NDNU Magazine, Vol. 3, No. 1

Fall semester is nearlyover and it is hard tobelieve that the holidayseason is upon us. As theNew Year approaches, I am aware that there ismuch for which we can be thankful. Those of uson campus as well asmany residents in theBelmont/San Mateo com-munity are grateful for

“The Gift,” the annual production of The Music ofCharles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol that brings joy to audi-ences and provides toys and food for our less fortunateneighbors. Our thanks to Mike Elkins, chair of theTheatre Department, for his 17 successful years ofstaging this production and collecting items for localorganizations to distribute. This is the season whenwe need to think of others when we count our ownblessings.

We are also thankful for the construction of our206-bed residence hall, which is progressing nicely. I know that our students will be thankful when it isready for occupancy next fall, as our residence hallsare filled to capacity, due in part to a freshman classthat is nearly double that of last year.

We just completed the second Campus ClimateSurvey, which was conducted by the Office of Missionand Diversity. The survey is used to assess how wellour programs, activities, and personnel support racialand ethnic diversity. These surveys are part of a longi-tudinal study, allowing us to benchmark our progressfor five years and to develop a comprehensive plan fordiversity. We believe the information gathered fromthese surveys will help us to further our institutionalvalues of social justice and global peace.

I am pleased to announce that we have a priestwho lives on campus and says our Sunday evening

mass and assists with other masses. Fr. Eric Freed is a faculty member at St. Francis High School inMountain View. It was a challenge to find someonewho would serve as a “regular” priest for us, and mythanks go to alumna Mary Jo Avila Carroll ’62 whoreferred him to us; she also teaches at St. Francis HighSchool.

Our men’s and women’s soccer teams and women’svolleyball team experienced great success during the fall season. School spirit and support for theArgonauts is at an all-time high. In mid-December our men's basketball team will be playing in theHawaiian Style Classic in Honolulu. I encourage youto visit our website at www.ndnu.edu for updates and more information about NDNU events.

In this issue we are pleased to profile several“NDNU families.” Our thanks to the Adriano family,the Callagy family, and the Sangervasi family for shar-ing their children with us. We also are pleased tohighlight one of our generous donors, Eugene Cuneo,who established an endowed scholarship in memoryof his daughter and an annual scholarship to honor his late wife. He chose to assist future teachers by creating these scholarships, and our student recipi-ents are grateful for his generosity.

NDNU is a special place due to the efforts of manypeople: our dedicated faculty, our caring staff, our talented students, and our faithful alumni. Thank youfor being part of our community.

Sincerely,

John B. Oblak, Ph.D.President, Notre Dame de Namur University

Cuneo Scholarships Support Teaching

Golf Invitational

NE OF NDNU’S MOST LOYAL

supporters is Eugene Cuneo, whocelebrated his 92nd birthday on

October 10. He is one of a select group ofdonors whose lifetime giving exceeds$100,000, and all of his gifts to NDNUhave gone toward scholarships.

An unassuming man with a warmsmile and a generous spirit, he chose tohonor the memory of his wife, Irma, andhis daughter, Diane Cuneo Castagnola ’64,by establishing an endowed scholarship in 1998 for students interested in pursuinga career in teaching. In addition to theendowed scholarship, he supports TheIrma Cuneo Scholarship, an annual schol-arship, which also assists future teachers.

Gene Cuneo has lived on the familyranch in Healdsburg, overlooking beauti-ful vineyards along Dry Creek Valley, sincehis family moved there in 1917. He staysinvolved in the wine industry and currentdevelopments, even though he is no longerinvolved in the day-to-day decisions of hisranch.

He has watched the wine industrydevelop and mature since the end of pro-

hibition. He and his wife Irma began withfruit crops and then switched to growinggrapes exclusively in 1981. They were bothhard workers and enjoyed the satisfactionof building a business that would sustaintheir family. When Irma Cuneo died in

January of 1996, she and Eugene were justfive months short of celebrating their 60thwedding anniversary.

Diane Cuneo Castagnola, an Englishmajor at (then) College of Notre Dame,died an untimely death at age 35 as aresult of cancer. Gene commented in arecent conversation, “Diane loved her timeat the College and felt very protective ofNotre Dame.” As a class officer in highschool, she was looking for a collegewhere she could continue to serve as aclass leader, obtain an excellent education,and get to know everyone on campus.

Thanks to family friend Dr. Mary EllenBoyling, Diane enrolled at CND where she enjoyed her education curriculum andpursued her dream of becoming a teacher.The legacy of an endowed scholarshipensures that future teachers will continueto be supported at NDNU, as a result of the generosity of Gene Cuneo. May the recipients of the Cuneo MemorialEndowed Scholarship and the Irma CuneoScholarship raise their glasses in a toast toEugene Cuneo.

OW THAT THE OFFICE OF STUDENT

Affairs has been re-christened theOffice for Campus Life, what is its

mission? Much like its predecessor, themission of this new entity is to promoteand create a sense of community guidedby the ideals of global peace, social justice,and community service. As the vice presi-dent of OCL, Dr. Raymond Jones feelsthat a vibrant campus life is the connec-tion between students, faculty, and staffthat sustains the campus community andintellectual life of the University.

“The Office for Campus Life,” notes Dr. Jones, “fosters a dynamic, diverse,multicultural, just, and caring campuscommunity by coordinating the follow-ing student-centric functions: StudentActivities, Campus Ministry, DiningServices, Counseling, Health Services,Housing & Residence Life, InternationalStudents, Bookstore, and Public Safety.Each department is committed to providing the highest quality service possible, by coordinating services andprograms to meet the needs of allUniversity constituencies.

“As such,” continues Dr. Jones, “OCLforms the core of community for theUniversity. The most important commu-

nity members are the students. Beginningwith orientation of first-year and transferstudents and four years later concludingwith commencement, OCL impacts thelives of everyone and every aspect of theUniversity.”

The OCL strategic plan advances leadership development, especiallythrough its Center for Student Leader-ship; encourages individual responsibility,self discipline, and good citizenship; stimulates the desire to render commu-nity service; and promotes a brighterfuture for communities and the nation as a whole. To accomplish this, says Dr. Jones, “Students need to participate in activities that prepare them for thecomplexity of living in today’s world.

“The Office for Campus Life plans to expose students to a broad range ofeducational, social, and recreational pro-grams, facilities, and fundamental servicesthat foster an optimum living and learn-ing environment on campus, facilitate theoverall development of each student, andenhance the sense of community at theUniversity.” Dr. Jones further explainsthat “the OCL charter must provide learn-ing activities, guidance, and advisementfor members of clubs and organizations,

the StudentGovernment,and the generalstudent bodythat will com-plement andsupport the academic mis-sion of the insti-tution andenhance thequality of cam-pus life.”

A key OCLfocus is to create a campus environ-ment that invites diversity and encouragesappreciation of individual differences.From Dr. Jones’ perspective, “This isaccomplished by offering culturally sensi-tive, non-sexist experiential learning out-comes designed to empower students tobe more effective in all areas of their life.These outcomes then enable them to havethe requisite values and competenciesneeded to pursue leadership roles withintheir communities in the 21st Century.”

Dr. Raymond Jones helpsfoster a campus environ-ment that invites diversity.

ESIDENT STUDENTS JUST NEED TO TURN

on their television to find out aboutschool happenings and view docu-

mentary features involving campus life. Frank Ryerson, a lecturer in communi-

cation at NDNU, has started teaching thenew television production lab course,which is similar to a class he teaches aspart of the visual and performing arts curriculum at Notre Dame High School.

“NDNU’s communication program has had a TV production course since its inception, and the vision was always to include a lab as part of the course,”Ryerson said.

He explains that students are currentlytraining in digital movie-editing softwareand broadcast technology that will allowthem to pre-record broadcasts in theNotre Dame High School studio for play-back in the residence halls. At the end ofthis fall semester, Ryerson hopes to have afledgling TV studio at NDNU in Kane B.

“We wish to be of service to anyone in the NDNU community who would liketo reach our residence hall audience,”Ryerson said. “We welcome story ideasand input.”

HE CITY OF BELMONT RECENTLY

launched an unprecedented, com-munity-wide effort to shape the

long-term vision of Belmont. Members ofthe NDNU community have been activelyinvolved in this process since May, partici-pating with civic and community leaderson all seven different visioning committees. The committees have explored what Belmont is today, what trends are likely to influenceits future, what values are shared, and whatthey want the community to look like in 20or even 50 years.

A series of common themes emerged as the committees shared their individualvisions. These themes included: distinctivecommunity character, natural beauty, thriving culture, thriving economy, andeasy mobility. The University, the arts, and education were considered primaryassets for the city.

On September 6, the entire Belmontcommunity was invited to “VisionSaturday” which was held in the GleasonGymnasium on the NDNU campus.

Community members came to learn moreabout the work of the committees and to share their own individual visions forthe future. The input received from thecommunity on Vision Saturday was incor-porated into a draft vision statement and the community was encouraged to provide feedback by October 10. A finalvision statement was then developed andpresented to the Belmont City Council forapproval on October 14.

The statement listed Belmont's distinc-tive community character, natural beauty,thriving economy and culture, and its easymobility as values Belmont residents holdabout themselves and their community.

The ultimate goal of the visioning effortis to provide the Belmont community witha sense of direction and a framework forevaluating future policy decisions. Thevision that emerged will provide a criticalfoundation for the city’s EconomicDevelopment Strategy and the GeneralPlan Update.

NDNU Helps Shape Belmont’s Vision for the Future

T

ITH THE START OF THE FALL

semester, students were greetedwith a hub of activity on campus

as construction on the new residence hallshifted into high gear. As many as 13 trucksper hour were rolling in and out of campuson September 17 as the foundation footings for the new residence hall were poured.The next major activity was the pouring ofthe slab-on-grade the week of October 13.Since then, work on the hall has progressedsmoothly and is currently two weeks aheadof schedule.

The most intrusive work on the con-struction horizon will be the replacementand upgrading of the sanitary sewer serv-ing the upper campus. The upgrade will be designed to accommodate the new residence hall and future buildingsapproved in the Master Plan. This work has been tentatively scheduled to occurduring the holiday break, beginning aroundDecember 15 and concluding by January 4.

feedback meeting at Ralston Hall Mansion.

DNU holds a very special place forthe Sangervasi family. Five family

members were the first in their genera-tion to attend college and they chose todo so at NDNU. Eleven siblings in all, theeldest half pursued other avenues such as joining the Navy or work force, but the younger half were all drawn to the family-like atmosphere NDNU has to offer.

“Everyone knows everyone at NDNUand that’s so important,” says Therese(Sangervasi) Kehl. “You really feel a sense of community as you walk around campus.” The Sangervasi tradition beganwith brotherMichael who graduated in ’97with a degree inpolitical scienceand French. Hethen went on toSFSU to earn hismaster’s in inter-national relations.Michael lives in the North Bay and teaches history and Spanish at Oaks Academy in Petaluma,but still makes time to teach a summerclass or two at NDNU.

Therese, the Sangervasi’s eighth child,was not only student body president, butwent on to work at NDNU in a variety ofcapacities including events manager. Itwas difficult for her to leave, but littleAngela, now 18 months, needed her momat home.

Christina and Joe attended NDNU atthe same time with Christina graduatingwith a degree in music and European

languages in 2002, and Joe graduatingthis coming spring with a degree in soft-ware engineering and management. Joealso works on campus in the Office ofInformation and Technology.

A distinguished president’s scholar is also part of the family as sister Suzanneis one of nine incoming freshmen thisyear to earn a full scholarship to theUniversity. And last but not least, JulieRossi, Therese’s niece, continues the fam-ily tradition by studying graphic design as a junior. Julie also works in theWiegand Art Gallery.

“The sense of community –that’s why we allwanted to receiveour educationhere, work here,stay here,” saysTherese. “Ourfamily sometimesjokes ’NotreDame – we cannever leave,’somehow wealways return

because we enjoy our very special connection to the University.”

“Another thing about NDNU,” notesTherese, “You can create your ownmajors, and double up if you want to as well. My majors were English andcommunication. I’ve been on the alumniboard for the past four years and I wasable to work at Notre Dame because people believed in my abilities, encour-aged them, and opened doors for me.That’s what NDNU is all about.”

Taking Extended Familyto the Next Level

ll four Callagy siblings, Lynnel,Mark, Michael, and Patrice, proudly

proclaim their alma mater, holding a special place in their hearts for NDNU.“We attended graduation six years in a row, with each of us receiving eitherour undergraduate or graduate degrees or both,” explains Lynnel, who graduatedin ‘82 with an undergraduate degree inbusiness administration and in ‘87 withan MBA. She owns her ownaccounting and tax practice.

“We allfound NotreDame to be a very quaint,intimate uni-versity thatallowed one-on-one education and provided studentswith terrific professors,” Lynnel continues.“My brothers would throw parties andwe all met a lot of nice people withwhom we still remain close.”

Patrice, who doesn’t live too far awayin Belmont, graduated in ‘83 with a BS inbiology and in ‘91 with an MPA. She isthe assistant nurse manager at StanfordHospital’s Emergency Department.

Michael, who is now a captain for the San Mateo Police Department and an attorney, met his wife, Lisa Foster,at NDNU. The two were sophomores,

The sense of commitment and community that one fosters in families are valuesNDNU strives to impart to its students, faculty, and staff. The warm familiarfeeling one finds on campus is similar to that of a close-knit family. After sittingdown with a few of NDNU’s well-known families, it appears that they view theUniversity as part of their own extended family.

Michael working on his bachelor’s in history and Lisa working on her degree in business administration. They grad-uated together in ‘84. Lisa went on toreceive her MBA degree from NDNU in‘88 and Michael obtained an MPA degreefrom NDNU in 2000.

“It’s a real family affair,” says Lisa of her family’s special ties to NDNU. Thecouple currently lives in Foster City and

they spend much of their time taking care of their four children, all under theage of six.

Mark graduated in ‘85 with a BS inbusiness. He lives in Foster City with hiswife and three children. He is currently an executive vice president of AdvancedRestaurant Finance, a chain that lendsfinancial help to restaurants.

“Notre Dame’s structure, diversity,and personable atmosphere make it areally good school,” concludes Lynnel.

ix out of seven Adriano siblingsattended NDNU, and in part, it’s

thanks to their sister Rosette who grad-uated in ’94 with a behavioral sciencedegree.

“I remember coming home from college telling my family how great Notre Dame was, and how excited I was to be involved in many extracurricu-lar activities. Notre Dame was an idealplace not just for an education, but awhole new world to experience life, andgrow as a person,” says the oldest of the Adriano clan. “I think my collegeexperience served as an inspiration to my siblings, that they all wanted to go to college as well. They also then choseNDNU because there, you feel like you’rea part of a family and not just anothernumber.”

Following in his sister’s footsteps,Romulo, Jr. studied communication atNDNU, transferring to Loyola Marymountand graduating with a degree in commu-

nication in ’96. Rosanna graduated fromNDNU in 2000 with a degree in liberalstudies while Rommel graduated with acommunication degree in 2002. Rosarioand Regina are current students majoringin liberal studies. If you’re wonderingabout the missing Adriano, sister Rosalyn,she attended a Jesuit university inColorado.

“We all had one brother or sistergoing to school at the same time, whichmade it nice,” notes Rosette, who marriedRichard Simonton, NDNU class of ’94.“There are so many positive influences at Notre Dame. You really get to knowyour professors and the diverse back-0grounds of students and faculty makes it so enjoyable.”

As for future recruits, Rosette isalready looking to her children Courtney,3, and William, 2. “My kids know howimportant college is,” says Rosette. “I’msure they’ll carry on the tradition.”

N SEPTEMBER, ALUMNI DIRECTORS FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF

San Francisco, St. Mary’s College, Holy Names College, andNDNU met with members of the Sweethearts Ball committee.

They are planning a formal dinner dance for those alumni/ae whograduated from the schools between 1940 and 1966 when the four campuses were still all male or all female. The excitement of the group made the members realize this is a winning event.Memories of college mixers, proms, and football games surfacedas the committee discussed plans and possibilities.

The ball will be held on February 13, 2004, in Ralston HallMansion. Judging from the enthusiasm of the alumni present,

this could turn out to be an annual event, held at each of the institutions in rotation. If the ball produces as many laughs andmemories as surfaced during a committee meeting with just ahandful of alums, it is certain that the Sweethearts Ball will bea grand success.

Aarrgh!onauts Presidential Scholars

Despite plenty of spirit, balloons, and Greek warrior helmets, NDNU’s“Save the Music” regatta crew finished dead last in their heat.Nevertheless (from top to bottom), Ruben Mora-Roman, Jennifer Perry,Yasmine Kury, and J.C. Montenegro enjoyed lending their support to thisSeptember fundraiser for the Belmont-Redwood Shores School District.

Presidential Scholars from left to right back row: Phuoc Hoa Dao, Dan Wallace, ElinKjolseth, Cole Sloan, Cody Hart, and Cristine Quiason. Front row: Stacy De Natale,Suzanne Sangervasi, and Nadia Petrova. Presidential scholars are freshman andtransfer students who, based on academic merit, receive a full scholarship for tuition,room and board. The scholarship includes an additional award of $2000 in Work Studythat the scholars earn while serving as interns to the president or one of the vicepresidents or deans. Students are also selected based on leadership experience, depthof commitment to activities, and community service.

Kathleen Rose

athleen Rose is a graduating senior who has taken fulladvantage of NDNU’s commitment to enable students“to build character, competence, and confidence forlife and work.”

Kathleen is from San Diego, California, and was recruited in 2000 to be a member of the first NDNU women’s soccerteam. This year marks her fourth and final season for the lady Argonauts. Having made the Dean’s List each semester,Kathleen was named to the 2002-2003 NAIA All AmericanAcademic Team, along with six of her teammates.

Off the playing field, Kathleen will graduate with honors,with a double major in Communication and BusinessManagement. While attending NDNU, Kathleen has assumed

many leadership positionsboth on and off campus.For the past two years, she has chaired the Pro-gramming Board, a five-member student teamcharged with providing edu-cational and social activitiesfor students, and served onthe Associated StudentsSenate.

This award recognizes the values that Kathleen has developed while at NDNU and thosethat she has shared with her team, co-workers, peers, and the faculty and staff. “My time at Notre Dame can be char-acterized by change, both within the University and myself. I have enjoyed each experience tremendously,” she says. Thereis no doubt that Kathleen’s character, confidence, and compe-tence have prepared her for her life and work beyond NotreDame de Namur University.

ike so many other high-tech workers in 2001, Leon Ivery suddenly found himself laid offfrom a dot-com. And, again, just

like so many others, Leon thought thatgiven the slumping economy, thismight be a great time to go back toschool. Consequently, these daysyou’ll find Leon working on his BS in economics and finance in NDNU’sEvening Intensive Program.

Even though he looks pretty comfortable on a bench outsideTabard Inn, Leon’s never been muchfor sitting around. After high schoolin Troy, Michigan, he went to workat a Ford plant in Sterling Heights. A year later he was drafted into theArmy and trained as a radar techni-cian. Having survived the brutal TetOffensive of 1968 and spendingmore time than he cared to 12 milesfrom the Demilitarized Zone, SergeantIvery re-entered civilian life in 1969.

Back home in Troy and unable to find a position in ground approach radar,Leon started taking electrical engineeringcourses at Macomb County CommunityCollege. Finishing his AA degree at

MCCC, he enrolled at University ofMichigan/Flint and simultaneouslyworked at Ford. Following a few morecourses, Leon did some programmingfor a publishing company, General

Motors, and Amdahl. After leavingAmdahl in 1993, he became an indepen-dent contractor until his all-too-briefstint at that dot-com.

Never content to be reactive, Leonwent into proactive mode and discov-ered a veterans’ education program

called Chapter 31. It’s a program tailor-made for vets who have a special need.Since Leon was 56, and was having difficulty finding work, he was judged to have a special need.

A Chapter 31 counselor identi-fied three universities where Leoncould find a suitable program to finish his degree: USF, Golden Gate,and NDNU. The counselor hadparticularly good things to sayabout NDNU and further pointedout that it would be much moregeographically attractive to Leonwhose home is in Mountain View.He began matriculating at NDNU inMarch of this year and expects tohave his degree in December 2005.

What does he think of NDNUnow? “What I like best aboutNDNU is its almost undefinable,special charm. It’s a scenic, peaceful

place with history in every brick andboard, but the courses are totally up todate. I particularly enjoy the teachers –very encouraging and helpful. Nobodyputs on airs. It’s a terrifically supportiveenvironment.”

iskiyou County. They call it “God’s Country.”Sacred sites, including Mt. Shasta, the Marble

Mountains, dense forests, and hidden waterfalls, framethe setting for Siskiyou County’s Behavioral Health

Services. Here, Susan Heartlight, NDNU alumna, ’90 and ’92, andlicensed marriage family therapist, works with the Adult System of Care, treating high-risk and chronically mentally-ill clients.

Growing up in poverty, the oldest daughter of six children andthen herself becoming a single mother on welfare, Susan’s onlythought was to survive. A social worker at her children’s schoolencouraged her to attend college. It took 13 years to completeher education and become licensed, but she never gave up.

Susan attended College of San Mateo, was elected presidentof the Honor Society, and becameinvolved in programs to stop vio-lence against women. Following hergraduation, Susan knew she had tocontinue with her education toflourish and expand her creativityand spirituality.

She dreamed of a college whereshe could be a person and not anumber. After speaking with anNDNU representative, Susan realizedthat the dream was within her grasp

as she learned that she was eligible for a Regent’s Scholarship to help pay for her bachelor’s degree in psychology.

Involved with the Student Senate and once again elected president of the Honor Society, Susan continued working towardsher master’s in psychology, writing her thesis on rape trauma, andbringing Bay Area Model Mugging (BAMM) onto campus todemonstrate self defense for women.

“We often hear of the atrocities of war and how women are held captive in rape camps, but here in the United States,thousands of women are raped and beaten every day and we are supposedly not at war,” said Susan. ”This traumatic eventdestroys the psychological well-being of an individual and alsoaffects the people involved in their lives, generally their children.

“Attending NDNU was a part of my process in creating afuture without fear,” she added. “Notre Dame helped me to seemy value and to discover the impact of a quality education as partof my own healing and growth, and in turn how this can affectthe community I live in and the people with whom I come intocontact.”

Indeed, working as a clinician, Susan now has the opportunityto help others through the healing process. “I am fortunate toown my own home in this beautiful space in Siskiyou County, to counsel, and to teach that anyone can thrive, given the opportunity.”

S THE ASSISTED LIVING COORDINATOR

at Sunrise Assisted Living inBelmont, Nancy (McSween)Cordova spreads good cheer

and shares fond memories of NDNU withthe seniors in her care.

“The seniors love to hear that I grad-uated from Notre Dame,” said the NDNUalumna, who graduated with a master’sdegree in gerontology in May 2003.“Some of the seniors actually went toNDNU as well, so we have a lot to talkabout.”

Nancy oversees nearly all aspects ofsenior care including medical attention,activities, and personal care. She creditsNDNU for preparing her well for theworld of gerontology.

“The private school setting at NDNU is so much more personalized than thelarger state schools,” explained Nancy,who also earned a BA in human develop-

ment from Hayward State University anda BA in biology from San Francisco StateUniversity.

“My advisor at NDNU showed up at work with my registration packet,”explained Nancy, who worked at theUniversity as the president’s administra-tive coordinator while attending NDNU.“That’s really something. She caredenough to not let me slip through thecracks. All of the administration and pro-fessors are truly accessible which is notsomething you find at other universities.”

Nancy still keeps in touch with manyalumni and faculty. “Everyone was sowonderful and encouraging,” she said.“These are people who were at my wed-ding and with whom I still keep in veryclose contact.” Nancy married RobertoCordova at NDNU’s CunninghamMemorial Chapel in June 2002. The two currently reside in Belmont.

Nancy encourages NDNU graduates tovolunteer with seniors in their communi-ties. “Whether it’s reading or helpingwith special events, it means a lot to theseniors that people care. I’d love to havesome NDNU graduates volunteer atSunrise; we could catch up and theseniors would benefit too.”
