Merry Christmas Card from Mrs. Dr. Norvel Young!
By Jennifer Kung
An elegant card for Merry Christmas was sent by Mrs. Dr. Norvel Young:
To: Dr. Tony Tung-tien Lei
President
Washington Business and Technology Institute
The cover is the photo of a colorful Malibu campus of Pepperdine University. Mrs. Young states the following on the first page: "The Lord, my shepherd is: I shall be well supplied; since he is mine and I m His, What can I want beside? ---Isaac Watts, 1719" *2 Dr. M. Norvel Young was Former President of Pepperdine University. His love and concern extended to the Asian Students in Pepperdine University have always been remembered. He was very pleased to be invited by Dr. Tony Lei and other alumni to a famous Japenese Restaurant for the grand "Teit Barn Sou"(in Chinese) in Taipei many years ago when Dr. Tony Lei taught Information Management at the Graduate School of Business Administration of National Chunghsing University.*1
Inside the second page presents the words of:
Lovingly, the shepherd leads his sheep
through pastures green.
He carries the lamb thru watersdeep.
Protects him against peril unseen.
The Lord is my shepherd.
Inside the second page also are good words from Mrs. Helen M. Young:
Wishing you a Christmas and New Year
Warmed by the touch of God's Love.*2
(Signiture.)
Helen M. Young

KIRA'S CORNER
Thanksgiving Day is coming! While I am deliriously excited to travel home, eat scrumptious treats and of course, sing the Thanksgiving song with my beloved family of completely unharmonious and tone deaf individuals; I often find my mood morose rather than jubilant. Why?
Thanksgiving is one day specifically dedicated to share and celebrate being thankful, grateful, understanding, and giving. It’s sad that we are given only ONE day for this purpose. Indeed it would take me the entire 24 hours to review my cumulative laundry list entitled “Things To Be Thankful For.” At some point while I am exercising my gratefulness, I can’t help but consider all those people who are less fortunate (hence my blue mood).
Last year, I recognized that my “list” grows infinitely each year and that a good part of my day of thanks is spent feeling overwhelmed and anxious, rather than untroubled and joyous. So this year, I made a concerted effort to chip away at my laundry list by setting aside time each day to be grateful and thankful, and to give back through various methods throughout the year.
So I am going to help each one of you knock one item off your list. Pepperdine University is grateful each and every day for their unique, caring, and generous alumni. Take five minutes to visit www.pepperdine.edu/giving and save that time to help Dad stuff the bird, assist Mom in setting the table, or teach the newest family member or special guest the Thanksgiving song…
"Thanksgiving Day is coming," Mr. Turkey said.
"Now I must be real careful or I shall lose my head."
The pumpkin heard the turkey, "I'm frightened too, Oh my!"
"They'll mix me up with sugar and spice and I'll be a pumpkin pie!

18th Annual Step Forward Day
Saturday, September 9, 2006
By Pepperdine University Alumni Association and Jennifer Kung
It is our pleasure to post the following information from Pepperdine University Alumni Association:
For 18 years, Pepperdine University has been committed to beginning each school year with a day of service to communities around the nation. Each year, students, faculty, staff, and alumni gather to help over 50 non-profit organizations, schools, churches, and parks in their respective communities. Last year alone, Step Forward Day drew over 1,400 volunteers from the Pepperdine community, who served a collective 4,200 hours (the equivalent of two years of work for one person). Step Forward Day is a great way to better your community, reunite with old friends, make new ones, and prepare yourself to "step forward" for the rest of the year *1
Pepperdine University alumni have the unique opportunity to bring this great tradition to their own communities! Emboldened by the noble supplication, Freely ye received, freely give, Pepperdine alumni have made Step Forward Day a nation-wide event! Check out how Pepperdine alumni are helping in "your community".*2

President Andrew Benton of Pepperdine University: You represent a distinguished "point of pride"
By Tiffany Chang
The following letter was sent by President Dr. Andrew K Benton of Pepperdine University to President Dr. Tony Tung-tien Lei of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) on August 30, 2005 from Pepperdine University in Malibu, California:
Dr. Tony Tung-tien Lei
President
Washington Business & Tech. Institute
2245 Homeland St.
Las Vegas, NV 89128-6792
Dear Tony,
I'm watching from my window today--from an office situated in a fouth-floor corner of Thornton Administrative Center--and see the future arriving, car by car. This is indeed a strategic vantage point, for from it I witness a pride-filled pilgrimage as parents bring their children to campus, their dreams packed in overstuffed duffels; a few telltale signs of trepidation on their faces. Image with me that in four years, these students will join YOUR ranks...as Pepperdine alumni.*1
This is a favorite season for me, and I write you to share a slice of the excitement we feel on the eve of a new academic year. It's my sith as president, and there is much for which I am thankful. As one of our more than 70,000 living graduates, you represent a distinguished "point of pride" that sets us apart and in many cases lifts Pepperdine into the upper echelon of America's best independent universities.*2
...........................................
Dr. Andrew K. Benton has served in higher education for nearly 30 years. He planned for a career as an attorney or probate judge in his hometown, and focused his education toward those interests. The desire to work with young people in their own pursuit of higher education was strong and he, instead, followed a career path that led to his current role as the seventh president of Pepperdine University. He assumed that position on June 16, 2000.
Benton received his bachelor of science in American Studies from Oklahoma Christian University and went on to earn the juris doctor degree from Oklahoma City University School of Law. He was admitted to the Oklahoma State Bar in 1979 and later to practice before Federal Courts. For ten years, Benton served in various administrative roles at his undergraduate alma mater. From 1979 until 1983 he also maintained a private law practice in the State of Oklahoma.*3
The letter is in full of the recent accomplishments of Pepperdine and Andrew's close concern to the alumni of Pepperdine. President Benton concluded the letter that "Meanwhile, will I see you at the Hollywood Bowl on September 23 for our Alumni Picnic and Concert? Please let me greet you and your family. The SPRIT OF PLACE that abides at Pepperdine remains a beacon from this campus to our alumni around the world. The stream of arriving students continues outside my window. And YOU, as the foundation of the future of this precious place called PEPPERDINE, remain in my prayers."
