Odessa Kalathas recognized by national organization for her commitment to solving public problems
Chambersburg, Pa. – March 3, 2021 – Wilson College is proud to announce that one of our students, Odessa Kalathas, has been named a Newman Civic Fellow.
The Newman Civic Fellowship is a year-long program for students from Campus Compact member institutions. The students selected for the fellowship are leaders on their campuses who demonstrate a commitment to finding solutions for challenges facing communities locally, nationally, and internationally.
Campus Compact, a Boston-based non-profit organization working to advance the public purposes of higher education, has announced the 290 students who will make up the organization's 2021-2022 cohort of Newman Civic Fellows. Kalathas will join 212 students from 39 states, Washington, D.C., and Mexico to form the 2021 cohort.
Kalathas, a second-year student at Wilson College, is a student leader, active in the leadership of the student government association and the InterVarsity Christian organization. Over the past two years, her focus both inside and outside of the classroom has been on social justice through constructive dialogue. She served as a peer teacher in a first-year seminar centered on social justice issues and as a counselor at a Christian camp, Camp Joy El. She embodies the Wilson Honor Principle by "demonstrating personal integrity, respecting the dignity of all persons, respecting diversity in people, ideas, and opinions, and demonstrating concern for others, their feelings and their needs for conditions which support their work and development." She continually strives to listen to, and understand, others and by doing so, lead them in solving issues that challenge our world and ourselves.
"Kalathas is the first generation of her family to attend college," said President of Wilson College Wesley R. Fugate, Ph.D. "She believes herself a more open-minded individual because her Wilson experiences have stretched her perspective. She is a critical thinker who brings about the peaceful communication so needed on our college campuses and in our world to address our shared challenges."
The fellowship is named for the late Frank Newman, one of Campus Compact's founders, who was a tireless advocate for civic engagement in higher education. In the spirit of Dr. Newman's leadership, Campus Compact member presidents and chancellors nominate student leaders from their campuses to be named Newman Civic Fellows.
Through the fellowship, Campus Compact provides Fellows with a variety of learning and networking opportunities that emphasize personal, professional, and civic growth. Each year, fellows participate in numerous virtual training and networking opportunities to help provide them with the skills and connections they need to create large-scale positive change. The cornerstone of the fellowship is the Annual Convening of Fellows, which offers intensive skill-building and networking over the course of two days. The fellowship also provides fellows with pathways to apply for exclusive scholarship and post-graduate opportunities.
"We are proud to recognize these extraordinary student leaders and thrilled to engage with them," said Campus Compact President Andrew Seligsohn. "The experience of the last year has driven home to all of us that we need open-minded, innovative, public-spirited thinkers and doers. That is what Campus Compact is about, and the stories of our Newman Civic Fellows demonstrate it's who they are."

Wilson College has named Angela Zimmann, Ph.D., CFRE of Gettysburg, Pa., as the new vice president for institutional advancement. With more than 20 years of experience in fundraising, leadership, and teaching in higher education, Zimmann will join the college March 15. She replaces Camilla Rawleigh, who retired from the institution in November 2020.
Zimmann currently serves as the vice president for institutional advancement at United Lutheran Seminary (formerly The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Gettysburg and The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia). In this capacity, she leads the overall fundraising strategies for the institution, including the annual fund, major gifts, planned gifts, and various philanthropic campaigns. She also oversees all aspects of alumni relations and donor relations and is the president of the seminary’s endowment foundation. Prior to her current role, Zimmann served as interim president of the institution from Dec. 2019 to Aug. 2020 and advancement executive from 2014 to 2016.
With the assistance of Academic Search, a firm specializing in the recruitment of higher education leadership roles, Wilson conducted a national search for this important position. “It is a time of transformative change at the college. We have launched a new strategic action and planning process that will enable us to better respond to the needs and desires of today’s students and beyond,” Wilson College President Wesley R. Fugate, Ph.D., said. “We needed an advancement professional with the ability to tell the story of Wilson College and share the student experience. These skills are critical to securing needed resources and engaging all constituents in the work of the college. Angela’s leadership skills, ability to harness the power of data to influence key decisions, as well as her ability to inspire others with the Wilson story, make her a great addition to the team.”
Lynne DiStasio, president of the Alumnae Association of Wilson College, agrees. “During the interview process, it became clear Angela has a real passion for the mission of the college. Her desire to build meaningful connections with our alumni will go a long way in bringing forward much-needed resources for the college’s future programs.”
Reporting to the president of the college, the vice president for institutional advancement is responsible for enhancing Wilson’s resources and relationships to respond to changing student and institutional needs and to create a vision for a sustainable future. The position works closely with the president, the executive team, academic deans and directors, faculty, staff, students, and the Board of Trustees to strengthen a collaborative college-wide effort, engaging alumni, corporations, foundations, and the community to support the college.
“I am excited to join the team at Wilson College and am very much looking forward to helping the college build upon its past successes,” Zimmann said. “Wilson is poised to thrive and flourish. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be a part of its bright future.” Zimmann holds a Bachelor of Science in industrial engineering from University of Toledo, a Master of Divinity from United Lutheran Seminary, and a Doctor of Philosophy in English, rhetoric, and writing from Bowling Green State University.

The exhibition celebrates institutional collaboration, student scholarship, and artistic voice.
The Bogigian Gallery is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Admission is free.

Chambersburg, Pa. — The Foundry, at 100 South Main Street in downtown Chambersburg, will host an exhibition of artwork by Wilson College studio art students. The exhibition will open on Feb. 19 and continue through March 14, 2021. The event is free and open to the public.
The exhibition will be the fifth exhibit in a partnership between The Foundry and Wilson College. Wilson’s history as a community partner dates to the founding of the institution. Wilson’s commitment to rich and meaningful partnerships continues as the community grows and evolves.
The Foundry is a grass-roots, artist-led organization that shares similar visions and missions to those of Wilson College and its Division of Arts and Letters. These include promoting critical and creative thinking through artistic exploration and expression and providing venues for the exhibition of creative works of art that educate, inspire, and give opportunities for cultural expression by local and regional artists. The mission of Wilson’s exhibitions program, in particular, is to educate, encourage, and stimulate appreciation for and expand knowledge of visual literacy within the college environment. The programs sponsored by and works of art exhibited in Wilson galleries represent a broad spectrum of human achievement and reflection. They aspire to promote critical and creative thinking, cultural enrichment, inspiration for artists as well as non-artists, and appreciation of art and culture for (and within) the Wilson community and our collective histories.
The partnership provides opportunities for exhibition exchanges and possible studio/workshop opportunities. Foundry artists will have the opportunity to exhibit their artwork at Wilson College in the fall of 2021.

The College has added three in-demand majors to our undergraduate selections and an online master's degree aimed at professionals seeking to advance in their careers. Beginning fall 2021, the new majors offered are Healthcare and Medical Humanities, Liberal Studies, and Supply Chain Management. The online master's degree is in Applied Leadership.
Wilson continually updates and changes the courses offered to best meet our students' needs and provide them with options that give them an edge in today's jobs market and more pathways to fulfilling careers and professions.
Our healthcare and medical humanities major combines practical, science-based knowledge with ethical values and psychological insights to give students a more complete, holistic, and contemporary understanding of best practices in healthcare. It prepares graduates for an array of careers in this field.
"Patients are not just their symptoms or a momentary embodiment of their illness. They are whole human beings with entire life experiences," says Melanie Gregg, Ph.D., associate professor of humanities. "Having the ability to listen with empathy and interpret a patient's story and pull meaning from it is how a caregiver can lead a patient out of suffering and onto a path of healing."
The liberal studies major is a versatile, broad-based degree customized to the individual student's interests and strengths. Graduates will learn the problem-solving, communication, leadership, and collaboration skills prized in a world that is everchanging and where adaptability and independent thought give you an advantage.
Supply chain management is one of the fastest-growing career paths and, according to Forbes, has created 1.4 million new jobs between 2018 and 2018. In an increasingly interconnected world, managing and optimizing the supply and delivery of raw materials, parts, or manufactured products from their producers to the customer is vital to many industries.
Our supply chain management major will appeal to students interested in a career in a variety of businesses or professionals already working in logistics or distribution and who want to advance their careers.
Applied Leadership is an online master's degree that prepares graduates for leadership roles in business, communications, healthcare, organizational management, and many other fields. The student customizes the courses across multiple disciplines to fit the area they already work in or one they would like to enter.
"This online program of study is ideal for working professionals with current or anticipated leadership responsibilities and has been designed to be flexible for professionals from diverse backgrounds and experiences," says Michael G. Cornelius, Ph.D., director of the master's in applied leadership.
These additions continue Wilson's tradition of providing academically rigorous and profession-oriented programs enhanced through a liberal arts education .
Wilson College keeps tuition and housing costs down. Whereas most colleges have increased tuition by more than 25% over the last decade, Wilson has decreased its tuition by 12% over the same period. The college is committed to providing a superior education at a very reasonable cost and giving access to a quality, private college education to students from all backgrounds.
In a letter to the Wilson community, college president Wesley R. Fugate, Ph.D., announced that tuition and housing costs would not increase for the 2021-2022 academic year and would remain at the current affordable levels for traditional undergraduate students.
Dear Wilson College Students and Families,
Wilson College, since its founding, has been a place of access. Today, one way we continue that tradition of providing access to higher education is by keeping the education we offer affordable. With this in mind, I am pleased to share with you that the Wilson College Board of Trustees has voted and approved tuition, room, board, and fees for the upcoming 2021-2022 academic year. Both full-time traditional student tuition and housing costs were held at the 2020-2021 academic year levels, with no increase. Board saw a modest 2% increase, year over year, and the comprehensive fee increased by $110.
2021-2022 Tuition and Fees
Traditional Student Full-time Tuition (annual)
$25,200.00
Housing
$5,500.00
Board
$6,340.00
Comprehensive Fee
$1,000.00
While media reports cite an over 25% increase in tuition at colleges and universities nationally over the past decade, Wilson College’s commitment to affordability has led us to actually decrease tuition by over 12% percent during that time. In those ten years, we have only increased tuition two times, and, in fact, in one of those years, we cut tuition by over 17%. Tuition today is nearly the same price it was 14 years ago, and tuition, room, and board remain cheaper than it was in the 2010-2011 academic year.
Our Board of Trustees, like our founders, believe our toppriority is to offer all students a quality education rooted in the liberal arts at an affordable price, regardless of their background or socioeconomic level. That is why, especially in light of the economic impacts so many are experiencing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it remains so important for us to keep our cost to students affordable.
Preparing for and adapting to the pandemic, including the many changes required for teaching and the care of our students, havenot been easy, nor inexpensive. We simply could not have anticipated the overall expense of the COVID-19 challenges when planning our operational budget. But like with other hurdles, the College has risen to the occasion. History certainly has shown that when things get tough, we Phoenix come together and overcome.
That is why we have strategically used state and federal funding to help our students with the greatest financial need and preserve as many faculty and staff jobs as possible, albeit with pay reductions. We have tightened our spending and eliminated non-essential expenditures. Our judicious stewardship of the budget in 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 has allowed us to impact overall costs to students and families as little as possible.
Even in the midst of these challenging times, our faculty have been hard at work finding ways to adapt to the needs of today’s students. They have launched three new undergraduate programs in finance, sport management, and criminal justice, and soon we will be announcing three additional new undergraduate majors and one new graduate program. We seek to provide the very best preparation for our students to not only enter into a successful career or graduate study but to make a difference in their communities. We are excited about the role these programs will play in helping our graduates do just that.
This past semester has been a time of adapting and learning, of empathizing and understanding. We have learned a great deal and plan to implement those best practices for even greater success in the spring. I know we can overcome the challenges the pandemic presents if we stay committed to the Wilson family, if we stay as #OneWilson. On behalf of the Wilson College Board of Trustees, our faculty, staff, and administrative leadership, thank you for your support of this great institution and patience as we look forward to a brighter day.
I look forward to seeing you on campus this spring.
Sincerely,
Wesley R. Fugate, Ph.D.
President
