KU Endowment Annual Report · Yet, while we have met some goals, others remain. We still need enhanced funding for scholarships and graduate fellowships, to enable more future leaders

2014KU EndowmentAnnual Report

The foremost international association of educational institutions has honored the University of Kansas for the overall performance of its fundraising programs — for the third consecutive year.

The Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) named KU and just three other public research universities to receive its 2014 Educational Fundraising Award.

In recognition of the three years of success, CASE conferred an additional award on KU, for Sustained Excellence in Educational Fundraising.

While we are proud of this achievement, we know the true credit goes to thousands of alumni and friends. You bring the love and passion that enable us to carry out our mission. We offer our heartfelt gratitude and admiration, for without your generosity, none of this would be possible.

Excellence, sustained — and rewarded

Excellence is an art

won by training and

habituation. We do not

act rightly because we

have virtue or excellence,

but we rather have

those because we have

acted rightly. We are

what we repeatedly do.

Excellence, then, is not

an act but a habit.

Aristotle

Sustaining excellence is no easy task. It takes a great deal of persistence and hard work, and an unwavering belief in reaching the next higher goal.

That’s why we’re so proud of what we’ve accomplished this year on behalf of the University of Kansas and The University of Kansas Hospital, thanks to your generosity. In fiscal 2014, for the seventh consecutive year, private giving reached another record — $253.2 million — a remarkable 45 percent increase from last year.

By all counts, it was an outstanding year. Our support for the university and hospital also set a new record of $124.1 million, and returns in our Long-term Investment Program reached 16.8 percent.

There’s a nobility of purpose in the many areas you support. Many students would not be here but for scholarship funds provided by private donors. These students leave KU transformed, ready to lead richer lives and use their skills and knowledge to serve their communities. The state is transformed every year, too, as some 4,300 undergraduates and 2,400 graduate students renew the supply of emerging leaders.

Thanks to your support, KU researchers are addressing some of the great challenges of our time — climate change, energy and transportation, cancer, diabetes. They are uncovering new ways to use literature and the arts to enrich people’s lives and expand our thinking. They are unlocking the past and illuminating the future. And they are pioneering treatments that extend and improve the lives of patients.

We don’t take your generosity for granted. It’s a light shining brightly on KU’s present and future.

With our deepest gratitude,

Drue Jennings Dale SeuferlingChairman of the Board President

Dear friends,

Far Above: The Campaign for Kansas was launched to help the University of Kansas and The University of Kansas Hospital achieve their loftiest goals. The campaign seeks support to educate future leaders, advance medicine, accelerate discovery and drive economic growth. This year’s record giving, provided through Far Above, is gratifying, and it provides momentum to sustain our efforts.

This success confirms our belief in the value of education to lift students and society. The campaign is already delivering results, strengthening both the hospital and the university and making our ambitions a reality. Far Above donors have created hundreds of scholarships and dozens of professorships, and have directed their support to research initiatives and capital improvements at the hospital and across all campuses.

Yet, while we have met some goals, others remain. We still need enhanced funding for scholarships and graduate fellowships, to enable more future leaders to make their educational dreams a reality. We must continue to bolster our support for faculty, so that we can continue to recruit and retain the highest caliber of teachers, scholars and researchers.

I have every confidence that we will achieve these goals and more. The desire to lift students, and the society we serve, unites us as Jayhawks, and is what will drive us to even greater heights. Thank you for being part of that effort.

To sustain our mo st precious resource — people

Evidence of excellenceGifts have the power to transform students’ lives. With scholarship support, KU students have amazing opportunities at their fingertips. This year, about 6,500 students received scholarships from KU Endowment funds, totaling $28.3 million.

To celebrate, we’ve posted a collection of videos in which a few of these students explain how scholarship support has helped them flourish at KU.

To sustain the institution

If KU is to sustain its excellence, private support will become increasingly important. With state support now below 20 percent of operating budget, the university depends increasingly on private giving to fund its growing needs. In fiscal 2014, KU Endowment disbursed $124.1 million in institutional support for the university and The University of Kansas Hospital, a new all-time record. This represents payments from endowed funds as well as expendable gifts.

Since our founding in 1891, we have provided about $2.1 billion in support to the university.

Isaiah Logan almost didn’t make it to KU.

“KU was the dream place for me, the best fit,” he said. “Being a small-town boy, thinking I’ll probably go back to a small-town location, I thought I should be educated in a place that emphasized that. But because of financial restrictions I really had to take a look at whether it was KU or some other place. Luckily, KU Endowment stepped in and offered me the difference between in-state and out-of-state tuition, and that was the difference between my coming here or not.”

During Logan’s eight-week family medicine rotation, he spent six weeks in Pleasanton, Kansas, primarily in a family medicine clinic. He also worked in the hospital, doing surgery, working in the emergency room, and “just about everything.”

To sustain students“It was probably the best experience I’ve had so far in medical school, as far as interaction with patients goes. I actually felt like I was a doctor.

“I’ve really enjoyed my experience here at KU. I’ve been president of the medical student assembly for two years and done tons of things I probably wouldn’t have experienced at any other location. So I really do appreciate the donors and KU Endowment for making it possible for me to be here.”

This year, about 6,500 students like Isaiah Logan received scholarships from KU Endowment funds, totaling $28.3 million. Loans, fellowships, awards and prizes raised the total of direct aid to students to $34.4 million.

Also this year, private donations created 91 new funds supporting scholarships and fellowships and 20 new student award and prize funds.

In our quest to educate future leaders, we believe scholarships constitute both the great equalizer and the impetus for academic distinction.

Rosemary O’Leary was happy to return to her alma mater.

After she earned a bachelor’s degree in English, a master’s in public administration and a law degree, all from KU, she earned a Ph.D. in public administration from Syracuse University. She taught at Indiana University-Bloomington and Syracuse for 24 years.

Two years ago, KU beckoned, and O’Leary returned to take a named, endowed professorship, to join KU’s School of Public Administration — with the highest-ranked program in local government management in the country — and to teach alongside “the best professor I ever had” — John Nalbandian, now retired.

“I believe my focus should be on students as great learners, rather than on myself as a great teacher,” she said. “I concentrate on four streams in the classroom: knowledge, critical thinking, creative thinking, and an enthusiasm for public service.”

Her research centers on collaboration as a leadership and management strategy. She also offers training, presentations, coaching and workshops for working administrators, exploring collaboration as applied to their challenges.

To sustain faculty“As a professor of public administration, I believe it is my responsibility to share my knowledge with practitioners and to learn continuously about the challenges they face,” she said.

Without faculty members like O’Leary, KU could not sustain its success. The faculty now numbers more than 2,600 people who, in addition to teaching, pursue promising research and offer public service across Kansas and beyond.

This year, donors enabled KU Endowment to provide $32.6 million in direct support to faculty. Private giving boosts salaries, provides awards honoring excellence, and supports professional development and travel.

In fiscal 2014, donors gave $4.7 million to establish six new professorships, four at the KU Medical Center and two in Lawrence. Faculty members holding named, endowed positions at the university now number 182.

Endowed professorships often qualify for additional salary enhancement by the Kansas Partnership for Faculty of Distinction Program. Since the state established this program in 2000, donor support for KU faculty has enabled the university to receive $9 million in supplemental funding.

Private giving through KU Endowment strengthened academic programs across the university. Philanthropy enabled KU to bring top-flight scholars, thoughtful lecturers and breathtaking performances to the campus. It also expanded the scope of outreach programs throughout the state and supported valuable acquisitions by KU’s library system and museums.

This year, donors enabled KU Endowment to provide $43.1 million to support educational and program activities at KU.

In October, visiting artist and former Marine Folleh Tamba and KU students discussed poems written during and in response to World War I. The Spencer Museum of Art’s Public Programs and Visitor Experience Manager, Amy Duke, arranged the session; her position is supported by KU Endowment’s Friends of the Art Museum Fund.

In October, students and faculty occupied a new, contemporary addition to Marvin Hall. Known as The Forum, it contains a commons space and a 121-seat lecture hall. It’s the largest project ever handled by Studio 804, a program in which KU architecture students handle virtually all the design and construction work. Private donors largely funded the $1.5 million project.

We also saw significant progress on several high-profile projects made possible by generous donors; all are due for completion in 2015 or 2016. Milestones include:

• Capitol Federal Hall — Utility relocations and a drilled-pier foundation base are complete for the new home for the School of Business.

• DeBruce Center — Foundation work has begun on this innovative student center on the south part of the Lawrence campus; it also will house Naismith’s Rules of Basket Ball.

• Marie S. McCarthy Hall — Site preparation is complete for this student apartment complex near Allen Fieldhouse. Foundation work will begin in December

Expenditures for facilities, $17.6 million this year, are determined by the timing of the university’s construction projects and often shift significantly from year to year.

KU Endowment manages endowed funds with care to provide a stable, perpetual source of support for learning, discovery, patient care and public service. In fiscal year 2014, our investments experienced strong positive returns. We invest endowed and similar long-term funds collectively in our Long-term Investment Program, which includes more than 3,500 individual accounts. The value of these funds makes up 71.8 percent of KU Endowment’s total assets.

The program outperformed its benchmark for the fiscal year, with a total return of 16.8 percent, compared to 16.7 percent for the benchmark. For the five-year and ten-year periods ending June 30, 2014, the program posted returns of 11.9 percent and 7.5 percent, exceeding the benchmark returns of 11.6 percent and 7.4 percent respectively. For the 26-year period ending June 30, 2014, the program has exceeded its absolute financial objective of preserving the real (inflation-adjusted) value of endowment principal, by producing a total return of 9.2 percent compared to 8.6 percent for spending plus inflation.

Global returns in fiscal year 2014 were uniformly positive. Equity returns were particularly strong, with many countries posting double-digit returns. Developed markets as a whole have now recovered their 2007 peak. Accommodative central bank policies and generally stable economic conditions in the U.S., Europe and Asia supported these gains.

Given an environment where central banks continue to do whatever it takes to keep market prices stable, we remain committed to the core principles of the endowment model with an equity-biased, broadly diversified portfolio that is rigorously rebalanced.

Performance objectivesOver the long term, the absolute objective is to achieve a total return that meets or exceeds the rate of inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, plus the total spending rate from the Long-term Investment Program. The relative objective is to achieve a total return that meets or exceeds a combined benchmark of appropriate capital market indices, weighted according to the portfolio’s target asset allocation. This chart shows the total return for the portfolio since the inception of performance measurement in June 1988.

Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance. Performance is net of external investment-related expenses (e.g., managers, custodians and consultants).
