Professor Robert Cohen As the founding professor for Drama more than 40 years ago, the Claire Trevor Professor has maintained contact with virtually all of his former students, which has yielded significant dividends for the School. Professor Cohen doesn't toot his horn in this regard--his former students toot it for him! Revered among our Drama alumni, they have demonstrated their allegiance to the former Yale standout by leading campaign efforts for the School and are well represented on the CTSA Dean's Leadership Council. This is a reflection of Professor Cohen's lifelong commitment to educational and professional excellence. We are very fortunate to have Professor Cohen in our midst! | Back to top | Pam Miller | Back to top | Dean Nick Alexopoulos | Back to top | Janice Briggs | Back to top | Michael Hooker | Back to top | Purpose Of The ProgramTo encourage and reward outstanding stewardship | Back to top | Who Can Participate?The entire UC Irvine community, including academic and administrative staff, as well as friends and supporters of the university, are encouraged to nominate an individual who demonstrates outstanding stewardship. | Back to top | How Can I Participate?Nominations can be made through an email to StewardshipStar@uci.edu.

(Quarterly and annual awards will be determined by the University of California, Irvine Foundation Stewardship Committee.) | Back to top | About The Program"Stewardship is an organization’s philosophical commitment to the value and importance of donors as well as their gifts; a belief, an attitude, that each donor – whether individual, corporate or foundation – contributes more than money, and that gifts are a symbol of the donor’s belief in the values, purpose and importance of the organization." The Stewardship Stars program will recognize individual and team efforts that are especially effective in nurturing all-important relationships with donors. The University of California, Irvine is committed to being the leader in donor stewardship as stewardship is the foundation for building lasting relationships between the university and those who become its most passionate long-term advocates. University of California, Irvine Foundation leaders are convinced that effective stewardship is critical to the future philanthropic success of the organization. The Foundation is implementing the Stewardship Stars program to encourage and reward enhanced stewardship practices across the campus; the best stewardship is a global/institutional responsibility that is the most effective when practiced by every member of the university community. Stewardship is not a one-size-fits-all model. Successful stewardship is tailored to the nature of the gift and to the needs, wishes and preferences of the donor whether the donor is an individual, family foundation or corporation. Stewardship is the process of acknowledging and managing gifts in a consistent, timely and appropriate manner – and in a way that responds to the donor’s wishes and expectations. Good stewardship also provides an opportunity for ongoing communication and relations with donors to demonstrate the use and impact of their gifts. Many of the most effective stewardship practices as small, inexpensive, and extremely thoughtful. But in every case, appropriateness, timeliness, accuracy and creativity remain at the heart of effective stewardship.
