Mawby, Chairman and CEO W. K. Kellogg Foundation Family Community Leadership Workshop September 26, 1986 Denver, Colorado I am glad to be with you for this concluding session of the Family Community Leadership Conference. My only regret is that I have not been here for the full time so that I could meet more of you, but I appreciate so much your warm welcome and the chance to visit with many of you in this short period of time. I feel right at home with this kind of group because, as indicated, I have a rural background. deal in my life. Extension and 4-H have meant a great I was a 4-H club member and my mother was very active in the Michigan Extension Homemakers. I really credit the Extension home demonstration agent, the county agricultural agent and the district 4-H agent, along with my mother and dad, for encouraging me to become the first of my family to go to college. My wife, Ruth, was a county home demonstration agent, and I was an Extension agent, specialist, administrator, and volunteer. So Extension has been very much a part of our lives for a long period of time. My career and my personal interests have been very much involved with a lot of the issues and activities that are of concern to you. It has been over 20 years since I left Michigan State University to join the W. K. Kellogg Foundation. As one of my colleagues said at that time, I "traded in my academic robe for a foundation garment." My heart, however, is still very close to your concerns, and fortunately a lot of the philosophy and activities of this Foundation are similar to those that you and I share. I have often �2 confessed to some of my friends in home economics that if I were to be reincarnated in an Extension career, I would wish, at this point in the life of society, to become a State Leader for Home Economics Extension. I say that simply because it seems to me that if we look at perplexing concerns of American society, the emphases and purposes to which you are committed have greater potential for addressing some of those needs constructively than any of the other programs with which I am familiar. I want to congratulate everyone who has been a part of bringing us together on this occasion. some years ago. I first heard about the concept which led to FCL It was in 1978 or 1979 that I had the pleasure of meeting with Charline Warren and other officers of the National Extension Homemakers Council at the National 4-H Center in Washington, D.C. The FCL idea was just beginning to take form and it materialized dramatically through the years of initial impetus from the Extension Homemakers, and shepherded along by others like Eleanor Whittemore who have been important in the process. It is a partnership effort. Many different folks have been involved, and the Extension and volunteer partnership and collaboration are extremely important. Orville Young was one of the early Extension leaders on the regional and the national level to give it real endorsement, encouragement, and support. That collaborative partnership is symbolized by these name badges that simply tell you that I am Russ from Michigan. because all of us serve a common purpose. That is great We have the same objectives in mind, and each of us makes a particular contribution; so whether the label is volunteer or professional doesn't make any difference as long as we recognize that we do share a mission. To the six states that have been the pioneers, the forerunners and the experimenters, we express our special gratitude and admiration. We are �3 grateful to all of the people involved in so many ways in bringing about the FCL success. I salute all of you who have been a part of this process. A special tribute goes to the planning committee. seen them, and tolerated them this week. You have met them, In my brief military career at Camp Chaffe in Arkansas, I whitewashed rocks and served in an artillery unit. In artillery terms, your co-chairs would be a "BB" team--Bassett and Barron. practice, however, they have had the impact of a howitzer. In To Lois and Jim, who co-chaired this activity, and the full committee, we are grateful for a tremendous conference. Speaking for the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, we have been privileged indeed to be helpful to you by providing a bit of assistance in this experiment -- the development, testing, and evaluation which leads us to this national dissemination conference. The support by the Foundation for the Family Community Leadership program is just a part of a long-term commitment to people, families, communities, and leadership. Sometimes there is confusion about the relationship between the Kellogg Company and the W. K. Kellogg Foundation. The tie is simply one man -- W. K. Kellogg. Mr. Kellogg, back in 1906, quit his job at age 46 as the administrator of a hospital and started the Kellogg Company. He very early determined that whatever fortune he accumulated he would somehow dedicate to human benefit. In 1930, at the age of 70, he established this Foundation, and there is the tie; only people are important and that one man made that difference. We started out as a very small Foundation working in just seven counties in southcentral Michigan. health, libraries, and families. international in stature. largest in the country. We worked on problems of education, public Now, of course, we have grown to be The Foundation is now among the two or three In our fiscal year just ended on August 31, we had �4 assets of $3.1 billion, revenues of $81 million, and we are projecting for the current year an increase of 18 percent to $96 million dollars in support of about 600 different projects around the world. As an old farm boy, those figures alwa ys overwhelm me. Historically, the Foundation has always been concerned with leadership of all sorts to enable people in various settings and circumstances to contribute constructively to societal progress. So we have worked for years, and still do, with school boards, hospital boards, the United Way, the Urban League, and fellowship programs of various kinds. One example you may be familiar with is the Farmer's Study Program or the Agricultural Leadership Program that started on a small basis in one, then two, then five states and now serves in at least 23 different states around the country. Our concern is with encouraging people to take a greater role in shaping today and tomorrow. It is very natural, then, that the Foundation was excited by the concept of Family Community Leadership. of these words is tremendous. You recognize it -- just remind yourself of their importance occ asionally as you move forward. social unit in our society. The importance of each Family -- it is the basic We are beginning to appreciate to a greater extent some of the values embodied in strong families; values like discipline and hard work and ambition and self-sacrifice and patience and caring and love. We are beginning to realize with all of the changes in traditional family structures that those values are still tremendously important; as human individuals we need close and caring and loving relationships. While the details of f amily structure may change (and they have been changing for centuries), the basic notion is still valid. We have found in our programs that many people like to be students of the family, we find many who would like to be critics of the family, but we find too few who are advocates of the family. I am delighted that you are advocates for families. �5 Second is community. That's where we live. There has been a tendency for the past half-century to transfer responsibilities for important concerns from the individual and the family to someone else. In similar fashion, we have transferred responsibility from the local community to ever-higher levels of government. I think we are now appreciating the fact that a lot of those efforts have been less successful than we would hope, and to some extent we are beginning to see a transition back to local responsibility. It will be tough because we have become dependent upon grants from federal sources for all sorts of things in our schools, in urban development and other areas. Nonetheless, we are beginning to recognize that some of the wisest decisions are made closest to the problem. Communities, whether you define them as your local neighborhood or a local unit of government, up to the State, are going to become increasingly important in shaping the future. This means that the individual citizen will have increasing opportunities to make a difference at the community level on significant concerns. Family plus community plus leadership. There are lots of definitions of a leader, but I always think of a leader as someone who recognizes a need and then does something about it. a doer. It is much easier to be a critic than to be It is much easier to sit back and say, "Why doesn't the school board do this thing or the other?" "Why don't they do something about the quality of the water in our local river?" to criticize. "Why don't they do something?" It is easy It is much more difficult to move forward in constructive action, but that is what leaders do. Leaders come in all kinds and varieties with all sorts of caps and titles, and different circumstances require differences in those who assume leadership responsibilities. Each of those words -- Family, Community, and Leadership -- are tremendously important. You know a lot about FCL now. We are delighted, �6 simply overwhelmed, that 48 states plus Guam elected to come to this national dissemination workshop. year ago. I remember when we first started talking about this a Lois was always optimistic that everybody was going to come; the realists said if we could get 30 states it would be great. It's marvelous that there has been such an enthusiastic response. I have been asked to comment on plans for the future. say much about the future because you will determine that. I really cannot You will decide and you will be the key factor as to whether anything happens in your home state -- Alabama or Maryland or wherever. One of the realities is that foundations cannot do anything by themselves. We can only be helpful to you in addressing issues that you think are important. I suggest that if you reflect thoughtfully in addressing any issue, or in pursuing any opportunity, money is usually not the constraint. It is a part of the solution but usually not the limiting factor in making really important things happen. Only people are important. vision, commitment, skills and energy to make things happen. many of you comment that FCL has great potential. except as it's vested in you. People who have I have heard It really has none at all, It will do nothing unless you make it so. Speaking again for the Kellogg Foundation, we hope we can be a continuing helpful partner in pursuing what we regard as an extraordinary idea. As Jim has indicated, the planning grants will be available to you as a team in going back to your respective states to develop plans for the future if you subscribe to the stanzas on page 4.12 of your hymnal (FCL Handbook). Read page 4.12 and you will know exactly how to get a planning grant. I would indicate further that the Kellogg Foundation is prepared to consider assistance to those states that wish to develop a program based on the FCL experience and model. developed. The detailed guidelines have not yet been Dr. Gary King will be working on that from our perspective �7 along with people like Dr. Dan Moore, from Penn State, who will be joining us at the Foundation shortly. And we certainly will work with the program committee to develop those plans. At this point, however, the following points seem appropriate: 1. We will be prepared to provide grants to single states, or, if you feel that a collaborative effort of two or three or more states would be preferable, we would certainly consider that as a desirable option. 2. We will be concerned that the program you envision be built on the basis of these FCL materials, modified as appropriate to your state, to your communities, to your organizational structure, to your personalities and other appropriate factors. Basically, however, you should draw upon this rich reservoir of material based upon the experiences of many people in these six-state experimental efforts. 3. We will be concerned that you incorporate the essential components of the Family Community Leadership program. Those are on page 4.8 of the FCL Handbook and remember there are eight of them. In your own state you might want to modify some of them, and we wouldn't be concerned about that because experiences and materials of this sort do need to be adapted as well as adopted. However, we would expect each component to be thoughtfully addressed because each of them deals with a very significant element of the FCL format. 4. In the judgment of the program committee, one of the major needs for funding is for the expenses of volunteers, so we would be looking at the details of the budget to see how you address that need. 5. The Foundation will consider grants of up to $50,000 per state, probably spread over a two- or three-year period, based again upon your own program planning. �8 6. All of the t eams that request planning grants will be provided information regarding the guid elines for requesting further support. If and when you and your st ate team, with the assistance of a planning grant, come up with plans that you wish to have us consider, we will be anxious to hear from you. 1ve think this experiment in six st ates has been exciting, and we hope you will have opportunity to adopt and adapt -- do something in your respective st ates. We will be anx i ous to be helpful in bringing that about. In closing, I remind you that in our judgment only people are important. Sometimes as we look at all of the issues confront ing society we are almost overwhelmed by the future, by uncertainties, complexities, and challenges. Whenever I let myself get into that frame of mind as we look at all the options a va i l a bl e to the Foundation, I like to remind myself of a few lines that I l earned way back when. You may be famili ar with them: "I am only one, but I am one; I can't do everything, but I can do something; \fuat I c an do, I ought to do; And what I ou ght t o do, by the grac e of God, I will do." With reference to FeL, the potential is great, the time is right, it's future is you : 874c 11/5/86 We wish you Gods peed. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Mawby, President w. K. Kellogg Foundation at the GOVERNOR'S CONFERENCE ON AGRICULTURE Long's Convention Center Lansing, Michigan April 1, 1981 I All of us involved in and concerned with Michigan agriculture recognize the significance of this day and this conference. Agriculture is a very important and . stable component of our Michiga~'economy,often classified as "Michigan's No.2 industry." But for various reasons, agriculture's significance and potential are generally underappreciated by governmental officials; by leaders of business, industry, and the financial community; and by the general public. Therefore, we are grateful to you, Governor Milliken, for convening this conference, " to assess the cu rrent status of Mi chigan agriculture and �2 e v a l u a t ei t sp o t e n t i a lf o re x p a n s i o n~n f o re v e ng r e a t e r c o n t r i b u t i o n st oo u rs t a t e ' se c o n om y .

It's great to have these two important agricultural institutions working together so effectively. This meeting will benefit also from the Governor's Conference on Forestry held last year and I understand that because the broad range of interests and activities encompassed within the concerns of agriculture and natural resources make it difficult to give adequate attention to all aspects in one meeting, Michigan State University is convening a conference focusing more specifically on natural resources later this month. In combination, these efforts should be fruitful. There is no need for me to exhort this group on the importance of agriculture or the details' of its potential. It may be useful to remind ourselves, however, that U.S./ Michigan agriculture is in fact the envy of the world. Persons more thoughtful and knowledgeable than I have �4 developed explanations for the "miracle of American agriculture." In my judgment, two elements are of particular importance: First, our American agricultural enterprise is based upon economic concepts of entrepreneurship, free enterprise, profit. This is true both for the farm component of agriculture as well as those related agribusiness enterprises which serve farming and move farm products to consumers. Second, agriculture benefits from a a unique partnership in the working relationships among public and private institutions and resources. This partnership is evident in many ways -- policy decision-making, regulation, promotion, and particularly, research and Extension. In this latter case -- research and Extension -- leadership is provided by our system of land-grant universities. We are proud that Michigan State University is the pioneer land-grant institution and a model of national and international reputation. The system of agricultural experiment stations, funded largely with federal and state tax money, through �5 C o n g r e s sa n dt h es t a t el e g i s l a t u r ea n dc om p l em e n t e dw i t h s u p p o r tf romp r i v a t es o u r c e s ,g e ne r a t e st h ek n ow l e d g eb a s e f o ra g r i c u l t u r e .

Extension repr esents the process of two-way communication, from practitioner to researcher and from researcher to practitioner/user, on the farm, in the rural community, and in r elated ent erpris e. I have been pleased to learn that our Governor and his staff and our Legislature have tried to exercise prudent judgment in maintaining our research and Extension programs while coping with reduced state revenues. Despite their efforts, however, State appropriations for the Agricultural- Experiment Station and the Cooperative Extension Service have not kept pace with inflation. State appropriations for agricultural research and Ex t e n s i on represent a smaller share of farm income today than five or ten years ago. �8 This vndesirable trend jeopardizes both the position of Michigan agriculture relative to other states, and American agriculture in the world community. Such decrease in support sells short the future and should be redressed in the best long-term interests of Michigan's economy. Evidence is abundant that this is a wise and productive investment of public funds, reaping rich returns. In considering both research and Extension, we must be aware of the significant research and educational efforts of private industry. Very often experiment stations and the Cooperative Extension Service work in concert with private industry in carrying out research activities and educational programs. Such efforts should in every way be encouraged and expanded. �9 . In addition, we should make specific efforts in Michigan to mobilize the total educational or knowledge resources of our State to address the concerns of agriculture. We have already commented on our great land-grant university, Michigan State. But we need to rememb er that we have another great institution of higher education, the University of Michi gan, with superb resources in such fields as the physical and biological sciences, engineering, the health profess ions, the social sciences, and law. In addition, we have regional colleges and universities, community colleges, and private colleges and universities. We should consider more creative mobilization of the resources of these institutions, particularly those supported by tax revenues, in addressing the concerns of our Michigan economy and agriculture. �10 2. Michigan agriculture can be the focal point in a statewide effort to create jobs. A major concern in Michigan is the generation of new job opportunities. Some experts say·that the automobile industry and related businesses, so important to Michigan, will not employ in the future as many as in the past. Studies show also that small businesses generate the greatest number of jobs. We in agriculture must appreciate the changing role of agriculture ln our urbanizingindustrialized society. Nearly two-thirds of Michigan's farmers work off the farm at least part-time. Most new jobs in agriculture will be off the farm, but we should join with public and private forces, as well as exercising our own entrepreneurial skills, ln encouraging agribusiness enterprises which create new job opportunities for Michigan residents. �11 The excellent report "Michigan Agriculture Going Into the Eighties" by John N. Ferris and Karl T. Wright of Michigan State University provides basic information relative to prospective domestic and export demands, the comparative advantages and disadvantages for Michigan agriculture, with effects of changes in energy and transportation costs and the agricultural infrastructure. A creative analysis of such information suggests many opportunities for the development of ag-related enterprises. Some of the committee reports address this issue, at least to some extent. The conference sponsored by Detroit Edison last fall was an interesting effort in this direction which should be encouraged and pursued. If such potential is to be realized, agriculture increasingly must develop linkages with other groups. For example, we must work In concert with credit �i n s t i t u t i o n sa n dw i t hv e n t u r ec a p i t a l i s t ss ot h e y h a v e a na p p r e c i a t i o nf o ro p p o r t u n i t i e si nM i c h i g a n a g r i c u l t u r e . 3 .

First, Michigan is blessed with a great diversity of agricultural enterprise. We produce a great variety of products and rank high in the production of many. But often it would seem that this diversity has been a deterrent to coh esive action . Too often commodity groups and specialized interests dissipate most of their energy sparrin g with each other. Are there ways in which we can more effectively work together so that the richn ess of th e variety of our agriculture will be a positive eleQenL, not a problem? Second, we must also develop a cohesive voice for Michigan agriculture. At present, we have many organizations speaking for their limited interests and needs. In the public decision-making process, many voices can lead to confusion. I suggest th at �14 one goal of this conference be the development of a structure which can speak comprehensively and persuasively for the diverse interests of Michigan agriculture. Finally, I would suggest the development of an informal leadership network In agriculture, in which state leaders in agriculture -- from government, from research and the University, from industry, farming, banking -- can get together to explore common concerns and interests. This would not be a decision-making group, but rather would promote understanding and establish informational and working networks. In California there is such an organization called the Agricultural Bulls. While I am not suggesting that name for Michigan, that organizatioh serves the function and purpose I have in mind. �15 4 .

Such efforts should be doubled and redoubled, In a host of settings. planned for the 1981 }1ichigan S ta te The new feature Fair, "Agricul ture ' s Amazing Acre," is another such effort that could be replicated in every county -- and be just the start of ingenuous ways of telling a g r i c u l t u r e ' s remarkable story. There are indeed "Good Things Gr-owi.n g in Michigan" -- and everyone should know. I suspect that such a sp eci el emphasis is particularly timely now. We see it in the growing concerns for the quality of environment, the preservation of natural space and green belts, the "return to the land" movement. In visiting Europe, one senses that as a society matures, there is a growing appreciation for "the finer things of life" -- art; music; history; the joys of nature, forests, the out-of-doors. �18 To the end that the larger society of which agriculture is a vital part will be well served, leaders in agriculture should fost er, not fight, efforts which responsibly address the public's concern for our natural resources and th eir wise management. III In summary, as we mov e to th e s pe c i fi c s of th e ei ght committ ee reports, I suggest four over-riding is sue s: 1. expanded investments in r esearch and Exten sion; 2. job generation related to agriculture; 3. aggressive and cohe sive le ad ership; and 4. progr a ms to d evelop i nformed de cisio n -maker s a n d citizens. �19 In convening this meeting, Governor Milliken stated "the conference goal will be to design a plan to develop our food and fiber capabilities to their fullest." That's a big challenge -- but one which will be met by noon tomorrow. The greater challenge then comes -- to implement the plans, through persistent and patient follow-up. The greatest danger in efforts of this kind is that, after the flush of concerted d ebate, drafting and compromise, we return to the busyness of our regular lives and things go on as usual. I sense that you are too committed and concerned to let that happen. I wish you Godspeed. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

One such which frequently recurs to me are these lines from Edna St. Vincent Millay - �-8The world stands out on either side No wider than the heart is wide Above the world is stretched the sky,-No higher than the soul is high. The heart can push the sea and land Farther away on either hand; The soul can split the sky in two, And let the face of God shine thru. But East and West will pinch the heart That cannot keep them pushed apart; And he whose soul is flat -- the sky Will cave in on him by and by. The world stands out -- no wider than the heart is wide. Any reasonable person who reflects thoughtfully on today and tomorrow -- on where mankind is and where we're going -- finds the prospect sobering. Recently I read a disturbingly pessimistic -- but perhaps distressingly realistic -- book, An Inquiry Into the Human Prospect, by Robert L. Heilbroner. Heilbroner suggests that three issues above all others shape the current human predicament.

KELLOGG FOUNDATION Memorandum October 8, 1991 RE: Speech on Philanthropy and Volunteerism at Butterworth Hospital Joel and I have discussed your remarks for the Butterworth Hospital speech on October 15, 1991. This is a speech that will fit well with your flexible, informal style. There is a 7:45 ron breakfast scheduled that morning for you and the "leaders" at Butterworth (I am assuming this is the upper management group). The breakfast is set to be informal, and you will be given 8 brief orientation about major issues facing the hospital by William Gonzales, the president and chief executive officer. The audience itself will number about 75 people. They have allotted an hour and 15 minutes for your remarks and questions. With the direction given by the letter of confirmation -- "this group will be very inte rested in learning more about the Kellogg Foundation and the directions you see volunteerism and philanthropy taking in the future" -- and the questions that they have enclosed, Joel and I would reconunend the following outline. I. Butterworth's Rich History in Volunteerism and Philanthropy. Joel has provided a more detailed outline of Butterworth's history in volunteerism and philanthropy which follows. A. Philanthropy and Volunteerism in Butterworth's History. 1. The hospital's very name comes from a philanthropist. 2. Ri chard E. E. Butterworth, having been made wealthy by the great gypsum deposits that lay under his land along the Grand River, donated the land at the corner of Bostwick and Michigan for the site of the hospital. He made a bequest of $30,000 in cash and land to insure that the hospital could be construct ed. 3 . But Butt erwort h 1-.' 8 5 mo r e than a g iver, he was a l so a n active vo lun te er . lIe traveled in Ame ri ca a nd abroad t o co l lect i dea s for building t he hosp it al, and was personally involved ill the de s i gn i n g of the building. All of this he did without compensation. �2 B . Th eG row th o fB u t t e rw o r t h 1 .

Mawby, President W. K. Kellogg Foundation Battle Creek, Michigan, USA September 14, 1981 Institute for Food Chemistry and Technology University of Helsinki, Finland I am delighted to be here today for this special ceremony which recognizes the cooperative efforts of the many individuals and organizations who have assisted the University of Helsinki in developing its impressive programs in food science. I bring official greetings and good wishes from the Board of Trustees of the Foundation as well as myself, and I of course convey to you also special greetings from Dr. Gary W. King. The W. K. Kellogg Foundation very much appreciates its association of nearly two decades with the University and we have been pleased to contribute to the important work of the University and to that of other institutions In your country. We are grateful for your generous recognition of the role our Foundation has been privileged to play. �While this is not my first trip to your beautiful country, it is Ruth's first opportunity to be here more than briefly. It is always a special occasion to visit Finland and share in your strong sense of purpose and joy of living. Ruth and I have spent two delightful weeks, thanks to the generous hospitality of many Finnish friends. We were honored to have Dr. Koivistoinen visit us In Battle Creek last summer. That visit also gave me an opportunity to show Dr. Koivistoinen my own small farm at Hickory Corners, Michigan. We now have had an opportunity to visit his strawberry farm in Suonenjoki, to spend delightful days in the North, and to enjoy days with friends -- old and new -- In Helsinki. This trip has also provided me with an opportunity to visit with leaders of the various programs which have received Kellogg Foundation support in Finland including 2 �the National Research Council for Agriculture and Forestry's fellowship program; the Finnish 4-H Federation's program to train professionals and youth leaders of 4-H groups; and the Martha Organization's program to strengthen its work in home economics educ ation with particular attention to the problems of young families. As you may know, the Kellogg Foundation was founded by breakfast cereal pioneer W. K. Kellogg in 1930. He was an extremely succ essful businessman whose company has expanded worldwide, including the production and marketing of cornflakes and other products here in Finland and in other European countries. Mr. Kellogg gave his personal fortune to the Kellogg Foundation, and in the past 51 years the Foundation has made grants of nearly $600 million for projects in health, education, and agriculture on four continents. 3 �The Foundation's programming is quite broad today. However, Mr. Kellogg's first concern was with people and he often observed that, above all other concerns, agriculture is the basic, critical human enterprise. Consequently, the Foundation which bears his name has long sought to encourage agricultural sciences and technology and their application. We realize, as did Mr. Kellogg, that without attention and success in food production, processing, and distribution, many of society's achievements in health care, education, the arts, and other areas which contribute to betterment of the human condition would not be possible. People must be nourished with good food in order to survive and prosper, to live a good life -- this challenge remains the most demanding concern of our world as we move toward the threshold of the next century. The Kellogg Foundation has made grants of nearly U.S. $2.5 million in Finland since 1963, and nearly one-third of 4 �that has been for support of the University's Institute for Food Chemistry and Technology. Our original grant in 1964 was to assist the University in establishing the Institute. At that time, expanded training programs in food science and technology were judged to be a high priority need for Finland by University officials and members of your National Research Council for Agriculture and Forestry. We were pleased to extend Foundation support in 1976 to increase the Institute's programs to develop new specialties ln the curriculum, and to make possible new teaching positions in the Institute. Over that span of time, the Institute has developed a remarkable record of University, governmental, and business support to carry forward its important food science work in research and teaching. We have been impressed indeed with the character and quality of the various activities being pursued by the Institute 5 �as well as its wide range of support from the University, governmental sources, and from Finnish industry. This ceremony today is one more indication of how successful you have been in achieving, and recognizing, these important ties between public and private endeavors and purposes. My compliments to the University and the Institute for hosting the International Symposium on the role of food science and technology. I am certain that one long term r e s u l t of the symposium will be to make research and teaching programs more r elevant to the needs of the food industry and the consuming public. It is good to see that the symposium includes participants from widely varied positions of responsibility, but with common conc erns and goals. 6 �On behalf of the Kellogg Foundation, I salute you and your achievements, and thank you for the special relationship s we enjoy and cherish. 7 �August 28, 1981 (t1 /JC.-t The W.

IRTRODUCTIOH OF HRlU> TABLE It is indeed a pleasure to introduce to you a man whose vision for Detroit's journey to greatness is anchored in a deep understanding of the diligence and hard work necessary to overcome adversity. His personal journey poverty is a story of overcoming the obstacles of and discrimination while also working tenaciously to help others. A native of Detroit's east side, Dennis Archer began his first job at age eight serving 8S a golf caddy, pin sitter at a bowling alley, and floor sweeper at a bakery. College would have been out of the question if he had not aupported himself with numerous jobs before graduating from western Michigan University. After graduating, Archer taught children with learning disabilities in the Detroit Public Schools for five years. While teaching, he earned a law degree by attending night school at the Detroit College of Law. In 1965, after 15 years as a trial lawyer, Governor James J. Blanchard appointed Archer to the Michigan Supreme Court. He was the first African- American to sit on that court in nearly 20 years and only the second in Michigan history. Considered one of the nation's most respected attorneys because of his highly successful trial work and his presidencies of the National Bar Association, the State Bar of Michigan, and the Wolverine Bar Association, Dennis Archer was named one of the 100 Most Influential Black Americans by Ebony Magazine in 1984. 1 �• Justice Archer worked vigorously to discourage drug use by young people by or~zing the M.E.L.L. (Medical, Education, Legal, and Law Bnforcement) Team Against Drugs. Kore than 55,000 Detroit Public School studan.ts have participated in this program. In addition to his work with youth, he spearheaded a drive to encourage the employment of minority lawyers in corporations throughQut the united States. Resigning from the Michigan supreme court in late 1990, Archer joined the law firm of Dickinson, Wright, Moon, Van Dusen & Freeman as a partner, and has since worked with hundreds of Detroit citizens and dozens of community organizations to search for solutions· for Detroit. As mayor, Dennie Archer wants to lead a community-wide campaign for Detroit's future. Harried to Trudy Duncombe Archer since 1967, they have two BOns currently attending ~he University of Michigan. Ladies and gentlemen, it is with great pleasure and honor that I introduce to you the mayor of Detroit, Mayor Dennis Archer. 2 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Mawby President, W. K. Kellogg Foundation at LUTHER COLLEGE Decorah, IO"\oTa May 21, 1972 I I am delighted to be with you at Luther College today. I appreciate very much the privilege of participating in the program of this l07th annual Commencement. May I first express my congratulations to the members of the graduating class of 1972. For each of you, this is an occasion long awaited, one of those instances in a person's life when he can have both a sense of satisfaction in past achievements and a sense of exc i t ement for his future. I feel privileged to be sharing this day with you. I would add a word of congratulations, also, to all of those who have contributed in a significant way to making this day a reality for you. I think first of parents and families, and in some instances husbands or wives and children, who in many instances have sacrificed and subordinated their personal interests to yours in making it possible for you to study at Luther and who are entitled to a similar sense of prideful satisfaction on this occasion . And I think, also, of all of the people who are Luther College---those who have gone before, through more than a century, in establishing, building, and sustaining this institution, and vho have earned for Luther College an enviable reputation in the field of higher education, and those who currently carry forward this work, .;2 1 - "7 • �2 the Regents, f'acu.Lt.y , officers and staff, alumni and f'r Lends of Luther who provide support in one way or another. Christian, liberal arts colleges have, are, and must continue to be a significant component of our pluralistic system of higher education. Your efforts have made this sc-i-and will continue to do so in the future. To all of you I express congratulations and compliments, for you, too, can take pride in this happy occasion. II This year, 1972, as a year divisible by four, brings again the peculiarly American phenomenon of the presidential campaign. We are now in the primary phase of this quadrennial occurrence, a phase characterized by much "pointing with pride" and "viewing with alarm." Something in the American mentality of recent years causes us to do much more viewing .-li th alarm than pointing "lith pride, which seems an unfair commentary upon our American way of life. For, while I would certainly agree ,OTi th President Lincoln I s dictum at Gettysburg, "It is for us ... to be dedicated ... to the unfinished work ... " It is true that we have much unfinished business in fulfilling the American dream. the same time, there is m~ch At that is good and right and just in our society at this point in time, and, more importantly in the directions .ole 're movf.ng , and in commitments for the future. Among the useful features of the presidential selection process, if one can discern gems of wisdom in the f'LowLng rhetoric, is the identification of issues significant to our times. Certainly, one such to which all of us wou.l.d subscribe is the quest for peace. Basic to this is progress in �3 hum an h ~ som ehowl e a r n i n gt ol i v eon ew i t h h mu tu a lr e s p e c tand ana p p r e c i a t i o nf o rc omm o nandd i v e r g e n t rT ea r et h i n k i n go ft h e m ~ l o c a lcommun i t i e s , ~ ~ w i t h ~ wh e th e r o rt h ewo r ld n e ighbo rhood .

And as population increases, the pressure on resources and the abuses to environment a.ccelerate. Man's concern with population growth is not nev!. Aristotle warned that, " ... neglect of an effective birth control policy is a never failing source of poverty, which in turn is the parent of revolution and crime." billion people in the world. Today there are over 3 1/2 Experts p!-edict a doubling, to between 6 and 7 billion, by the end of the century, just 28 years from now. As we view the wor-ld scene and our concern for quality of life in the future, the greatest challenge--even an imperative--is to reduce the rate of popUlation growth. Even a 1% growth rate, a doubling in 70 years, will be unacceptable unless all of mankind is willing to accept living standards inferior to those some of us already kno"T. Experts state the argument cogently: If population doubles anQ if the goal is an increase in the standard of living to the average of that in the United States today, t he drain on the world supply of natural resources will be more than 70 times that of 1950 and the drain on the total biosphere 6 to 8 times that of today. Our planet simply cannot tolerate a continuing insult of that magnitude. 2. Food supply: Since 1950, worldwide agricultural production has been increasing at a rate slightly less than 3%, vrhile the population increase has been slightly more than 2%. Thus, increases in food supplies are roughly equating to population �5 g row th r a t e s . ~ t h i se s s e n t i a l l ym a i n t a i n s s t a t u squo ,i t do e sn o tg i v ec o n s i d e r a t i o nt ow i d e s p r e a dm a l n u t r i t i o n and und e rnou r i shm en t wh i ch c h a r a c t e r i z esom etw o t h i r d so ft h e p e o p l e so ft h ew o r l d .

For the first time in history, decisions knowingly made by one species (man) determine the number and variety of all other species. The heritage of all of the physical and biological evolution of the planet is ours alone; no other species can consider or affect its own destiny. continues with the question: of biological evolution? Dr. Handler "Is Homo sapiens, as we know him, the end Is man, the first product of evolution capable of controlling his own evolution, to put an end to that evolution? another evolutionary blind alley?" His answer: "Perhaps." I am less pessimistic and feel the situation is manageable. reminds us: Are we As Rene DuBos "Man makes himself through enlightened choices that enhance his humanness ... " Man makes his own dreams. If we want to translate the dream of environmental quality into reality, we can. It is true, we face hard choices, tough decisions, the imperative of practicing that which is necessary to implement what we preach, but do it we can--if we will. As students at Luther you have been fortunate, for in the beauty of this setting, the commitment of the faculty, and the emphases of the institution, you have had opportunity to shape values and attitudes, a sense of cownitment, patterns of behavior consistent with the good life--with. good defined in the best Christian sense. Sometimes in the face of a problem of this complexity and magnitude, the individual becomes almost overwhelmed. In such circumstances, I find it helpful to remind myself of these ' lines with which you may be familiar: �10 I am only one, but I am one; I can't do everything, but I can do something; What I ean do, I ought to do; And what I ought to do, by the grace of God, I will do. If each of us will do what we can do and ought to do, our dream of environmental quality can come true. As graduates today, you join a long line of distinguished alumni of Luther College. I wish you well. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Mawby Chairman and Chief Executive Officer W.K. Kellogg Foundation July 30, 1985 Governor Blanchard, Mr. Herbert, Dr . Zeikus, members of the MBl Board of Directors, media representatives, ladies and gentlemen: I am very pleased to be here today to be a part of these eagerly anticipated groundbreaking ceremonies for the construction of the Michigan Biotechnology Institute's permanent facilities. The significance of this symbolic ceremony cannot be overstated. But as we all know, ground for the Institute was really broken more than four years ago with the idea for its creation. Our corning together now signifies the partnership that i! the Michigan Biotechology Institute. It is the collective energies of the knowledge resources of our state's leading universities and colleges, the catalytic strengths of state government, the financial resources of private foundations and corporations, and the dedicatea personal drive of hundreds of individuals. The Michigan Biotechnology Institute is linking all of these resources to expand our state's forest and agricultural industries, create jobs, and diversify and bolster the state's economy . It will pursue ways to safeguard Michigan's vital natural resources through developing effective systems for handling industrial wastes; and improving fuel, chemical, and materials production. It will turn world attention to Michigan as the source for what is the newest, �.~ (2) the finest, and the most promising in biotechnology research and the application of that research. It will be a magnet, as firms are drawn to locate where "the action is." We believe the fiscal support that the Kellogg Foundation is giving to the Michigan Biotechnology Institute is evidence of wise stewardship of our financial resources. We know that the Institute in turn will be a wise steward of the abundant natural, human, and institutional resources with which it is entrusted. Thank you and congratulations on this important occasion. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The sector is made up of six basic types of organizations: 1. Educational organizations -- private elementary and secondary schools t colleges t and universities.

Such collaboration of private philanthropy with public institutions and programs is going on in all of our communities, to the advantage of all. The best observations tend to be at the community level -- in education, child care and living for child abuse the elderly, prevention, substance abuse, intergenerational initiatives, independent the cu I tural and performing arts, and a host of other examples. A concern that I would share with you is that, unless we are careful in such collaborative efforts, they will, in a sense, be "one-way." Public officials are anxious to mobilize and direct private resources to "their chosen objectives." philanthropy available relates in for to the They are not always anxious to be helpful to private addressing such philanthropic treatment of deliberations s till underway. charitable contributions. taken are usually erosive, concerns purposes. as The charitabl e increasing cur r en t the resources evidence c on tr i b u t i on s in the of this budge t While r he t o ri.c on b ehalf of phil an t hr o py , and volunte erism invasive, our various legislative skirmishes at is us ua l l y effusiv e, r es trict ive, ac t ion s and discouraging.

Mawby at Battle Creek High School National ~onor Society Installation Ceremony M3Y 4, 1987 I Delighted to be with you to celebrate this happy occasion -- induction of new members in the National Honor Society. Indeed an occasion to celebrate. You can be proud -- and we are indeed proud of you. To you who are inductees, I say \ffiLL nONE~ You have excelled academically have developed qualities of character which we admire have demonstrated willi rrgness and ability to assume responsibilitites of leadership have given yourself in service to others. All others had similar opportunity -- you did exceptionally well: talent, inherent ability, support and encouragement, discipline, hard work. We salute you~ �2 You have not done it alone *parents, family, brothers, and sisters *teachers and others in school *friends -- your age or any age On this occasion you should express thanks to them. He celebrate:: II Couldn't resist invitation -- am a member What might t say -- or share sitting around a campfire, r apping a bout life, four thoughts: (1) Dedicate to lif e-long pattern of learning: Not just courses, credits, credentials Some lifelong learners -- not finish high school, but vital, inquiring, interested Some tragically unlearned have degrees LEARN -- always, about everything �3 (2) Develop a world-wide perspective John Donne reminds us "No man is an island •.• (we know that, but don't respond) travel at home Edna St. Vincent Millay The world stands out on either side No wider than the he art is wide; Above the world is stretched the sky,-No higher than the soul is hi gh. The heart can push the sea and land Farther away on either hand; The soul can split the sky in two, And let the face of God shine thru. But East and West will pinch the heart That cannot keep them pushed apart; And he whose soul is flat--the sky Will cave in on him by and by. �4 (3) Be involved constructively Easy to be critical, more difficult to do something B.C. All a bhor apartheid -- easy to demonstrate and sell stock -- tougher to do something to better the lives of blacks there (4) Finally - an idea to reflect on: Real mark of a person's life -- during a nd a f t e r -- is determined by ways in which optional time is spent career community public service (politics) �5 I I I Ru th and I h av ead e a rf r i e n d ,M a ry M o r r i s , who t e l l sa s t o r yf romh e r t e a c h i n gd a y s : (now80 y e a r so l d ,t a u g h ta tS o u t h e a s tJ u n i o rH igh S choo l ) Fo rm e rs t u d e n t-"You w a s my E n g l i s ht e a c h e rand you w a s So -t oyou whom w e hono r-you i s oo ~ oo ~ C o n g r a t u l a t i o n s-w e l l don e ,t ot h i sp o i n t .

THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS ARE MORE THAN MONEY GIVERS. THEY ALSO SERVE AS CONVENERS FOR IMPORTANT COMMUNITY MEETINGS, AN "HONEST BROKER" TO HELP BUILD TEAMS OF . ORGANIZATIONS TO SOLVE PROBLEMS, IN SHORT, A CATALYST FOR CHANGE. SINCE THEY SERVE ALL OF THE NON-PROFITS IN THE COMMUNITY, THEY CAN BRING ALL OF THEM TOGETHER TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.

WHEN WE LOOK AT THE MICHIGAN COMMUNITY FOUNDATION YOUTH PROJECT, WE SEE ALL OF THESE FUNCTIONS OF THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION BEING CALLED INTO PLAY. BUT WE ALSO SEE COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS AS A MANUFACTURER OF NEW PHILANTHROPY AND NEW PHILANTHROPISTS.

The program is funded by a $10.2 million grant from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek -- one of the largest single grants MSU has received from a private foundation. The grant was formally accepted today (10/14/88) by the University's Board of Trustees. In related action, the Board approved the appointment of James C. Votruba as assistant provost for lifelong education. Votruba is currently acting vice president for academic affairs and provost at the State University of New York at Binghampton. "The Kellogg Foundation grant enables MSU to become a national model in pioneering new lifelong learning possibilities just as it earlier provided a model for the land-grant university," said MSU President John DiBiaggio. "Lifelong education will become prominent alongside research and traditional instruction at the �Page 2 center of this great university. It moves lifelong education to the heart of the institutional mission." "Currently, the nation's higher education system prepares young people to enter the workforce with only moderate attention given to the continuing demands they face as employees, employers, and citizens," said Russell G. Mawby, the Foundation's chairman and chief executive officer. "Increasingly, people of all ages are seeking opportunities to continue their educations. We are confident that MSU can significantly influence the future direction and development of lifelong learning programs, and create models that can and will be replicated elsewhere." DiBiaggio described the renaissance as "a continuing partnership between MSU and the Kellogg Foundation" in serving the people of Michigan and said that it complements the Foundation's stated goal: to "help people help themselves." DiBiaggio also noted that lifelong education is a high priority for Michigan Governor James Blanchard who, in his 1988 "State of the State" message, said: "Lifelong learning must become highly valued and an urgent priority for everyone in Michigan. In 1988, we are going to take steps without precedent in the nation to meet that challenge." DiBiaggio said that the lifelong education thrust fits well into the priorities of MSU's first university-wide Capital Campaign, "MSU 2000: Access to Opportunity." The five-year campaign seeks to raise $160 million in private funding for the University. �Page 3 National Campaign Chair Robert D. Rowan, chairman of Freuhauf Corp. in Detroit, said: "Through this generous grant, doors will be opened to those who wish to earn an education, to seek new jobs, and to enrich their lives and their society. This is a people-oriented venture, a people-oriented university, and a people-oriented campaign." Judith E. Lanier, acting assistant provost for lifelong education and dean of the College of Education, led the effort to reorganize and expand lifelong education at MSU over the last four years and was the primary author of the grant proposal. She described lifelong education as a holistic "cradle to grave" approach to education which takes early learning and its effects on late learning into account. This includes the needs of youth, especially youth at risk, as well as the continuing education needs of adults. She noted that technological and social changes throughout the world have escalated the nation's awareness of the need to renew education. "To face the continuing economic challenge, we must become a learning society where lifelong learning is a highly valued priority," she said. "MSU intends to make itself a powerful example of the new educational ideal that promotes 'learning to learn' -education that does not end with a diploma or a degree, but which instead encourages continued learning of what one needs or desires throughout a lifetime." Industrial and governmental leaders, especially in Michigan, �Page 4 recognize that renewing and extending education into the adult years is crucial to the continuing economic and social health of society, according to Lanier. Michigan is an ideal laboratory, she said, for it ranks among the states most disrupted by the nation's rapid shift from a low-tech manufacturing economy to a service and high-tech economy. "Such shifts require workers to update skills already learned and often to learn entirely new ones," Lanier said. Continuing economic changes will require all citizens to gain heightened capacity for learning to learn. The Kellogg grant will fund several major thrusts in lifelong education at MSU: *Increased college and faculty participation in lifelong education by placing responsibility for it in the Office of the Provost, through the new assistant provost for lifelong education, and in the offices of all major administrators across the University. "This affirms that lifelong education at MSU is one of the fundamental academic functions of the University and that the colleges, departments, and schools are ultimately responsible for carrying it out," said Lanier. "It becomes an integral part of our academic mission ." Most lifelong education programs (LEP) have already been reorganized so that they are jointly administered by various academic and nonacademic units with common interests and areas of expertise. For example, WKAR radio and television is jointly administered with the College of Communication Arts and Sciences; LEP library services with the MSU library; and executive and �Page 5 insurance programs within the College of Business. Central LEP administrative offices will be moved to the Hannah Administration Building while several important LEP support offices will continue to be housed in the Kellogg Center. *The establishment of six regional Lifelong Education Exchanges located throughout the state. The exchanges will be closely linked to and, in some cases, share facilities with the Cooperative Extension Service. Lanier said the exchanges will serve a "brokering function" by "making educational needs within each region known to the University and making educational services of all kinds available to potential users in each region." *The establishment of a Center on Teaching for Lifelong Learning. The Center will conduct research on educational policy and practice related to lifelong learning. It will be jointly administered by the College of Education and will work closely with the already-existing MSU Institute for Research on Teaching. ''(The expansion of information technology facilities in order to provide educational opportunities and services in the most effective and efficient ways. This includes expanding teleconferencing and instructional TV facilities on campus and in the regional exchanges, improving access to data base networks and modernization of the MSU library's catalogue, and providing statewide access to it. *The initiation of a series of demonstration projects, in �Page 6 cooperation with local and regional educational institutions. Such projects would be targeted toward fulfilling pressing social needs such as those of at-risk youth. *The initiation of a pilot program to provide lifelong education programs to selected professional groups in Michigan. Targeted professions include business, health and medicine, public policy officials, education and engineering. This will be a cooperative venture among several MSU colleges and units. The partnership in lifelong education between the Kellogg Foundation and MSU dates back to 1949 with a grant to MSU for construction of the University's Kellogg Center, which became the flagship of similar continuing education centers around the country. One of the most heavily-used buildings on campus, the Center houses numerous continuing education activities and hosts more than 200 conferences and 300,000 visitors annually. Earlier this year, the Kellogg Foundation made a $5.1 million grant to MSU toward expansion and renovation of the building. The Foundation is a major contributor to MSU; over the years, it has granted a total of $59.7 million to the University (including today's $10.2 million). The W. K. Kellogg Foundation, established in 1930 to "help people help themselves," has distributed more than $1 billion in support of programs in agriculture, education, and health. Areas of emphasis within those broad fields include adult continuing education; community-based, problem-focused health services; a �Page 7 wholesome food supply; and broadening leadership capacity of individuals. Projects in opportunities for youth are concentrated mainly in Michigan; support for economic development projects is provided only in Michigan. The Foundation is today among the largest private philanthropic organizations in the world. It supports programs in the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean, and southern African countries. Limited worldwide involvement is achieved through international networks of activities related to the Foundation's programming interests. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

In nearly four decades at the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, Andrew has earned a special place in the hearts and memories of all of us, with his distinctive style and engaging ways. One thinks first of the daring, the flamboyance, the audacity of his trend-setting pace in men's fashions. Few people can equal Andy's reputation when it comes to style of dress ... fortunately ... And few can match his performan~e as a distinguished sports analyst ... always predicting the Detroit Tigers to win the pennant. One cannot find a more loyal and persistent Michigan fan -- although he's been very quiet this basketball season. Andy is a virtual walking encyclopedia of sports trivia. It's amazing -- he can recall that the Michigan Wolverines trounced the Michigan State Spartans 55 to nothing in 1947 but can't remember whether the staff meeting tomorrow is at 9:30 or 2. But spectator only he is not -- he is an avid participant as well in active games of all kinds. Today he reigns as the �2 unquestioned star of our Foundation racquetball squad, playing with a vigor and an abandon that has earned for him the admiring moniker "The Gazelle." He has pursued with no less dilig ence and enthusiasm his professional career, a faithful, hard-working employe e who stays awake nights planning various strategies. Some have felt it would be better if he stayed awake days. In spinning his programmatic strategies he is genuinely a modern philosopher -- he redoubles his efforts after losing sight of his objectives. But he always cuts through any confusion that may arise over statements he makes. Roused from a somnambulant moment of meditation during Foundation programming meetings, he will enjoin us, "How can I tell you what I think until I hear what I have to say?" That sort o f lo gic is hard to argue against. Seriously, Andy -- as all assembled here well know -- has made a distinctive and distinguished contribution through his various responsibilities with the Foundation. His reputation is international, his contributions are innumerable, his friends are legion. we love you. Andrew, we admire you, we respect you, While your role at the Foundation is changing, we look forward to your continuing service as a Senior Program Consultant and Director of the Kellogg National Fellows Program for the remainder of this year.

VINCENT MILLAY THE WORLD STANDS OUT ON EITHER SIDE No WIDER THAN THE HEART IS WIDE; ABOVE THE WORLD IS STRETCHED THE SKY)-No HIGHER THAN THE SOUL IS HiGH. THE HEART CAN PUSH THE SEA AND LAND FARTHER AWAY ON EITHER HAND; THE SOUL CAN SPLIT THE SKY IN TWO) AND LET THE FACE OF GOD SHINE THRU. BUT EAST AND WEST WILL PINCH THE HEART THAT CANNOT KEEP THEM PUSHED APART; AND HE WHOSE SOUL IS FLAT--THE SKY WILL CAVE IN ON HIM BY AND BY. THE WORLD STANDS OUT NO WIDER THAN THE HEART IS WIDE. As YOU GRADUATE AND MOVE ON EITHER IN YOUR CHOSEN CAREER OR TO FURTHER STUDY) OUR WORLD IS CONFRONTED WITH SEVERAL LARGE) OVER-RIDING) PERVASIVE) VALUE-LADEN PROBLEMS. As JUST ONE EXAMPLE) HERE AT HOME WE'RE CONFRONTED WITH TOUGH CHOICES: ON ONE HAND) HOW TO REVITALIZE AMERICA'S FALTERING SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC SYSTEM; ON THE OTHER) HOW TO RESPOND RATIONALLY AND RESPONSIBLY TO UNPARALLELED 4 �TECHNOLOG ICAL CHANGE AND THE EVER -GROW ING DEMANDS OF A HUNGRY AND TROUBLED WORLD .

AFTER THE SECOND WORLD AR~ MORE R IGHT FEWER THAN 15 PERCENT OF AMER ICAN 5 �HOUSEHOLDS HAD INCOMES OF $15 JOOO J IN TODAY'S DOLLARS. By THE LATE 70sJ MORE THAN ONE-HALF ENJOYED SUCH AN INCOME. THE REALITY FOR ALL OF US -- AND ESPECIALLY MEMBERS OF THIS GRADUATING CLASS IS THAT SUCH A RATE OF PROGRESS IN THE YEARS AHEAD WILL BE DIFFICULT -- SOME WOULD SAY You IMPOSSIBLE. You FACE A DIFFERENT WORLD. GREW UP IN AN AGE WHEN ECONOMIC PROGRESS SEEMED AUTOMATIC. You ARE MATURING IN AN ERA CHARACTERIZED BY ERRATIC INFLATION AND FALTERING ECONOMIC GROWTH. You WERE BORN AT A TIME WHEN AMERICA'S EMINENCE WAS UNQUESTIONED. You ARE MATURING IN AN ERA WHEN ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL LEADERS INCREASINGLY ARE DISTRIBUTED AMONG A GROWING NUMBER OF NATIONS J AND AT A TIME WHEN AMERICA'S LEADERSHIP IS INCREASINGLY QUESTIONED. You GREW UP IN AN AGE OF FREER LIFESTYLES. You ARE MATURING IN AN ERA MARKED BY CONFUSION AND UNCERTAINTY REGARDING TRADITIONAL VALUES AND THE DEGREE OF GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT IN OUR DAILY LIVES. 6 �IN THE WORDS OF FRENCH PH ILOSOPHER PAUL VALER ~ HTHE TROUBLE W ITH OUR T IMES ISTHAT THE FUTURE ISNOT WHAT IT USED TO BE .H How AND INDEED WHETHER YOU -TODAY 'S YOUNG ADULTS CAN RESPOND TO TOMORROW 'S UNCERTA INT IES AND CHALLENGES IS NOT CLEAR , FOR TO BE LUNT~ ISEE YOU AS PART OF A GENERAT ION OF WH ICH TOO L ITTLE HAS BEEN EXPECTED , WE HAVE BEEN WRONG TO TELL YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU AS ED~ OU~ GET~ AND TOO L ITTLE CONSTANTL ~ THAT AND YET HAVE NOT OFFERED YOU THE OPPORTUN ITY TO G IVE IN RETURN .

Mawby, Chairman of the Board W. K. Kellogg Foundation I am delighted to be here as the Binder Park Zoo takes another major step in its development for our community. The Zoo has had a remarkable record of success in the past four years -- often ~n the face of adverse economic, general and weather conditions. operati~g, The Zoo is an impressive example of community self-initiative and achievement; whereby a group of citizens recognized a community need and then organized to plan, fund, and carry out zoo activities, and without reliance on tax or governmental money. Today volunteers from throughout the area serve as members of the Zoo's Board of Directors; are helping to physically build and maintain the Zoo; a n d are serving as docents -- or volunte~~ �a c2 - t e a c h e r s-t om ak e p o s s i b l ea g r e a t l ye x p a n d e d Zoo e d u c a t i o n a l o u t r e a c hp r o g r am .

Many of the Foundation's grantmaking efforts over the years have reflected that commitment and belief regarding the importance of education in our society. That has been the Foundation's goal in providing financial support for the Zoo. That has also been the Foundation's goal ln regard to a grant which I am pleased to announce this evening namely, a new $60,000 grant by the Kellogg Foundation to help the Binder Park Zoo construct a separate animal care facility immediately to the west of this education center. These Foundation funds will augment the already considerable financial support pledged by the General Foods Corporation for completion of the animal care center. The Center will feature special space and equipment needed to develop and serve major exotic animal exhibits -- which are key to the next phase of the Zoo's development. Yet, ln a more direct way, the Wildlife Education Center we dedicate this evening has been described as the true "heart" of all Zoo operations because it houses cl assrooms and meeting �ac -4- space, offices, kitchen, and animal care area. I take that to mean the heart of the Zoo in an educational sense. For the Center makes possible a further broadening of Zoo educational programs for area youth and citizens. The challenge for the Binder Park Zoo will be to use this Wildlife Education Center to enhance both outreach and in-zoo programs. More than 19,200 people were served by Zoo outreach activities last year, as well as by the Zoomobile field days and "Living Textbook" programs at schools throughout the community. More than 15,000 additional youngsters participated in the educational programs and festivals offered right here at the Zoo. I believe the key to Binder Park Zoo's promising future will be its continued emphasis on quality educational programs, and equally important, voluntary support and citizen involvement within its 25-mile, 800,000 population service area . �ac -5- The Kellogg Foundation has been pleased to be a partner in helping to launch the Binder Park Zoo. We are proud of the Zoo's growing reputation nationally for outstanding educational programs. We are equally proud, and confident, that the Zoo will build upon that record of service and achievement in the years ahead. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
