麻豆视频免费在线观看 is pleased to announce it has received a $100,000 gift from former Trustee and Board Chair Kevin Byrnes. His gift will support two scholarships that he previously established in 2006 for Stevenson education and design students: the Maureen Knerr Byrnes Endowed Scholarship for Teacher Education in honor of his late wife, a former elementary teacher, and the Helen Fitzgerald Byrnes Endowed Scholarship for Graphic Design in honor of his mother鈥檚 great love and devotion to the arts.

鈥淢y relationship with Stevenson has been one of the most rewarding of my life,鈥� said Kevin Byrnes. 鈥淪tevenson鈥檚 emphasis on personalized support, affordability, and career preparation means generations of students can truly achieve their aspirations and look forward to success in their chosen professions. This is an educational mission and legacy that I am proud to support.鈥�

Kevin served on Villa Julie and Stevenson鈥檚 Board of Trustees from 2003 through 2015, and was elected Chairman of the Board in 2005, succeeding the late Ted Herget. He led the university through its expansion to Owings Mills, its name change, and the exponential growth of its academic, residential, and athletic facilities. Since leaving the Board, Kevin has served on Stevenson鈥檚 President鈥檚 Advisory Council.

鈥淜evin has been devoted to the mission of Stevenson and the success of our students for two decades,鈥� said Elliot Hirshman, President. 鈥淲e thank him for his ongoing support of our students鈥� academic and career aspirations as well as for his distinguished years of service on our Board that helped lay the foundation for the university we have become.鈥�

Kevin worked for more than 40 years in the retail and commercial banking industries. He began his career in 1969 at Bankers Trust Company in New York City, and later spent 25 years with Chase Manhattan Bank in various executive management positions in Maryland as well as New York State. From 2002 to 2009, Kevin was President/COO and Director of Provident Bank, headquartered in Baltimore, until it was acquired by M&T Bank in May 2009. Provident was the largest independent financial institution in the Maryland and Northern Virginia marketplaces at that time and was a leader in retail, commercial real estate, and small business lines. From 2010 until he retired in 2015, he served as Chairman of the Board of Bay Bank, a Lutherville, Maryland-based bank with assets of approximately $500 million and 12 branches located in the Baltimore metropolitan area.

It is with much sadness that we share the news of the passing of former university Board of Trustees Chair Charles E. 鈥淭ed鈥� Herget, Jr. He died peacefully on Thursday, March 2. Ted鈥檚 service to Villa Julie College and Stevenson spanned 30 years and encompassed some of the most transformational moments in the university鈥檚 history. He served on our Board of Trustees from 1975 to 2005, including a three-year term as Chair from 2002 to 2005. In 2005, the university conferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters in recognition of his distinguished service to the institution. In 2016, the entrance road into North Campus was named 鈥淭ed Herget Way鈥� to recognize his lasting impact on Stevenson.

Baltimore born and raised, Ted attended Loyola High School and earned his bachelor鈥檚 in business administration from Loyola College. He studied taxation, retirement planning, employee benefits, and investments at Johns Hopkins University and the University of Baltimore. He was a co-founder, principal, and senior consultant with Asset Strategy Consultants, an independent investment consulting firm headquartered in Baltimore.

When Ted joined the Board of Villa Julie in 1975, it was young and needed experienced executives to guide it. Ted not only brought that experience but he also brought his financial acumen, an impeccable reputation in Maryland鈥檚 business and philanthropic community, and an abiding spirit of loyalty and service to the university, its students, and its faculty and staff. He laid the groundwork for many things that strengthened the institution鈥檚 future鈥攚ise endowment investing, benefits and retirement plans for employees, and the networking that brought more supporters into the university鈥檚 fold. It was difficult to go anywhere in the Baltimore region where Ted was not known and loved, and that respect and wide network of friends and associates helped carry the mission and vision of Villa Julie and Stevenson even further.

Ted鈥檚 character was also defined by great courage. When facing Stage 3 cancer in 1998 and told he had less than a year to live, he decided to fight back. Through this determination, the strength and energy of his extensive network of friends, and the power of his faith, he was declared cancer free in 1999. It was this first-hand experience with healthcare givers that led him, in part, to establish the Herget Endowed Nursing Scholarship Fund for Stevenson students as a way of recognizing the vital need for nurses and healthcare providers in our greater community.

Ted鈥檚 spirit of service embraced many organizations throughout his career, including the American Red Cross, the Baltimore County Chamber of Commerce, the Greater Baltimore Committee, Maryvale Preparatory School, and the National Aquarium in Baltimore to name a few. In 2004, he was appointed Commissioner on the Maryland Economic Development Commission by former Governor Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.

On behalf of the entire Stevenson community, we share our deep respect for Ted with his wife Sheila, his children, and grandchildren, and express our abiding appreciation for his many contributions to Villa Julie and Stevenson.

麻豆视频免费在线观看 is pleased to announce it has received a $100,000 gift from the Helen Rose Dawson Charitable Trust. This gift reflects the spirit of service to and love for Villa Julie College and Stevenson that guided Rose Dawson, D. Ed., during her 34-year career as the institution鈥檚 Academic Dean and Vice President from 1965 to 1999. Rose passed away in July 2022.

Born in 1927, Rose was one of five girls born to Lawrence Dawson and Helen (Jenkins) Dawson and was raised at her family鈥檚 farm in Rockville, Maryland. After graduating high school in 1945, Rose joined the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, and went on to serve as an educator at schools throughout Maryland as well as Washington, D.C. and Staten Island, New York. Rose earned her master鈥檚 degree from Fordham University and her Doctorate in Education from Nova University.

In 1965, Rose was asked to serve as the Academic Dean of Villa Julie College, where she worked alongside longtime President Carolyn Manuszak to turn the two-year junior college into a thriving four-year institution. During her time, Rose helped guide the development of the curriculum, imbuing it with a strong career focus grounded in the liberal arts and sciences; instilled a shared commitment to teaching excellence; and promoted a culture of personalized support for students, something that she experienced in her youth that inspired her lifelong values.
