SENIORS EXTEND MERCY LEGACY

THROUGH CLASS GIFT The Class of 2018 presented its Senior Gift to President Michael Victor just days ahead of its May 13 graduation in the form of an endowed scholarship named after Sister Lisa Mary McCartney, RSM. Doing the honors was Senior Gift Committee Chair Lynne Gillott. “At the beginning of the academic year, the committee set a goal of raising $12,000 for the scholarship, with a 60 percent participation rate from our class,” she said. “I am so unbelievably proud and honored to announce that we have surpassed our goals, with a 63 percent participation rate and a $15,777.37 check to present today.” Also at the presentation was Trustee and Mercyhurst alumnus Lev Kubiak, who made a $10,000 match to the scholarship fund. “His generous contribution has allowed us to nearly double the funds we have raised, making this gift an endowed scholarship that will beneft future Lakers for years and years to come,” Gillott said. The Sister Lisa Mary McCartney Scholarship will be awarded annually to a rising senior who is dedicated to service both within the Mercyhurst community and beyond, exemplifying the Mercy Mission. In receiving the gift, President Victor said, “Sister Lisa Mary McCartney is the heart and soul of Mercyhurst University, and I say that with all sincerity. I am thrilled that this year’s graduating class has chosen to honor her in this way.” Sister Lisa Mary was the last Sister of Mercy to teach full time at Mercyhurst, stepping down in 2004 after 24 years on the English faculty to join the Sisters of Mercy leadership team. She returned to campus in 2008 as vice president for mission integration, a cabinet- level post. She left that role this spring, becoming the last Sister of Mercy to work full time at Mercyhurst, though she remains on staf part time. In addition to Gillott, members of the Senior Gift Committee were Natalie Koons, Austin Shinhearl, Cole Lowe, Kimberly Kramer, Morgan Wangler, Cristal Maldonado, Cheyanne Crum, Amber Matha, Troy MacMullan, Natalie Merucci, Catherine Erway and Jenny Sabliov. 43
