A Recognition of the Contributors of 2005Samuel Ginn College of Engineering

Auburn University

The 2006 Cupola RepoRT

Howard E. Palmes ’60Electrical EngineeringVice President, Network Operations, retiredBellSouth Corporation

“I am glad to contribute to the future of the College of Engineering at Auburn University. I have the utmost faith in Dean Benefield and his team. The strategic planning and development that has been done give me confidence that the college will continue to grow and improve in the coming years.”

William B. Reed ’50Mechanical EngineeringPresident, retiredSouthern Company Services, Inc.Owner and ChairmanSystem Controls, Inc.

“Auburn Engineering enjoys an excellent national reputa-tion, but new technology and worldwide competition require increased expenditures for skilled faculty, facilities and research contracts to maintain this position.

Unfortunately, the state of Alabama is not providing the necessary funding to support these expenditures. I am pleased to be able to make a small contribution to assist the work of Dean Benefield and his staff.

For me, ‘It did begin at Auburn.’”

The unrestricted annual support provided by Keystone Society gifts allows us to provide an unparalleled engineering educa-tion. Members invest $50,000 that can be given as a five-year pledge to the unrestricted fund, giving the college the flexibil-ity to respond to emerging opportunities.

Paul J. Spina Jr. ’63Electrical EngineeringOwner and CEOSpina Enterprises Inc.Managing MemberForesight Development, LLC

“Having earned my way through Auburn on the co-op plan, I can appreciate some students needing financial help to achieve their dream.

My experiences at Auburn literally changed my personality, self-confidence and, in fact, my life. My desire to give back in service and financial assistance is only one aspect of my deep love for Auburn University.”

William J. Ward ’55Mechanical EngineeringGeneral Chairman, Utilities Sales, retiredGeneral Electric Company

“As a native of Auburn, I have always been proud of my heritage and education, which have held me in good stead throughout my life and my 42-year business career. I am pleased to be able to give back to Auburn through the Key-stone Society and I encourage other graduates to use their company matching fund programs for this purpose.

Today’s business leaders are looking for engineers with skill sets in technology, globalization, leadership, teamwork, and with a passion for their work and a strong desire to succeed. Our engineers must have these learning opportuni-ties to assure that Auburn reaches its rightful place among the top engineering colleges in the country. The Keystone Society is an excellent way to support this vision.”

EndowmEntsEndowments are gifts that provide perpetual income for the advancement of Auburn Engineering. The Auburn University Foundation, in accordance with AUF policy, invests the principal of the endowed fund. The fund’s yearly earnings go toward the support of the program or initiative designated by the donor. For some endowments, a portion of each year’s earnings is reinvested into the principal, thereby growing the endowment and help-ing to secure Auburn’s endowment base. These gifts provide the college with the security of guaranteed support each year.

The following endowments were established in 2005 for the benefit of the students, faculty, and programs of the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering:

Endowed ScholarshipsAU Pulp and Paper Alumni Scholarship EndowmentCarroll T. Tolar Memorial EndowmentCavan S. Tubbs Endowment for ScholarshipsCharles Cockrell Endowment for ScholarshipsChristopher J.G. Couch EndowmentCivil Engineering Class of ’76 EndowmentDr. Brian J. Carnahan Memorial EndowmentEddie Little Memorial Freshman EndowmentJulian and Dorothy Davidson ScholarshipsRay Bass Endowment for ScholarshipsScarborough Electrical Engineering Endowment

Endowed ProfessorshipsJohn Wilford Brown Endowed Chair

Funds for ExcellenceStone Fund for ExcellenceJim Cooper Fund for Excellence

PlannEd GiftsPlanned gifts are named as such because even though they are given today, the college will not realize their benefit until sometime in the future. They come in many different forms and serve as a way for donors to manage their affairs and plan for the future while making a gift to the college. Planned gifts enable alumni and friends to continue building a bright future for the college long after they are gone.

The planned gifts established in 2005 are:
