GroundbreakingIT IS WITH GREAT PRIDE and deep gratitude that wepresent to you this Commemorative Groundbreaking Editionof Rochester Nursing Today. If you weren’t able to join us lastOctober for Reunion, the following pages will hopefully sparkin you the excitement generated by the weekend’s events,highlighted by the official start of construction of the LorettaC. Ford Education Wing.

The largest expansion in the School’s 75-year history, this28,000 square-foot addition supports our goal of educatingmore highly skilled nurses, nursing faculty and nurse leaders.State-of-the-art improvements will include a high-tech audito-rium and four large classrooms. In addition to increasingenrollment, this construction will allow us to expand lifelonglearning programs and attract new students and faculty. It is afitting tribute to its namesake, Loretta C. Ford, RN, EdD,FAAN, dean emeritus, who advanced the vision of nursingeducation with the unification model and put Rochester in theprofession’s limelight. We look forward to updating you on theprogress of this expansion in future issues of this magazine.

This giant step in our progress is made possible by thegenerosity and support of donors who believe in our missionand understand the contribution that nurses make to healthcare, to our society, and to our quality of life. You’ll find thenames of many of those people and organizations in our annualdonor recognition list, beginning on page 23. Your enthusiasticsupport of our efforts is the reason we gratefully add pages tothis list each year.

Very often, donors are alumni or others who have a directlink to the School of Nursing or the University of Rochester insome way. On page 8 of this issue, we celebrate a unique andspecial donor, Marjorie “Dibby” Cleveland, whose dedicationto Rochester and respect for the nursing profession resulted inthe most generous gift in this School’s history. I was fortunateto meet Dibby years ago when, as a staff nurse at StrongMemorial Hospital, I cared for her daughter. I am honored thatshe recognized the value of nurses and the nursing professionand felt inspired to share her assets to support and encouragethose entering the nursing profession.

Sincerely,

Patricia Chiverton, EdD, RN, FNAP

It may have been a foreshadow or mere coincidence that, as a toddler, MarjorieStuber Cleveland posed for a photograph in nursing attire, her bright eyes and cherub facecrowned by a white veil with what appears to be a red cross. Those who knew her can onlyguess when her appreciation for nurses was born, but there is plenty of evidence that it blossomed later in her life. She demonstrated her respect for and support of the nursing profession and the Rochester community by bestowing to the School of Nursing the largestgift in its history.

Mrs. Cleveland – known as “Dibby” to family and friends – and her husband, Merrit,were philanthropists who believed strongly in supporting their community. Predeceased byher husband, Mrs. Cleveland made a generous gift to the School of Nursing before her deathin August 2003, as well as a charitable provision for the School in her will.

Mrs. Cleveland’s generosity gave momentum to the Future of Care Campaign, supporting the largest expansion in the School’s 75-year history and honoring her desire to support the future of the nursing profession in Rochester.

“It was Dibby’s wish that her gift be remembered as a part of the history of the Schoolof Nursing,” Dean Patricia Chiverton told gatherers at the groundbreaking ceremony for theLoretta C. Ford Education Wing. “I cannot think of a more historic occasion to celebrateher wishes. We are truly grateful for her support.”

kodak connectionMrs. Cleveland was the granddaughter of William G. Stuber, the man hand-picked by George Eastman to succeed him as head of Kodak. Eastman brought Stuber fromLouisville, Kentucky to Rochester in 1894, having followed Stuber’s progress and success as a photographer and creator of film emulsions.

Stuber’s vision and ingenuity fueled his rise in the company until, in 1925, Eastmanretired and appointed him president. In 1934, Stuber retired as president and became chairman of the board of Kodak. The company named him Kodak’s first honorary chairmanof the board in 1941. William Stuber’s son Adolph, who was Mrs. Cleveland’s father, alsoenjoyed a long career with Kodak.

giving back to her communityBecause her father and grandfather had prospered in Rochester, Mrs. Cleveland was committed to benefiting the community that had so benefited her family. “Her gift was bornof her desire to keep her assets local, and she had an interest in the Medical Center andNursing School,” says Scott Forsyth, Mrs. Cleveland’s longtime friend and attorney whoserelationship with the Stuber family dates back several generations. “I stepped into a relationship with Dibby that was developed by my father and grandfather,” Forsyth notes.“She had always been charitably inclined and wanted to keep her assets in the Rochesterarea to benefit local charities.”

Friends and family of Mrs. Cleveland recall that she held a deep appreciation for thenursing profession, possibly enhanced by her experience with nurses at various times whenshe or family members were ill. Among the nurses who crossed her path over the years wasPatricia Chiverton who, as a staff nurse, cared for the Cleveland’s late daughter Margo.

Mrs. Cleveland also befriended the Schoolof Nursing’s first dean, Loretta C. Ford,when she arrived in Rochester. “As the newdean in 1972, I became acquainted withDibby and her husband,” Ford says, recallingvisits to the Cleveland’s retreat in Naples,Florida, and how their husbands enjoyedfishing together. “Early in my tenure, Dibby gave a scholarship for students in psychiatric nursing, and offered advice onthe type of student she thought should have the award.”

Family and friends speculate that Mrs. Cleveland’s admiration of nursing, herdedication to the Rochester community andthe value she placed on education may allhave been ingredients in her decision to be so generous to the School.

“She had a longstanding interest in thedevelopment of nurses and foresaw anincreasing demand for quality nurses, so shehad a keen interest in promoting nursing as a career,” Forsyth says.

‘The right thing to do’“Aunt Dibby was a firm believer in valuesand principles - they were extremely important to her,” says her niece NancyStuber. A 1939 graduate of Vassar College,Mrs. Cleveland placed a high value on education and was always very generous,according to Ms. Stuber. “She was very outspoken and loved a good debate, as didher husband. She was willing to express heropinions, beliefs and attitudes, which gaveher a strong interest in community involvement.”

Despite their wealth, the Clevelandslived comfortably but were not ostentatious,Ms. Stuber recalls. And when they sharedthat wealth, they sought no recognition forit. “Aunt Dibby didn’t want recognition, it was just the right thing to do. She wasn’toutwardly religious but believed you had to do what is right. She used to say that in the end, it’s between you and Him.”

Mrs. Cleveland grew up on AmbassadorDrive in Rochester and married MerritCleveland in 1940. The couple’s home onWhitney Lane was often the center of family gatherings and holiday celebrations.She enjoyed a close circle of friends and wasan avid golfer, bridge player, and member of the Chatterbox Club.

Long-time family friend Sandra Watersremembers Mrs. Cleveland as a “very generous person.” Waters lived with theClevelands for seven years, caring first forMr. Cleveland until his death in September2001, and remaining with Mrs. Clevelanduntil her death at age 85.

“Their generosity was spread through-out the community; they did a lot of goodthat people would never know about,”Waters said. “They wanted to make surethat their money got to where it could help.”

Supporting nursing’sfuture In addition to a major gift to support thenew construction, Mrs. Cleveland fundedscholarships at both the School of Nursingand the School of Medicine and Dentistry.The University received an estate gift toestablish the Marjorie Stuber ClevelandEndowed Scholarships to attract and retainthe most gifted and talented studentsregardless of their financial need. In her willshe stated, “The money passing into thescholarship fund originated from servicesrendered in the Rochester area by myancestors and investments made locally bymy ancestors and me. Ideally, I would likethe aid dispersed to students who are likely to remain in the Rochester area after graduation.”

“Higher education meant a great deal to them,” Waters recalls. “With theshortage of nurses, Dibby felt really stronglyabout getting the brightest and best toRochester and keeping them at Strong. She had a great respect and appreciation fornurses and wanted to encourage the best to go into that field.”

Described by Waters as an extremely private person, she notes, “Dibby realized howfortunate she was to have had all that she had,and that drove her [and her husband] to giveso much throughout their lives.”

The School of Nursing is deeply grateful to Mrs. Cleveland and her familywhose support will have a lasting impact onthe School and on the nursing profession, especially in Rochester.

PRESENT, FUTURE ISSUES OF NURSING PROFESSION EXPLORED BY

PANEL AT CLARE DENNISON LECTURE A panel of experts explored

the state and future of the nursing profession at the 46th Annual Clare

Dennison Lecture during Reunion Weekend last October. Informative

presentations by Drs. Daniel Pesut, Margretta Madden Styles, Karen

Donelan and Loretta Ford were followed by open discussion

moderated by Dean Patricia A. Chiverton.

Pesut, president of Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society

of Nursing, is professor of Nursing and department chair of

Environments for Health at Indiana University School of Nursing. He

reviewed needs in the nursing profession around the world, noting

similarities in issues and trends in nursing world wide.

Donelan, who discussed economics and the nursing workforce, is

a senior scientist at Massachusetts General Hospital and an instructor

in Health Policy at Harvard Medical School. A survey researcher, her

focus has been on assessments of health professionals, employers,

payers and other health stakeholders, leading research efforts in more

than 20 nations and health systems. Her research efforts to assess

workforce issues for nurses and physicians amidst major changes in

health care systems and financing provided insight into workforce

issues for nurses today and in the future. She is currently collaborat-

ing on several projects assessing the image of nursing and the nursing

shortage among nurses, physicians, parents and teens and the general

public for Johnson & Johnson’s Campaign for Nursing’s Future.

Styles’ presentation focused on credentialing and process

building for nurses. Styles is past president of the American Nurses

Association, the American Nursing Credentialing Center, and the

International Council of Nurses and has been deeply involved

in harmonizing the interests of all nursing organizations throughout

her career in academic nursing. She has served as professor and dean

at several prestigious schools of nursing and is world renowned for

her expertise in professional issues.

ALUMNA HONORED AT SCHOOL OF NURSING LUNCHEON

Meredeth Anne Rowe, PhD ’94, was honored as the School of Nursing’s

2004 Distinguished Alumna at a luncheon gathering during Reunion

weekend. Dean Patricia A. Chiverton presented the award to Rowe,

an associate professor at the University of Florida College of Nursing

and Institute on Aging.

Highlighting Rowe’s impressive career is a body of research

related to studying dementia-related wandering and approaches to

improve the quality of life for care-givers of wandering patients.

Rowe earned her bachelor’s in nursing from the University

of California, served in several Army hospitals, and earned a master’s

in critical care nursing at California State University at Long Beach.

Upon completing her master’s, she accepted a joint appointment as

assistant professor at Montana State University and clinical nurse

specialist at Montana Deaconess Medical Center in Great Falls.

Her desire to further her education brought her to Rochester

where she earned a PhD in physiologic and psychological stress and

coping from the University of Rochester. She took her first faculty

appointment at SUNY Binghamton where she identified geriatrics

as a clinical area of interest and provided leadership for the formation

of a research work group. This group identified the wandering behavior

of community-dwelling Alzheimer’s patients as an area needing

further research.

Rowe identified the sleep problems of caregivers of Alzheimer’s

patients who wander as a serious health concern impacting negatively

on caregivers’ well being and the ability to sustain care-giving in the

home setting. She addressed this clinical problem through the develop-

ment of technology that would improve caregiver sleep while ensuring

the safety of wandering Alzheimer’s patients.

DISTINGUISHEDALUMNA AWARD

Her work was bolstered in 1998 by a Hartford

Foundation post-doctoral fellowship and is at the

heart of new technology being developed in

cooperation with Honeywell Corporation that will be

marketed as “CareWatch.” This development is now

being extended to homes of autistic children and

frail elders at high risk for falling.

A prolific author and presenter, Rowe produced

nine refereed research or research-related publica-

tions while a faculty member at Binghamton.Several

of her publications are in top nursing-related

research journals like Research in Nursing & Health

and Heart and Lung. Rowe’s research productivity

is remarkable, especially considering she worked

in an environment where there were no senior

research mentors and she had to “self-start”

interest in research among the faculty group. Her

success is an indication of her determination and

her commitment to a meaningful research career.

CLASS OF 1928’S SILVER TEA SET PRESERVED

TO HONOR NURSING’S FIRST CLASS

n the years before World War II,when nursing students lived in HelenWood Hall and worked at Strong Memorial Hospital, their days were oftenvery difficult. They worked long hours and cared for patients who didn’t benefitfrom the technology or medications available today.

“There were no drugs like we havetoday, no antibiotics,” remembers DorisHubbard Crough, D ’41. “We had morphine and other pain medications, but the patients were often in bad shape.”

I One tradition at the School of Nursingserved to help nurses combat the dailystress of patient care. Susan B. Crosby,supervisor of Helen Wood Hall, served teaevery afternoon in Helen Wood HallLounge (known today as Evarts Lounge forNancy Lyons Evarts B ‘54 and Dr. C.McCollister Evarts, M ‘50, R ‘64). “Wealways could come back from the hospitaland decompress,” remembers Crough.

Crosby would lay out the tea using theSchool of Nursing’s own china and a silvertea set, a gift of the Class of 1928. In true“high tea” fashion, a lace tablecloth wasplaced over one of the round lounge tables.In season, an arrangement of fresh flowersfrom Clare Dennison’s garden in HelenWood Hall’s courtyard accented the display.

The tradition of the afternoon teasproved to have a long-lasting influence.Several years after Grace Reid, supervisor ofinstruction, left her post, Crough helped tohost an alumni party in honor of the formerinstructor. The director of nursing at thetime, Eleanor Hall, commented to Croughthat she appreciated the environmentallyfriendly party, as no Styrofoam cups or dis-posable plates were used. Crough respond-ed, “Thank you, Miss Hall, but regardless ofthe environment, this is Miss Reid and wemust use the china and the tea set!”

Traditions sometimes fade and theafternoon teas slipped into Helen WoodHall history. In 2000, Crough approachedPat Chiverton, the School’s newly appointed dean, and suggested restoring the set. Chiverton greeted the idea withenthusiasm and Crough began the work of restoration. She brought the set to asilversmith, who noted the unusual

octagonal design and marveled that theSON seal remained affixed to each piece.The set was missing only a burner andan infuser, but the lids to several pieceswere bent and no longer fit. Despite thedents and bruises, the silversmith valuedthe sterling tea set at $6,000.

Today, the Class of 1928 Tea Set isgleaming and will remain so for years tocome thanks to a protective lacquer,according to Chiverton. “The set is on display in a beautiful curio case in theEleanor Hall Heritage Room, which islocated in the space formerly used asDennison’s apartment on the first floor. The tea set is finally in its proper place.

“I am grateful to Doris for her friend-ship to the School of Nursing,” Chivertonadds. “I have learned so much about thetraditions and the history of Helen WoodHall from her. This tea set is an importantreminder of the past and of our founders,the first class who graduated over 75 yearsago. We are pleased to have that heritagebe a part of the school today.”

Doris would like to hear from anyone whoknows the whereabouts of the Helen WoodHall china set. She remembers that “it wasSyracuse China, white with a royal blue bandand a few small flowers.” Please send anyinformation to Doris H. Crough, c/oUniversity of Rochester School of Nursing,Office of Nursing Alumni Relations, 300 East River Rd., Box 278996, Rochester, NY 14627-8996.
