Fall 2015 Inside This Issue President’s Message Jim Fordemwalt, 2015-2016 ASURA President Welcome to another year of ASURA activities and fellowship. The weather is beginning to cool and the days are getting shorter. School is back in session and, once more, ASU is right near the top as one of America’s largest universities and, is now ranked as a top research university. We can be proud to see it recognized as a great educational institution. Our ASURA year got off to a wonderful start with 80 people signed up for Meet & Greet on September 9. Our various committees are already busy working on activities of interest and importance to our members. As I write this, a group of ASURA retirees are touring Italy. The Travel Committee is planning a 2016 trip to Cuba. Closer to home, trips are in the works to the Dolly Steamboat on Canyon Lake, as well as a tour of a Phoenix landmark, the Tovrea Castle. The Luncheons and Special Events Committee is also planning events such as the Christmas Party in December. Our Government Liaison has already begun working with legislators and we are in the early stages of planning seminars on various issues of interest to ASU retirees, such as proposed changes in the retirement plan. Pre-retirement seminars are being organized for prospective members who are planning their retirement. The ASURA Board is also tackling the seemingly perennial problems of declining membership and increasing expenses. The 2015-2016 budget has been put together by the Finance Committee for approval by the Board. It shows that while we could do more if we had more money, ASURA is still quite solvent. All of us on the ASURA Board are looking forward to a year filled with interesting and informative activities. We welcome all suggestions from you for activities and programs you would find interesting and useful. Please feel free to contact me with all of your suggestions at jfordemwalt@cox.net.

The first interview, in early September, was of Harry Lundgren, Professor Emeritus of Engineering. He came to ASU in 1961 and made use of ASU’s earliest computers for structural engineering course work. Remember programming with a box of punch cards? Don’t drop the box!! Our goal is to make all 113 recorded interviews available by streaming from the ASU Library Digital Repository to your home computers . To upload and provide associated “metadata” (you’ve heard this term with Wiki-Leaks) to the Library, may, depending on the help we can recruit, take several years. Some of the work can be done from a volunteer’s home computer with not a great deal of computer savvy and complication. Interested? Write: scheatzle@asu.edu. We will train. A continuing reminder: Linda Van Scoy continues to develop YouTube clips for the ASURA website. There are short clip highlights from the longer interviews. Go to https://asura.asu.edu/VideoHistoryInterviews. Here you will find a complete list of the 113 interviews to date. At the end of a person’s name, if you see the words “(video clip)” underlined and in red, you can put your curser on this red underlined phrase and left click with your mouse. The video clip will start to play. Video History Crew Members: Roger Carter, Dave Scheatzle, Linda Van Scoy and John McIntosh ASURA Office Updates submitted by Linda Van Scoy and Nancy Lesko, Co-Coordinators We are pleased to welcome a new volunteer to the ASURA office staff. Effective September 16, Tara Roesler will be joining us staffing the Wednesday afternoon shifts (1-4p.m.) on all but the second Wednesday. Bev Buddee will continue the second Wednesday afternoon each month. Tara was with ASU for 13 years and you may remember her as Tara Fuchs, working in the Comptroller’s Office and the Budget Office, followed by 21 years at the State level, retiring in 2005. Welcome Tara. And while we add new members we say thank you to two volunteers who will not be continuing as office volunteers: Mary Williams served from 2011 to 2014 and Anna Marie Shivers from 2008-2014. We appreciate their many years of service. Office hours are Monday through Thursday, 9-noon and 1-4. We have decided to continue with closing the office on Fridays so if you need to reach us or stop by, it is best to call first, (480) 965-7668, to make sure someone is there. We are still short one volunteer for the Thursday afternoon shift. So please let Linda or Nancy know if you would like to try that out. If you attended the Meet and Greet in September you may have noticed there were fewer tables and chairs in CSB 330. The room has been reconfigured with a cap on the number of seats allowed for the size of this classroom. So if any board members or committee chairs plan to use the room for events and meetings, keep in mind that there is seating for only 48 now. The office now has a supply of colored markers for white boards in the conference rooms. Please pick them up in the office and return them after use. Arizona State University Retirees Association Prime Times 4 Fall 2015 ASURA Needs Your Old Books! Are your bookshelves too full? Are you downsizing your office or your home and don't have space for all of your books? Donate your used books to us, and we will work with our partner, Friends of the Phoenix Public Library, to sell them. We'll use proceeds of the sale to support our programs. The ASU Foundation, a separate nonprofit organization that exists to support ASU, will provide you with a gift receipt for tax purposes. Half of the proceeds will be invested in our endowed scholarship fund, and half will be used for our Video History project. Earnings from the endowed scholarship fund are earmarked for our ASURA Scholarship. If you have books you can donate, please visit our web site at https://asura.asu.edu/BookDrive and print our donation form. Complete the form and either scan and fax or email to Mary Stevens, chair of the Book Drive project or mail it directly to the ASURA office.

Ms. Nimi has a superb academic record transferring from Scottsdale Community College and presented enthusiastic recommendations from faculty at that college. Ms. Nimi expressed her thanks and appreciation to ASURA for her award: “Words cannot express how much I appreciate, and it makes me feel proud to have been selected for this scholarship. Thank you again for your generosity and support. I promise you I will work even harder to give back to the community and others with exceptional academic performance.” She hopes to become a chemical engineer working in the energy field. The ASURA Scholarship Committee met in April to select the scholarship student after reviewing applications from a number of outstanding candidates. Students are selected on the basis of academic achievement, financial need, academic and career goals, and other factors. The personal statements from candidates reflect their ambitious and diverse goals. Recipients of the $10,000 award must have had at least five years since high school graduation and cannot have completed more than one semester at ASU. ASURA members have a chance to meet each year’s scholarship student at our annual meeting in the spring, where the student gives a short talk about his or her experiences and interests. Over the years, these scholarship students show what outstanding students are attending ASU from all of its campuses, colleges, schools, and departments—truly an amazing collection.

Arizona State University Retirees Association Prime Times 6 Fall 2015 The 4th Annual Meet and Greet Pizza Party submitted by Jan Thompson and Barbara Eschbach (Photos by Don Nilsen and David Scheatzle) The Meet and Greet Pizza Party is getting more popular each year. This year we had more than 80 people register compared with the 35 we had in 2011. The pre-party panel discussion for new members was also well attended. The event kicked off with the “What I Wish I’d Known When I Retired” panel session organized by Jan Thompson. A standing room only group of more than 30 new and "seasoned" retirees contributed to a lively discussion. Jim Hardina, retired ASU Police, started the discussion, which ranged from pension and financial concerns to health care, physical activity, volunteerism, and post-retirement occupations. Bob Mings, Jerry Poe, and Jay Braun were instrumental in keeping the panel session flowing. Jan Thompson Meanwhile Linda Van Scoy, Carol Berg, Carol Moore, Joy Shearman, Don Nilsen, David Scheatzle, and Jeri Meeks were busy getting the party room ready. Around 11:30, 17 pizzas, 120 cookies, three containers of brownies, and two containers of lemon cakes arrived … all thanks to the work of Barbara Eschbach and Rick Wall. Once the food had been dispatched, a short program was presented during which this year's Board and the committee chairs were introduced. The committee chairs spoke about their upcoming activities. Barbara Eschbach, Rick Wall The attendance was around 50, which was a bit disappointing given the registration numbers, but there was a nice mix of new faces and old hands. Attendees enjoyed the opportunity to meet new members and old friends.

Van Buren St., Phoenix You've all seen the Tovrea "castle" but now how many of you know: (1) anything about the Tovrea family, (2) who actually built the castle, and (3) whose idea was the cactus garden? Join ASURA on a tour of the castle and gardens to find out the answer to these and other interesting tidbits. The tour will begin in the visitor center with a short video highlighting the history of the Castle. Next, we will board carts and be driven around the property where we will see the unique cactus gardens and outdoor features. The carts will then take us to the Castle where you’ll have an opportunity to go back in time and learn about the man inspired to build the castle and the people that made it their home. The tour will conclude in the visitor center. Since the tours are limited to 13, ASURA has arranged for two sessions — 8:30 am and 11:00 am. If you took the tour last year please let your fellow ASURA colleagues have a chance to go this year. The tour cannot accommodate wheel chairs or scooters.
