The chair enhances the UNMC College of Nursings ability<\/p>\n<p>to attract and retain a prominent nursing scholar. In addition, the fund<\/p>\n<p>provides support for the research and educational activities of the chair<\/p>\n<p>recipient.<\/p>\n<p><P>We are extremely excited about this endowed faculty position and the<\/p>\n<p>opportunities it holds for the College of Nursing, said Ada M. Lindsey,<\/p>\n<p>Ph.D., dean of the UNMC College of Nursing. This fund provides us with<\/p>\n<p>the means to attract an outstanding faculty member to assist us in providing<\/p>\n<p>excellence in education and research. The many donors to this endowment<\/p>\n<p>show a clear and strong commitment to nursing. The leadership and generosity<\/p>\n<p>of the alumni and friends who have contributed to this chair illustrates<\/p>\n<p>their pride in the College of Nursing and its students.<\/p>\n<p><P>The UNMC College of Nursing Alumni Association began the funding initiative<\/p>\n<p>for the chair in 1989.&nbsp; The fund received a large boost in 1996 when<\/p>\n<p>the Lienemann Family Charitable Foundation and The Ethel S. Abbott Charitable<\/p>\n<p>Foundation made a combined gift of $200,000 to support it. That same year,<\/p>\n<p>the Alumni Association Board of Directors approved the renaming of the<\/p>\n<p>endowed chair to recognize this gift made in honor of Charlotte Peck Lienemann,<\/p>\n<p>a 1945 College of Nursing graduate. A chair recipient will be announced<\/p>\n<p>following a national search.<\/p>\n<p><P>My wife was an inspiration to those she served through nursing, said<\/p>\n<p>Del Lienemann, Sr., president and manager of The Ethel S. Abbott Charitable<\/p>\n<p>Foundation and husband of the late Charlotte Peck Lienemann.&nbsp; Nursing<\/p>\n<p>is a valiant profession that gets to the heart of helping others. We are<\/p>\n<p>pleased to help UNMC in its efforts to attract a top quality instructor<\/p>\n<p>to better prepare nurses for the important job that lies ahead of them.<\/p>\n<p><P>Lienemann, of Lincoln, again pledged his assistance for the fund in<\/p>\n<p>1997 at the colleges 80th anniversary celebration.&nbsp; The chair had<\/p>\n<p>surpassed the $500,000 interim endowment goal established by the Alumni<\/p>\n<p>Association, leaving a remaining $500,000 to be funded. Lienemann pledged<\/p>\n<p>a $250,000 gift, challenging the College of Nursing to raise the remaining<\/p>\n<p>$250,000 by Dec. 31, 1999 to fully fund the chair. Over 1,000 alumni, faculty,<\/p>\n<p>staff, friends and foundations contributed gifts and pledges, fully funding<\/p>\n<p>the $1 million chair.<\/p>\n<p><P>The support shown to UNMC by the Lienemann Family Charitable Foundation<\/p>\n<p>and The Ethel S. Abbott Charitable Foundation as well as the many alumni<\/p>\n<p>and friends who contributed to this fund is spectacular, said Harold M.<\/p>\n<p>Maurer, M.D., chancellor of UNMC. The College of Nursing is an outstanding<\/p>\n<p>institution and this new faculty position furthers UNMCs commitment to<\/p>\n<p>a quality education. We are grateful for the opportunity to expand our<\/p>\n<p>research and teaching efforts.<\/p>\n<p><P>The University of Nebraska Foundation is a non-profit corporation supplementing<\/p>\n<p>support for students, faculty, facilities and programs at the University<\/p>\n<p>of Nebraskas four campuses through gifts from alumni, friends, corporations<\/p>\n<p>and other foundations.<\/p>\n<p><P>UNMC is the only public academic health science center in the state.<\/p>\n<p>Through its commitment to research, education, outreach and patient care,<\/p>\n<p>UNMC has established itself as one of the country&#8217;s leading centers for<\/p>\n<p>cancer research and treatment, solid organ transplantation and arthritis.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly $32 million in research grants and contracts were awarded to UNMC<\/p>\n<p>scientists during the past fiscal year. In addition, UNMCs educational<\/p>\n<p>programs are responsible for training more health professionals practicing<\/p>\n<p>in Nebraska than any other institution.<\/p>\n<p><BR>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Nebraska Medical Center announced today that funding is complete for the $1 million Charlotte Peck Lienemann and Alumni Distinguished Chair in Nursing.
