Edison Community College Hosts 8th Annual
Graduate Academy Conference
Edison Community College’s Graduate Academy will feature William T.
Sturtevant at its 8th annual Graduate Academy Conference being held
Wednesday, May 18, from 8:15 a.m. – 4 p.m. in the theater of the Piqua
main campus.
This annual conference brings together executive directors, board
members, staff and volunteers to explore topics in depth topics related
to not-for-profit management.
“The Edison Graduate Academy’s conference is a great way for those in
the not-for-profit fields to find ways to better serve their
communities,” said Terri Jacomet, Edison Vice President for
Institutional Advancement. “We’re incredibly fortunate to have this
program here at Edison to share with our area organizations.”
This year’s program will feature Sturtevant, the senior principal gifts
consultant at the University of Illinois Foundation. Sturtevant played
a central role in the University’s recent $1.5 billion campaign. During
his years at Illinois, he has been directly involved with more than
$450 million in major gifts.
His presentation, The Artful Journey of Cultivation, will provide
insight into what motivates donors, ideas and techniques of
cultivation, and making decisions that lead to successful development.
The conference is made possible due to the support of The Duke
Foundation.
Registration for the event is due by May 9. For more information, or to
