Join Your LEAGUE Friends!
All faculty and staff are invited to join the LEAGUE Committee on Professional Development Day, Tuesday, March 26. A complimentary lunch will be available from one of the three food trucks outside of Menard Hall. Bring your lunch to the Student Union to eat with your friends and enjoy a little entertainment. The theme of the LEAGUE Campaign is “Friends” and we will be playing some 90’s trivia.
Speaking of trivia, did you guess the LEAGUE Friend from yesterday was Mark Roehrs, professor of history? If you guessed correctly, your name will be entered into a drawing for a prize!
Can you guess the next LEAGUE friend?
They graduated from LLCC in 1998 and earned a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice. They began working at LLCC in 2004 and have held a few different positions over the years.
Married for 23 years, they have one son and two chocolate labs. They love spending time with family and friends and the beach is their happy place!
The reason they have donated to the LEAGUE campaign for the past 19 years is because they believe that any donation, no matter how big or small, makes a difference for our students. “Some years I ask that my donation goes toward student scholarships, other years I ask that it goes toward the greatest needs of the college. Either way, I know that our students will benefit from my donation, and it is one more way I can support them.”
Try to guess who this LEAGUE Friend is for a chance to win a prize! Submit your answer at LLCCFoundation@llcc.edu.

What is LEAGUE?
LEAGUE is an acronym for Leaders Establishing Annual Gifts Underwriting Education. It is the annual faculty and staff giving campaign and the purpose is to raise money in support of our students and programs. Since the LEAGUE campaign began in 1995, nearly $900,000 has been donated by faculty and staff members.
As the donor, you can choose how your donation will benefit students and programs including: the general scholarship fund, LEAGUE grants program or for the greatest need.
The LEAGUE Campaign will officially kick off on Tuesday, March 26 where you will have the opportunity to make a gift or pledge or complete this 2024 LEAGUE Form. The LEAGUE committee has chosen a “Friends” theme for the campaign.
Can you Guess Who This LEAGUE Friend Is?
This is their 23rd year at LLCC. Though not an alum, they have been playing noontime basketball in the gym at LLCC for 23 years and have been enrolled in the CEW class for that for about 8-10 years now.
They donate for a variety of reasons including:
- The swag.
- They designate the Lincoln Land Faculty Association Scholarship Fund because it’s important for the school, the students, and the union.
- “I donate because my daughter was fortunate enough to attend LLCC for free and got a fantastic education and I feel like I owed something back for that.”
