Why did you want to join the ÎçÒ¹AV Alumni Association Board of Directors and/or why have you continued for another term on the board?

I wanted to join the LUCAA Board of Directors because the National Alumni Advisory Board President, Harry Rosi, informed me that the Board needed alumni to assist in reconnecting ÎçÒ¹AV alums with ÎçÒ¹AV and the alumni base. Being on the LUCAA Board allows me to further assist ÎçÒ¹AV in its ongoing efforts to reconnect and maintain relationships with its alumni, and assist with alumni and student mentoring/networking.

What is one of your favorite ÎçÒ¹AV memories as a student and/or alum?

Some of my favorite ÎçÒ¹AV memories as a student were the 1985 basketball Sweet 16 run, living on Lake Shore Campus and working part-time for Marty Lane in Alumni Relations. As an alum, it was watching my daughter, Sofie, graduate from ÎçÒ¹AV and watching my daughter, Grace, attend ÎçÒ¹AV. Other favorite alumni memories include interviewing potential Arrupe students, attending home basketball games for over 20 years, as well as traveling for basketball games with the ÎçÒ¹AV community to St. Louis, NCAA games, and tours in Bahamas, SC, GA, and NY. I have also enjoyed being involved with the National Alumni Advisory Board and attending alumni events for the past 30+ years.
