students at the doctoral, masters, and undergraduate levels. Our ties grow stronger
with other departments and professional schools on the UM campus, in recognition that some of the best work we
do is collaborative and interdisciplinary. Stronger, too are our relationships with regional school districts, inter-
mediate school districts, and other institutions of higher education, in recognition that the problems and issues of
public education require diverse, grounded perspectives and collaborative action to address.

At the same time, like many other institutions of higher education in Michigan and other units on campus, we’ve
had to engage in belt-tightening and trimming, as our state struggles with deficit. Now, more than ever, we depend
on your largesse to do the following:

-Provide scholarships for students who are determined to address the pressing issues and needs in
public education
-Endow faculty positions, so we can continue to retain our talented faculty
-Enhance our technological capacities, so we can continue to integrate new technologies into disciplinary-
focused curriculum and instruction.
-Expand our capacity to share findings and explore the implications of research in collaboration with
teachers, administrators, and entire communities through outreach.

I want to take this opportunity to thank all the donors who are listed in these pages. We welcome your gifts!

The 2005 U.S. News and World Report rankings placed
the University of Michigan School of Education in the
top 10 for the 9th straight year. Its Higher Education
Administration program was deemed the nation’s best,
while its programs in Educational Psychology (3rd),
Educational Policy (4th), Elementary Education (8th),
Curriculum/Instruction (9th) and Administration/Super-
vision (10th) were also ranked in the top 10.
As satisfying as they are, rankings alone are not the
measure of the School. What really matters is that, as
Dean Karen Wixson wrote in her annual report to the
University Provost, “this School addresses current
educational problems in ways that really make a differ-
ence.” For instance, the School of Education’s Center
for Learning Technologies in Urban Schools (LeTUS),
in partnership with the Detroit Public Schools, recently
received the Urban Impact Award (pictured below, right)
at the annual fall conference of the Great City Schools.
The project, which began in 1998 and eventually in-
volved 47 teachers and 8,000 students, focused on sci-
ence and social studies curriculum and the meaningful
integration of technology. The result: steady gains in
middle school science achievement, and a reduction of
the gender gap between female students and their lower
achieving male peers.
Growing synergy among research and teaching, profes-
sional service and social justice has led to significant
progress, as measured by intellectual ferment and clar-
ity of purpose.
Research
The School’s portfolio of externally funded research has
grown tremendously over the past decade, with annual
research expenditures totaling almost $19 million last
year, and 38 of the 66 faculty involved in separately
funded projects. A recent report from the Institute for
Scientific Information ranks the School third among the
nation’s schools and colleges of education for total num-
ber of publications in the years 1997-2000, but first—
by a wide margin—in the rate of publication per faculty
member. The same report ranked the School first in the
nation for the impact of its research. And this impact
continues to grow, as additional projects are funded.
For example, Professor Pat King, chair of the Center
for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education
(CSHPE) is embarking upon a multi-year study examin-
ing conditions and practices that affect the achievement
of liberal arts outcomes among college students at 14
different institutions.
“We are proud of the fact that our research informs the
great national debate about how to overcome massive
inequalities in educational opportunity at all levels,”
says the Dean. “Of equal importance is the fact that we
prepare researchers and practitioners to provide leader
02 Winter 04 - 05
ship in developing policies and practices that can
overcome educational disparities in P-16 education.
We work at the intersections of meaningful research
and professional practice and build communities that
include people working in roles ranging from classroom
teachers to school principals to university administra-
tors and researchers.”
The School’s research programs also reflect the in-
ter- and multidisciplinary perspectives so essential
for dealing with educational problems. For example,
under the leadership of Professor Barry Fishman,
faculty within the School have been instrumental in the
development of a cross-unit initiative in the Learning
Sciences, an emerging interdisciplinary field dedicated
to the study and understanding of human learning in
such real-world contexts as museums or social settings,
organizational and industrial workplaces, and academic
or scientific communities, as well as schools. Similarly,
Professor Brian Rowan is leading an effort to develop
collaborations between educational researchers in the
School and research scientists in the Institute for Social
Research.
Teaching
In addition to producing research of high quality and
enduring relevance, education as a field within a
premier public university must also excel in prepar-
ing future educators. In particular, “University-based
teacher preparation has received increased scrutiny and
criticism in political debates about education in this
country,” says Dean Wixson. “Our preparation programs
reflect the marriage of subject matter knowledge with
pedagogical knowledge and skills. Although they are
already among the best, we need to continue to innovate
and improve.” Excellent faculty with a deep commit-
ment to undergraduate education are key to this suc-
cess. This year, Elizabeth Moje was named an Arthur
F. Thurnau Professor, in recognition of her “positive
impact on the intellectual development and lives of
students.”
A former Thurnau Professor, Professor Deborah Ball,
has assumed the role of Director of Teacher Education
and is leading the School in a careful examination of its
elementary and secondary teacher preparation programs
at both the undergraduate and post-graduate levels,
with an emphasis on collaborations with other academic
units.
The School is also enriching and rethinking important
components of the post-graduate curriculum. Professor
Roger Goddard helped the Educational Studies program
launch a dual master’s-degree program with the Ross
School of Business, while the Center for the Study of
Higher and Postsecondary Education, chaired by Pro-
fessor Patricia King, is continuing development of
a world of difference innovator
he School
both the established dual degree with the Ford School
of Public Policy and an MA concentration in Medical
Education with the Medical School.

Inspired by its participation in the Carnegie Initia-

tive on the Doctorate, Professor Valerie Lee has led a
group of faculty from Educational Studies in identifying
aspects of its doctoral program that could be enhanced,
especially the core courses for all students in the pro-
gram, including the research methodology courses.

Professional Service/Outreach
The Committee on Education for Equity and Social
Justice, co-chaired in 2003-04 by faculty members
Steve Raudenbush and John Burkhardt, with the active
involvement of graduate students, mounted a year-
long innovative seminar series and a course on social
justice issues in education. As Dean Wixson says, “The
ultimate goals of our Social Justice Initiative are to
improve the climate of the School with regard to issues
of diversity and inclusiveness, recruit and retain more
faculty, staff, and students of color, and align our cur-
ricula with the values we espouse regarding diversity in
our research, teaching, and professional service.”

The School’s demographics demonstrate the interim

As part of a public university, the School’s impact must
extend beyond its students, faculty and graduates. It is
not enough to create knowledge and prepare profession-
als; dedicated practitioners already in the field need to
share directly in the benefits the School provides, and
students need to interact with those practitioners.
Current noteworthy outreach efforts include an ongoing
collaboration with Michigan State University on an an-
nual Superintendents’ Institute, involvement in the state
of Michigan’s Reading First grant, and the participation
of our Interactive Communications and Simulations
program with the Michigan Civics Institute. In addition,
the School also holds summer institutes for teachers,
administrators, and teacher educators in the areas of
reading and mathematics, and its Community College
Consortium is a renowned resource for two-year post-
secondary institutions.
success of the initiative. Of the School’s 509 graduate
students, 67% are women and 23% are minorities. Of
285 undergraduates, 42% are women and 9% are mi-
norities. Two of five faculty appointments for the current
academic year are faculty of color, bringing the School’s
total to seven, four tenured and three untenured.
Dean Wixson sums up the 2003-04 year when she says,
“At a time when schools and colleges of education are
under attack for trying to maintain the status quo rather
than engaging in and facilitating educational improve-
ment, the University of Michigan School of Education
stands out for the progress it has made toward improving
teaching and learning at all levels of education and in
all settings, especially for underserved populations.”

At the undergraduate level, the Lives of Urban Children

and Youth (LUCY) Initiative, under the leadership of
Stella Raudenbush, provides students with an excellent
intellectual context for preparing to interact effectively
in a complex world. Undergraduates have the opportu-
nity to engage in the intellectual, ethical, economic, sci-
entific, and justice-seeking challenges of contemporary
society and, in particular, its urban centers. The LUCY
Initiative provides courses and co-curricular activities
that permit students to connect their academic inquiry
and their civic engagement.

Social Justice
The struggle for social justice is, in many ways, the
river into which these streams eventually flow. All of
the above would count for little if these goals were not
addressed, in terms of the knowledge generated, the
content of the curriculum, the makeup of the student
body and faculty, and the direction of outreach and
service efforts.

Foundation and Corporate Support
Eve Silberman
Spencer Foundation
Two UM Education School professors involved in very
different research activities received important help
from the Spencer Foundation. Professor Lesley Rex,
a former high school teacher and teacher educator,
became an educational researcher to get answers to im-
portant questions such as: How can white middle-class
teachers successfully reach out to low achieving under
served students of color? Through her research, she has
illustrated how, with a willingness to be self-aware and
to talk openly about race, a motivated teacher can cross
daunting racial and cultural barriers.
“With this study, I am addressing the
critical need for applicable insights into
how to prepare white teachers to teach
students unlike themselves,” Rex writes.
Government statistics, she notes, indicate
that teaching remains primarily a white
woman’s profession; yet, there is little
research about white teachers in black classrooms—
particularly in high schools. A $35,000 grant from
the Spencer Foundation funded Rex’s research, which
included working with a graduate student. Grateful for
the funding, Rex points out that her study was extremely
time-intensive. “I need to be in classrooms talking to
students over time and see on a day-to-day basis how
things develop,” she says.
For her colleague Roger Goddard, a $100,000 grant
from the Spencer Foundation was a way of bridging the
gap between the School of Education and the Business
School. The grant will fund a speaker series for faculty
and graduate students in both schools. “We’ll be bring-
ing people around the country to speak at
Michigan about the intersection of educa-
tion and business,” Goddard says. The
speakers, key “thought leaders” in educa-
tion and business, will address under-ex-
plored areas of research and practice in
both fields.
The speaker program goes hand in hand with another
initiative that Goddard helped launch: a new dual
master’s in business administration and educational
studies. Goddard knows of only one other university,
Stanford, offering such a degree, and he says that the
new master’s program is drawing many applicants from
around the country. Persons getting the degree might
04 Winter 04 - 05
assume such positions as assistant superintendent of
finance or director of business management. The ripple
effect of the speaker program will help define a “schol-
arly agenda” for the new combined program, Goddard
says.
Since it began making grants in 1971, the Chicago-
based Spencer Foundation has funded approximately
$250 million on research aimed at improving educa-
tion around the world. The foundation notes that it is
“especially interested in groundbreaking and creative
ideas in research.” Spencer’s founder, Lyle Spencer,
established an educational publishing company, Science
Research Associates (SRA), which provided the basis
of his wealth and ultimately made possible the creation
of the Spencer Foundation. Charles Dollard, Spencer’s
friend and one of the original directors of the founda-
tion, stated, “Lyle had a passionate belief in education
as the modus vivendi of a democratic society.”
W.K. Kellogg Foundation
Who should attend college? It’s a personal question,
yes, but the answer can affect everything from voting
patterns to earning potential. Thanks to a pair of grants
from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, U-M Education
School Professor John Burkhardt is helping the state of
Michigan, through a project called Access to Democ-
racy, look closely at what a college education means to
its residents. “We’re trying to help transform the rela-
tionship between higher education and society,” says
Burkhardt, “to help higher education be more clear in
its public service mission.
“The Kellogg Foundation funded us to
develop a set of materials that would guide
community-based discussions about higher
ed purposes and the question of who
should go to college,” explains Burkhardt.
“With their money, we’ve been organizing
dialogues in communities around Michigan and training
moderators.” High-level Michigan policy makers are
involved with the study, which started in fall 2004, and
will target several regions.
a world of difference innovator
Corporate Support
A former administrator with the Battle Creek–based
Kellogg Foundation, Burkhardt points out that the
research project (supported in part by the two grants,
which total almost $240,000) is very much in keeping
with the foundation’s tradition. “The Kellogg Foundation
has a long history of supporting projects that ensure that
community voices are reflected in public decisions and
public policy,” says Burkhardt. Cereal industry pioneer
Will Keith Kellogg established the foundation in 1930.
The foundation has continuously focused on building
the capacity of individuals, communities, and institu-
tions to solve their own problems.
W. T. Grant Foundation
A foundation that values young people allowed UM
Education School Professors Elizabeth Moje and Carla
O’Connor to delve deeply into topics of concern to mi-
nority youth.
Although educators have long known that mastery of
reading and writing is crucial to academic success, less
is understood about how students approach those activi-
ties, both in and out of school. Elizabeth Moje wants to
give educators a picture that has both depth and breadth.
Selected as a William T. Grant Faculty Scholar, she’s
in the fifth and final year of a $290,000 research effort
that encompasses predominantly Latino adolescents in
southwest Detroit.
“My goal is to understand more broadly
than one typically does in education re-
search where, when, how, why, and what
youth read and write,” says Moje. With that
end in mind, she and a team of researchers
observed hundreds of middle school stu-
dents in numerous classes, interviewed 60 of them, and
followed 15 students over five years.
She wants to use this understanding as a springboard for
action. Moje cites published research showing that youth
feel empowered if they use their reading and writing
skills to “take some sort of helpful action in the world.”
She and her researchers are currently engaged with sev-
eral youth in preparing a photo essay on “life for young
innovator a world of difference
people in Detroit”. We envision future work making a
video from the photo essay. The work will also evolve
into a book that may be co-authored with the youth.”
Explaining the opportunity her grant funding provides,
Moje comments, ”Grants such as this are important
for at least three reasons: First, this work focuses on
adolescents and, until recently, few funding agencies
have been interested in the learning and social lives of
adolescents. Most teachers, administrators, and other
people who work with youth are not able to study young
people closely in multiple contexts. The findings of my
work allow me to develop strategies and practices that
school and community-based people can use in teaching
and youth work.
Second, the W.T. Grant Faculty Scholar Award allows
for longitudinal research that examines youth develop-
ment over time. Few studies can achieve the depth and
breadth of understanding that can be achieved in a five-
year sustained program of research.
“Third, the Faculty Scholar Award is dedicated to build-
ing an interdisciplinary cohort of scholars (e.g. anthro-
pologists, psychologists, physicians, and sociologists)
many of whom have begun to collaborate on related
projects.” Moje, for example, is teaming with other re-
searchers who study Latino/a youth in different parts of
the country. This team is employing a variety of methods
across a vast database to try to inform youth develop-
ment and educational endeavors in a variety of venues.
Research on black students’ performance in school
has tended to focus on why they underperform. Carla
O’Connor takes the less traveled road of looking at how
and why black students succeed. In particular, she’s
examining how black students make sense of their own
racial identity and how race matters in the world around
them and how these perspectives affect their success
both in high school and afterwards. Building on a previ-
ous study, she’s following 19 students as they prepare for
and undertake post high school options, including col-
lege. Funded through a three -year, $323,000 grant from
the William T. Grant Foundation, her research includes
interviews, questionnaires, and audiotaped and/or hand-
written journals (kept by the students).
Winter 04-05 05
Foundation and Corporate Support
Now in the third year of the grant,
O’Connor says that her work to date has
raised questions about some commonly
held notions. She says, “The presump-
tion is that black student’s perceive a
conflict between being black and doing
well in school. Consequently, it is very
common for people to believe that having a strong black
identity will detract from students, ability to do well in
school. But the work I’ve done to date shows it’s much
more complicated than that.” Her work shows how and
under what conditions black racial identities operate as
protective factors. It also reveals the ways in which the
practices and organization of schools (and not the black
students themselves) establish tensions between having
a strong black identity and doing well in school.
An advantage in doing a long-term study, O’Connor
says, is being able to examine the ways in which “racial
identity shifts over time” and in response to the chal-
lenges and demands students face as they change to
adulthood. O’Connor is concerned with how these shifts
may make students more or less able to successfully
meet these challenges and demands. Such research
might show teachers and administrators “how their
practices might situate students’ racial identity as a
resource rather than as a vulnerability.” An advantage
in doing a long-term study, O’Connor says, is being able
to examine the ways in which “racial identity shifts
over time’ and with the student’s circumstances. Such
research might show teachers ”how to engage students
around identity.”
The founder of the former W. T. Grant Stores empire
launched the foundation bearing his name in 1936. Its
stated goal is to “help create a society that values young
people and enables them to reach their full potential”
and it pursues evidence-based research efforts. Early
on, the New York City-based foundation initiated a
watershed study in the use of interdisciplinary research,
following William T. Grant’s interest in finding out why
some youths succeeded in life and others didn’t.
Carnegie Corporation of New York
Recently, Annemarie Palincsar chatted
with a group of upper elementary teach-
ers, all of whom engaged in inquiry-based
science instruction. What she heard—
that these teachers had reservations and
concerns about using text in science
teaching, because science books were
so often “a mile wide and an inch deep,” with dense
vocabulary and concepts, but little explanation,
06 Winter 04 - 05
or because children often set aside their own thinking to
defer to the text’s authority—gave her pause. If teach-
ers who are serious about teaching science are reluctant
to use science texts, there are several implications:
Perhaps texts can be improved. Perhaps teachers can
be supported to think of ways that texts can be used to
support their inquiry goals in science teaching.
The problem grows even more complicated when
considering middle schools and high schools. By the
time students reach secondary schools, subject matter
teaching is often separate from literacy instruction. The
range of reading skills among students differs widely,
and the content poses greater challenges. Subject
matter teachers aren’t necessarily well-prepared to
teach reading comprehension in their disciplines,
while literacy teachers and coaches often find their
backgrounds too general to address the specific issues
within particular disciplines. With generous support
from the Carnegie Foundation of New York, Dr. Palinc-
sar, Jean and Charles Walgreen Professor of Reading
and Literacy at the School of Education, is embarking
on a project, in collaboration with UM colleagues, Bob
Bain and Susanna Hapgood, to develop a new techno-
logical tool that will create a shared space for middle
school subject matter teachers and literacy coaches to
discuss domain-specific literacies, focusing on digital
video examples in science and history. The research
and development team, which includes colleagues from
UM-Flint, Jeff Kupperman, and California Polytechnic,
Shirley Magnusson, will pilot the technology’s use in
collaboration with middle school literacy coaches and
subject matter teachers.
Foundation support such as that provided by Carnegie,
which funds work that aims ‘to do real and permanent
good in this world,” permits SOE faculty such as Dr.
Palincsar to have a direct impact on schools and teach-
ers across the country. Carnegie’s Education Division
created a new subprogram focusing on intermediate
and adolescent literacy, recognizing that expectations
for student achievement have increased, “yet the way
in which students are taught to read, comprehend and
write about subject matter has not kept pace with the
demands of schooling.”

Staples Corporation
“It’s been magical,” says UM Education School Pro-
fessor Frederick Goodman of an unexpected financial
gift made possible by his secondhand connection to a
prominent TV actor.
Thanks to Tom Cavanagh, star of the former TV series
“Ed”, the university’s Interactive Communications &
Simulations group (ICS)—which Goodman founded and
directs—is $33,000 richer. The connection between
television and the School of Education started when
Canadian-born Cavanagh became a “celebrity ambas-
sador” for office-supply retailer Staples, Inc., promoting
its charitable missions. Cavanagh was asked to specify
an American educational charity to receive a donation
from the Staples Corporation in his name. He turned to
his father, Tom Cavanagh, Sr., a retired Canadian edu-
cator, long active in international educational develop-
ment projects, and a longtime friend of Fred Goodman,
whom he met through their shared pas-
sion for educational simulation games. “I
have an incredible respect for Fred,” the
elder Cavanagh said recently. “He’s just
about the most intelligent and interest-
ing person I’ve ever met.” So, at his
father’s suggestion, the actor specified
ICS as a beneficiary.
innovator a world of difference
Goodman was “thrilled” by the gift. Part of it went
to replace a sluggish computer system, but the dona-
tion also helped advance efforts of ICS to orient young
people to the potential of educational technology. Good-
man explains, “For two decades ICS, a Computerworld
Smithsonian Award winning project, has been offering
thousands of students around the world a way to work
together asynchronously in highly demanding educa-
tional exercises.” One ICS project allowed several high
school students from diverse backgrounds to make vid-
eos of themselves, illuminating their different cultures.
Another project provided scholarships for high school
students to learn “how to develop software for socially
responsible purposes,” says ICS project director Gary
Weisserman. The students are now working with the
Public Museum of Grand Rapids on using technology to
reach out to potential museum visitors.
Staples, Inc., headquartered west of Boston in Fram-
ingham, Massachusetts, founded the office supplies
superstore industry when their first store opened in
Brighton, Massachusetts on May 1, 1986. Today, Staples
is the world’s leading seller of office products. Through
its Staples Foundation for Learning, Staples, Inc., has
contributed to more than 150 nonprofit groups across
the nation. The foundation’s mission is to “teach, train,
and inspire people from all walks of life by providing
educational and growth opportunities.” The Massa-
chusetts-based company also sponsors a Recycle for
Education program, which donates $1 to educational
charities for each inkjet or toner cartridge brought into
its stores for reuse.

With competition for charitable giving at an all-time
high, development professionals must be creative in
tailoring programs that maximize individual and corpo-
rate gifts.
Sometimes, though, there are people who just give.
They give for a variety of reasons, often stemming from
their own experience at the University, and they help
tend the foundation from which great programs, like the
School of Education, grow.
Jim Kamman, like a lot of people, had a plan when he
began his degree in education. He was a member of the
UM wrestling team and thought his future would include
teaching and coaching at the high school level. His
plan—also like a lot of people’s—changed upon gradu-
ation.
After finishing his Bachelor’s in Education, with cer-
tification (’67), Kamman enlisted in the Marine Corps.
During his four years in the Corps, Kamman served as a
member of his unit’s legal team, and when he returned
to El Toro, CA., chose to pursue a career in law. He
graduated from Pepperdine University Law School in
1976, and eventually found his niche in tax law. He
formed his own firm in 1996.
Kamman did not give up on teaching, however. He
went on to get a master’s degree in taxation at Golden
Gate University and taught in the Graduate School of
Management at the University of California Irvine for a
couple of years, and for 14 years as an adjunct faculty
member in their graduate tax program. He said 50 per-
cent of his students spoke English as a second language,
which constantly presented challenges. “Our tax law
is complex enough for our own citizens, let alone those
from other countries,” he said.
Kamman began giving to the University shortly after
graduation. “Just small amounts, of course, but in the
last 15 years I have become a relatively large donor.”
His reason for giving is two-fold. “In everything I have
done, one of the greatest lessons I’ve learned—from my
father, my coaches—is that you gotta put back in, you
can’t just take out,” Kamman said. His giving is also
based upon the belief that anyone who wants to go to the
University of Michigan should be able to go. A lack of
08 Winter 04 - 05
money should not restrict someone from pursuing an
education. Kamman is helping his own son pay for his
education, and said he finds it pretty amazing that now,
when you factor in inflation, you can spend as much
in one year as he spent in four years for his own col-
lege education. Which is why he sees it as critical that
people support education. “The state legislature doesn’t
have the money, it has to come from individuals.”
One such individual, in every sense of the word, is
known as “Michigan Mary.” Mary Douglas (MA, 1952)
took on that moniker when she moved from Michigan to
Los Angeles in 1953. “When I moved to Los Angeles,
people used to ask where I was from, and soon enough
I became known as Michigan Mary.” To reinforce the
pride in her Michigan roots, Douglas has a vanity plate
that reads WLVRN, and her phone number translates to
7UM-GOGO.
Douglas, a Monroe native, pursued her teaching career
on the West Coast. After teaching elementary students
for five years in Michigan she spent the next 37 years
in California. In addition to teaching children, Douglas
also spent time teaching adults in amnesty programs for
immigrants in Los Angeles, and in-service teacher train-
ing programs. “I taught elementary education by day,
and teachers and parents at night,” while also raising
her son as a single mother.
Douglas retired to Arizona in 1990. “I dedicated my
life to teaching other people’s children for 42 years,”
she said, “and I continue today through philanthropy.”
Each of the programs she is involved with—from the
American Association of University Women (AAUW), to
Delta Kappa Gamma, and the UM Alumni clubs of West
Valley, Calif., and Pheonix, AZ.—has a scholarship
component, Douglas said.

m Individuals
Although a regular donor to both the SOE and the Rack-
ham Graduate School since she left the University,
Douglas said her giving increased when she received her
first application for football tickets thirty years ago. “I had
been giving a certain amount each year, but when that ap-
plication came, I bumped it up.”
Douglas is clearly a huge sports fan. Describing one
weekend this fall, she said, “we went to a hockey game at
Yost on Friday night, then the San Diego State game Sat-
urday afternoon, watched Eastern Michigan play Toledo
Saturday night and then took in the Lions game Sunday
afternoon.” Phew. “I have to squeeze a lot in while I am
in town because I don’t get there very often.” She predicts
that the men’s basketball program will be ranked in the
top 25 this year, and is looking forward to attending the
upcoming UCLA-Michigan game.
One of Douglas’ contemporaries, Joan Neil (AB LSA, Ed.
Certt., ’52) sees her family’s support of the University as
“one small thing we can do,” to promote greater under-
standing in a climate of political rhethoric that is creat-
ing increasing divisiveness in this country. “I feel more
strongly now, in the current political and social culture we
live in, that we really need good teachers,” Neil said.
The Joan Nelson, Herbert R. Neil Jr. Endowed Schol-
arship was first awarded in 2003 and is a continuing
endowment in the School of Education for instate tuition
for certification. “We thought after this most recent politi-
cal campaign that perhaps the scholarship should go to
someone who plans to teach social studies,” she said with
a laugh.
The Neils have given to the University for quite some
time. Both are graduates of the University. Joan received
her degree in speech pathology, while her husband Her-
bert, earned his bachelors, and doctorate in Economics.
She worked as a school speech therapist at the elementary
level in Michigan after graduation, did some graduate
work in Rochester, NY., and has lived for the last three
decades in Deerfield, IL.
Joan Neil said that prior to initiating the endowment their
gifts usually went to LSA, but at the beginning of the capi-
tal campaign in 2000, Herbert
innovator a world of difference
told her “it was her turn,” meaning it was time to
give to the School of Education. “We talked to the devel-
opment director about our options, and I really believe in
education,” Neil explained, “so if we could help someone
who really wants to teach, then that’s what I wanted to
do.”
Her children’s experience in high school is the standard
she thinks all teachers ought to strive for, and that should
be supported financially. “I was very impressed with
my daughter’s history teacher, with her method, which
stressed theoretical as well as factual information, rather
than simply what my kids referred to as ‘multiple guess.’”
Neil said high school kids don’t always appreciate their
education at the time, but eventually they understand.
“When my daughter went on to college I remember her
saying that she could really appreciate that teacher now,
and she went on to major in history!”
Teaching that leaves that kind of an impression is what
Neil and her husband are supporting through their en-
dowed scholarship.
These donors play an integral role in helping the SOE
fullfill its mission of improving and fortifying K-16
education for all students by supporting important pro-
grams within the University like student financial aid,
professional service activities that bring today’s students
together with today’s practitioners, cutting edge technol-
ogy and research, and teacher preparation programs.
Creative giving ideas will always have a place in Univer-
sity development programs, but so too will individuals like
Jim Kamman, Mary Douglas and the Neils, who just give.

Development Notes
The School of Education relies heavily on major grants to fund much of its work not covered by the University budget. As
you can see by the long list of donors published in this issue, however, gifts from individuals constitute important support
for a wide variety of projects and activities, from student scholarships to faculty research.

Your year-end gift will assist these many endeavors and may help reduce your 2004 taxes. Of course, we advise consulting
your own tax advisor concerning your personal tax situation. In general, however, the following information may help your
decision making.

Tax Benefits
Your gift may provide you with federal and state income tax benefits:

* If you itemize deductions on your federal income tax return, you may be able to deduct your contribution to UM from
your adjusted gross income. In addition, gifts of appreciated property avoid long term capital gains tax. Check with your tax
advisor for deduction and capital gains tax requirements and limitations for your situation.

* Your state may also allow a credit or deduction. For example, Michigan residents may take a credit against state tax of
50 cents for each dollar of their gift to UM, with a maximum tax credit of $100 for taxpayers filing singly or $200 on a joint
return.

Year-End Gifts
To qualify for the 2004 tax year, checks must be in envelopes
postmarked on or before December 31, 2004 and received by
the UM Gift Processing Office by January 11, 2005. Checks
received after January 11th will be recorded as 2005 gifts.

Another option is to take advantage of our online giving service.

Friday, December 31, 2004, at 5:00 p.m. is the last day for a
donor to make a 2004 gift using Michigan Online Giving. The
gateway to Michigan Online Giving is found on the Office of
Development Web Site:

http://www.giving.umich.edu

If you’d like to discuss your gift in further detail, please contact

us at (734) 764-7563 or via email at educalum@umich.edu. The
School of Education welcomes gifts at this time of year and,
indeed, at any time of the year. We thank you for your generous
support in the past, and look forward to continuing our great
work with the help of our alumni and other benefactors.

Campaign Goals
Our programs of research, preparation, and outreach are unique for their multi- and interdisciplinary emphasis.
Undergraduate and graduate preparation programs reflect the marriage of subject matter knowledge with teaching
knowledge and skills, and research programs reflect the multiple perspectives that are so essential for dealing with
today’s education issues. Our vision for professional service involves a conscious interweaving of teaching, research,
leadership and service that makes a difference to teachers, administrators, and communities locally, nationally, and
internationally. Faculty and students have strong disciplinary backgrounds and the School is actively engaged in col-
laborations and joint programs with a variety of educational agencies and many other academic units on campus. As a
result, we provide the best preservice and inservice preparation in education leadership, research, and practice avail-
able anywhere. The University of Michigan has been a leader in education since 1879, when it founded the country’s
first professorship in the art and science of teaching. Our vanguard position as a leading School of Education gives us
both the privilege and the responsibility of setting a course for the future. We are poised to meet this challenge head-
on. Together we can work to unite teaching, research, and professional practice in the service of the public good,
investing new hope in education, and charting the course for another 125 years of global educational leadership at the
University of Michigan.

Contributions are needed in four areas:

Student and Programmatic Support, Faculty
Support, Technology, and Outreach Initiatives.
Your help in these areas will enrich and enlarge
the learning experience of School of Education
students, and our children.

their fellow alumni to serve as a liaison between the School
and the larger alumni body. A constituent group of the Uni-
versity Alumni Association, its agenda supports the agenda
of the Dean and the School through outreach and fundraising
activities.

One of the annual projects sponsored by the Education
Alumni Society Governing Board is to recognize excellence in
the profession through Distinguished Alumni Awards. Each
year the Awards Committee of the Board of Governors solicits
School of Education alumni to propose names of peers who
have made significant contributions to society, their profes-
sion, the School of Education, or the Education Alumni
Society.
The deadline for submitting nominations is August 1. Once a
slate of candidates is identified, one or more may be selected
by the Awards Committee appointed by the Alumni Board
of Governors. Awards will be conferred at the fall or spring
awards ceremony of the School of Education.
Fall Gathering is a yearly event that brings together School
of Education alumni from all over the country to celebrate
their connections with the School. Alumni get a chance to
re-connect with current and former faculty, students and each
other in a festive setting. After food and fellowship, the day
