Reflections Magazine Issue #67 - Winter 2008 | Page 2

Editorial from the president A Roadmap For The Future Since this issue of Reflections also includes our annual “President’s Report,” let me take this opportunity to report to you about some of the recent happenings at Siena Heights University. We are currently coming off a record fall enrollment, with increases in all three colleges. This is no small achievement in this current economic climate. I am grateful to our dedicated administration, faculty and staff for making this possible. And we met and surpassed our fundraising goal for the past fiscal year. We have many of you, our alumni and friends, to thank for that. Let me take this opportunity to do so. Some of the pages of this report that contain our donor lists will also recognize your generosity in a more specific way. While some of this issue reports on the achievements of the past, I am very much focused on the future. I recently unveiled my vision for the University to the Siena community and our Board of Trustees. My hope is this vision will become a roadmap for the future success of Siena Heights University. I look forward to sharing this vision with you in the coming months as we live our mission to its fullest! 2 2008 Annual President’s Report I invite you to share your time, talent and treasure with Siena Heights University when possible. Do you have a particular idea of how you can do this? If so, we would love to discuss this with you in the near future. “Think Higher” when considering ways you can make a difference to our students. Your contributions are literally changing lives! As we approach the Christmas season, my prayer for you all is for a peace-filled Christmas and joyous New Year. We are truly blessed, and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for Siena Heights University! Peace, Sister Peg Albert, OP, PhD President
