Those of you who have visited our beautiful campus over the last year have witnessed a truly remarkable transformation. In Fall 2014, Young Harris College welcomed its largest-ever entering class comprised of 507 freshmen, and broke overall enrollment goals for the eighth consecutive year.

We continued adding depth to our academic programming, welcomed world-renowned lecturers and performers to campus, and watched another impressive class of graduates walk across the stage at Commencement.

There is no question that our success is due to the thousands of loyal and generous alumni, parents, and friends who help us create an extraordinary learning environment through their financial support of the College. This decision to give makes a difference in the lives of current and future members of the YHC community, as your generosity allows us to continue providing the highest quality liberal arts education.

On behalf of our Board of Trustees, administration, faculty, staff and students, thank you for keeping the YHC experience truly exceptional. It is because of your support that YHC has established itself among the leading colleges in the nation both today and for generations to come.

It is my pleasure to share with you highlights from the 2014-2015 year.

A SIGNATURE FACILITY On Oct. 1, 2014, Young Harris College officially opened the new $41 million, 121,000-square-foot

Rollins Campus Center, the largest building ever constructed at the College. Students immediately took note of how the center’s exceptional features enhance the academic and social components of their campus experience.

Later in the month, we witnessed another historic day when we held a ribbon-cutting and dedication ceremony for the Rollins Campus Center—the culmination of much planning, hard work and dedication by many members of the YHC community.

This center would never have come to fruition without the generosity of so many who believed in the College and what we are trying to achieve for our students. A $24 million gift from the Atlanta-based O. Wayne Rollins Foundation served as the lead gift, and we offer our heartfelt thanks to the Rollins family for their generous support. We were thrilled to have so many of them with us on campus to celebrate the occasion.

A second ceremony was held later in the day to dedicate the 40,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art Zell and Shirley Miller Library. Former U.S. Senator and Georgia Governor Zell Miller, ’51, his lifetime partner and wife, Shirley, ’54, and several members of their family cut the ceremonial ribbon outside of the new library.

The library more than doubles the College’s previous physical space, utilizing three floors of the center for group study rooms, reading carrels, computer stations, and areas for permanent and special collections.

In addition to the Zell and Shirley Miller Library, the Rollins Campus Center features the new 500-plus seat Grace Rollins Dining Hall, featuring made-to-order meals, grab-and-go options, multiple platform grills, a salad station and dessert bar.

The Charles Edwin Suber Banquet Hall provides an elegant, spacious venue for group gatherings, guest lectures, workshops and receptions. Featuring a sound system, retractable screen and portable stage, this multipurpose space is available to the surrounding community for rental.

Additional highlights of the facility include space for student activities and services in the third-floor Mary Ripley Warren Student Organization Loft, a multimedia theater with stadium seating, a Chick-fil-A® Express restaurant, a Starbucks coffee shop, and a game room with a pool table and foosball table.

Without a doubt, this building has truly become the new social and intellectual heart of our campus.

NEW ACADEMIC PROGRAMS AND LEADERSHIPThe educational experience at Young Harris College continues to offer diverse academic programs and

attract superb faculty and staff. In Fall 2014, the College added three new bachelor’s degree programs in creative writing, environmental science, and interdisciplinary studies that will prepare students for a variety of careers. The College also established two innovative minors—popular culture and sport studies. We also welcomed new academic leadership with Professor of Theatre and Dean of the Division of Fine Arts Chris Crawford.

Cathy Cox, President

2014–2015 PRESIDENT'S GIVING REPORT 3

Dear Trustees, Alumni, Students, Faculty, Staff and Friends,


President Cathy Cox presented Kaycee Cash, ’15, with the Zell B. Miller Leadership Award for significant contributions to campus life as an outstanding leader and role model during the 2015 Commencement ceremony.

Our students continue to impress both on and off campus. The College hosted the third annual Undergraduate Research Day, titled “From Paint Brushes to Petri Dishes,” in March 2015. Showcasing the research projects of YHC faculty and students from all academic disciplines, the day included 20 oral and 16 poster presentations on topics ranging from “Sleep and Working Memory” to “This is your Brain on Politics.”

Our Media Studies Research Collective, consisting of communication studies students and faculty, presented original research at two prestigious conferences in Georgia and California—where the group was recognized for being the only undergraduate presenters in attendance. Talented music and musical theatre majors blew the competition away at auditions for the Southeast Region of the National Association of Teachers of Singing, and our biology majors impressed fellow presenters by taking home the “Outstanding Undergraduate Presentation Award” for the third year in a row.

OFFICIAL NCAA DIVISION II MEMBERSOn Sept. 1, 2014, Young Harris College became a full and

active member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association’s (NCAA) Division II—the culmination of a three-year transition process that began in July 2011. This was truly a team effort for the College administration, coaches, and student-athletes, as well as the entire campus community who was supportive each step of the way.

The Mountain Lions made the most of their first season of NCAA postseason competition as well as all Peach Belt Conference (PBC) postseason tournaments.

The nationally ranked men’s soccer team enjoyed their finest season in program history, making their first-ever NCAA Division II Tournament appearance and advancing to the quarterfinals before losing to eventual champion Lynn University. The National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) presented Ilija Ilic, ’15, with the NCAA Division II Men’s Player of the Year award and the Men’s Scholar Athlete of the Year award. Coach Mark McKeever was named Division II Southeast Region Coach of the Year, and four players were placed on the NSCAA Division II All-America Team—more than any other institution. The team was also recognized as having the highest cumulative grade point average for soccer teams in the conference, and collected the NSCAA Academic Team award for the fourth consecutive year.

A record 188 Mountain Lions were named to the 24th annual PBC Presidential Honor Roll—a new record for the College and the top in the league. Each student-athlete on this campus exemplifies what it means to live a “Life in the Balance,” and we are extremely proud of their academic and athletic accomplishments.

A COLLEGE OF DISTINCTIONFor the fourth consecutive year, Young Harris College was

named to the prestigious Colleges of Distinction list for providing students with the best learning experiences in undergraduate education. YHC was among fewer than 300 colleges and universities from across the country and one of only eight in Georgia to earn the honor in 2014-2015. This accolade honors colleges excelling in key areas of educational quality: engaged students, great teaching, vibrant communities and successful outcomes.

In May 2015, we conferred 156 baccalaureate degrees on graduates and welcomed political strategist and public servant James Carville as the Commencement speaker. Carville, whose visit to campus paid tribute to his longtime friend, former U.S. Senator and Georgia Governor Zell Miller, ’51, delivered a humorous and inspiring message.

Our graduates have left the Enchanted Valley to embark on ambitious new journeys, but I am certain they will impact the world just as they have our campus.

We hope that as you reflect upon the many achievements of this past academic year, you will be as excited as we are about YHC’s future. We are committed to becoming an institution of national distinction, and with your help we are well on our way.

As you can see, the 2014-2015 academic year offered extraordinary opportunities for our students to learn, grow and succeed in the world outside of Young Harris. Your unwavering support of YHC allows us to continue our journey to excellence, preparing generations of students for fulfilling lives of service and leadership. Thank you for your faithful commitment to the future of this institution.

Warmest regards,

Cathy CoxPresident

Pam R. RollinsInvesting in the Future Capital Campaign ChairYoung Harris College Board of Trustees

As you will see in the 2014-2015 edition of the President’s Giving Report, this fundraising period was a historic one for Young Harris College. We have much to celebrate, including the record-breaking Investing in the Future Capital Campaign. Support for this institution remains strong among our friends and alumni, and we are thankful for the commitment you have made to our students. This report covers gifts made during the 2014-2015 fiscal year, which ran July 1, 2014, to June 30, 2015. Gifts made since July 1, 2015, will be published in next year’s report.

EXCEPTIONAL SUPPORTYHC’s donors continue to support our mission to educate, inspire and empower students to lead

us into the future. The 2014-2015 fiscal year saw 2,647 donors make an impressive 3,863 gifts—both all-time highs for the College—totaling $9,745,599.

For the seventh consecutive year, the Board of Trustees fulfilled its goal of 100 percent in giving. In addition, YHC faculty and staff support increased to 99.5 percent through the Purple and White Club. These percentages prove our stakeholders, administrators, and employees truly believe in the mission and goals of Young Harris College.

Alumni giving rose to 10.72 percent this year, and the Class Scholarship Challenge saw record numbers of participation. Sixty classes participated in the 2014-2015 challenge, and 24 surpassed the $1,000 goal. More than $92,000 was raised for student scholarships through this initiative. Congratulations are in order for the Class of 1947, this year’s winner of the annual campaign.

This spring, the College received two significant gifts. YHC Lifetime Trustee Dr. Harry Hill and his wife, Harriet, gave $1 million to benefit the Maxwell Center for Mathematics and Science. A classroom will be converted to a new laboratory dedicated to undergraduate research. Additional updates include a renovated lobby and energy-efficient HVAC and electrical system.

Mrs. Lillie Mae Green, a longtime friend of the College, gave more than $1 million in support of Enotah Residence Hall’s Green Family Lobby, which honors Mrs. Green’s late son, Ronnie, ’65, and the family’s legacy of hard work, savings and wise investing.

We are forever grateful to the Hills and Mrs. Green for their continued support of Young Harris College.

INVESTING IN THE FUTURE CAPITAL CAMPAIGNThanks to the incredible generosity and enormous energy of you—our alumni and friends—

the Investing in the Future Capital Campaign has become the most successful campaign in the history of Young Harris College.

With an overall goal of $55 million, the upward momentum of the campaign began when the Wilbur and Hilda Glenn Family Foundation gave the College a wonderful gift to provide the campaign infrastructure. Since then, you have generously supported this campaign, allowing us to far surpass that goal, ultimately raising more than $75 million to benefit current and future YHC students.

Each of you should take pride in the accomplishments of this campaign. We are pleased to announce the campaign raised more than $41 million for the Rollins Campus Center, more than $5 million in endowed funds, more than $10 million for the Young Harris Annual Fund, more than $10 million in restricted support and more than $6 million in planned gifts.

All of this was made possible through your generosity. We now look to the future of Young Harris College while reflecting on the rich history of this institution. Thank you for your steadfast support.

2014–2015 PRESIDENT’S GIVING REPORT 65

Founded in 1886 by circuit-riding Methodist minister Artemas Lester, Young Harris College is a private, baccalaureate degree-granting college located in the beautiful mountains of North Georgia. Historically affiliated with The United Methodist Church, YHC educates, inspires and empowers students through the highest quality liberal arts education. Long known for nurturing students during the first two years of college, YHC received accreditation in 2008 to grant bachelor’s degrees. The College currently has more than 1,200 students across five divisions— Education, Fine Arts, Humanities, Mathematics and Science, and Social and Behavioral Sciences. The historic campus in Young Harris, Ga., is currently undergoing major campus improvements to accommodate the College’s growth. Recent LEED-certified campus improvements include the 121,000-square-foot Rollins Campus Center, a 226-bed residence hall for freshmen, a 57,000-square-foot recreation and fitness center, and a 248-bed apartment-style residential village. In 2015, the College was named to the prestigious “Colleges of Distinction” for the fourth consecutive year, joining fewer than 300 colleges and universities from across the country recognized for providing the best learning experiences in undergraduate education.

2015–2016 Young Harris College Profile


The Investing in the Future Capital Campaign was born from a 2007 vote by the Young Harris College Board of Trustees to build on the College’s distinguished history as a two-year institution and become a world-class, four-year liberal arts college. The following year, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools accredited the College to begin offering baccalaureate degrees in Fall 2009. Also in 2009, the Board of Trustees authorized the Investing in the Future Capital Campaign, the largest fundraising effort in YHC’s history, to meet the growing needs of the College’s expanding enrollment, programming, faculty and facilities. In March 2012, YHC publicly launched the campaign with an overall goal of $55 million. The campaign aimed to raise $4 million for endowment, $5 million in annual support, $5 million in restricted support and $41 million for the new 121,000-square-foot Rollins Campus Center. The campaign far surpassed those goals, ultimately raising more than $75 million to benefit current and future students.

AMBITIOUS TRANSFORMATION

Enrollment growth of the magnitude and immediacy that YHC is experiencing requires enormous improvements and enhancements in the areas of academics, athletics, infrastructure and endowment. This transformation requires the highest commitment in terms of thorough planning, prudent investment, mindful execution and creative stewardship. This comprehensive capital campaign, Investing in the Future, provided the financial guidance to power the College’s strategic blueprint, enabling it to capitalize on current momentum and fulfill the vision of becoming a premier liberal arts college.

PRESERVING THE YOUNG HARRIS SPIRIT

While the College’s 10-year strategic plan called for doubling the student body to 1,200 and adding top-notch faculty to teach them, the College recognizes that students and alumni want to protect, preserve and enhance this special place. YHC believes that its close-knit, residential campus builds vital social skills and enhances academic success. Therefore, it will continue to be a walkable campus with glorious mountain views in every direction, a place with intimate classes that afford unexpectedly personalized attention, allowing students to bond with their professors and develop lifelong friendships with their peers. The College will continue to provide the distinctive high-quality education that it is renowned for, adhering to the Methodist tenets of a “warm heart and trained mind.” This is the very nature of YHC, past, present and future.

THE NEW HEART OF CAMPUS

The centerpiece of YHC’s master plan and the focal point of the Investing in the Future Capital Campaign was the construction of the $41 million, 121,000-square-foot Rollins Campus Center designed to catapult the student experience into the 21st century. Named for its $24 million lead gift from the O. Wayne Rollins Foundation, the Rollins Campus Center has become the signature facility at YHC—the social and intellectual heart of campus.

Located next to the historic Susan B. Harris Chapel, the three-and-a-half stories of this new glass, brick, and stone building creates a new hub of bustling activity, uniting social and intellectual aspects of a thriving campus, while optimizing the surrounding mountain views and maximizing outdoor space with numerous porches for inspiration and renewal. The Rollins Campus Center connects four distinct areas in a single, state-of-the-art structure: a 60,000-square-foot multi-purpose student center, an expanded dining hall boasting a wide variety of food stations, a 350-seat, versatile banquet facility and a 40,000-square-foot modern library named for Young Harris’ most famous son, Zell Miller, ’51, and his accomplished wife, Shirley, ’54.

Young Harris College Capital Campaign


1. CASH. The most common form of a cash gift is writing a check. You may also make a gift online at yhc.edu by using your credit card. Young Harris College accepts American Express, Discover, MasterCard and VISA.

2. APPRECIATED STOCKS. Gifts of appreciated stocks can be one of the most advantageous ways of giving. If your gift of stock is one you have owned for more than one year, you may deduct the full market value of the stock as a gift, while bypassing capital gains taxes.*

3. APPRECIATED REAL ESTATE. Gifts of appreciated real estate are like gifts of appreciated stock. Assuming you have owned the property for more than one year, you may deduct the fair market value of real estate as a charitable contribution while avoiding all capital gains taxes.*

4. INSURANCE. Life insurance is a unique way to give to YHC. To qualify, the College needs to become the owner and beneficiary. If the policy is paid up, your charitable contribution is generally the replacement value or cost basis of the policy, whichever is less. Premiums paid on a gift life insurance policy also qualify for a charitable deduction.

5. APPRECIATED PROPERTY. Gifts of tangible appreciated personal property (e.g., art) related to YHC’s exempt purposes are fully tax deductible at fair market value.

6. GIFTS-IN-KIND. Gifts of provided services or other intangible items related to YHC’s exempt purposes are fully tax deductible at fair market value.

PLANNED GIVING AND DEFERRED GIFTS

7. WILL. A properly drawn will is an excellent way to remember YHC and make a significant contribution. Gifts may be a designated amount, part of an estate or the residue of a will given at the time of the donor’s death.

8. LIVING TRUST. A donor may, in his or her lifetime, enter into a legal agreement or contract for the benefit of an organization such as YHC. The donor funds this trust with assets, but retains the right to terminate, cancel or revoke the trust. The trustor or grantor transfers property of any kind to a trustee, who invests and reinvests the property and pays the income to a named beneficiary. When the trustor dies, the trust is terminated or continued for beneficiaries for a definite period of time. At some time, either a trustor’s death or at the death of his or her beneficiaries, the principal goes to the College.

9. LIFE ESTATE AGREEMENT. Donors may contribute a personal home, a farm or other assets to YHC and retain the right to live in the home or farm and use the property to produce income. At the donor’s death, the property would go directly to the College without going through probate or taxation.

10. CHARITABLE REMAINDER UNITRUST. Created by the donor, the unitrust offers substantial tax savings while providing annual income to the donor or donor’s family. The unitrust is funded by transferring an asset to a trust — appreciated property or stocks are usually better. Within the unitrust, the assets can be sold and the proceeds reinvested to produce a greater yield for the donor(s) or beneficiary. The income stream is a fixed percentage of the net asset value of

the trust, and is valued annually. If the value of the trust increases, so does the income payout, providing a hedge against inflation. Immediate benefits of a unitrust include a current income tax deduction, bypass of capital gains taxes when sold, and potential increase in income. Upon the death of the donor, the trust assets are transferred to YHC.

11. CHARITABLE REMAINDER ANNUITY TRUST. Like the unitrust, the donor qualifies for tax benefits and an annual income stream. The major difference is that the annuity trust pays a fixed dollar amount based on the trust’s initial value. At the time of the donor’s death, the trust principal becomes the property of the College.

12. CHARITABLE LEAD TRUST. With this plan, payments are made to the charitable institution for a predetermined time, after which the trust corpus goes to a designated remainder beneficiary.
