Sept. 11 Alumni Connections

Many of our alumni continue to be involved in the aftermath of Sept. 11 in a variety of ways. Many are engaged in trying to fathom and interpret the ramifications of that day for themselves and for all of us. "Sept. 11 Alumni Connections" is a forum for these stories.

If you have a story to tell, a project you're working on or a message to share about the aftermath of Sept. 11, please send it in, and we will publish it in this section of Alumni Connect.

The Todd Joseph Ouida Memorial Children's Fund has been established to create a meaningful legacy for Todd. Please visit our website at www.mybuddytodd.org to learn more about Todd and the fund."

 

 

Ron Golditch Block '63, president of the Rotary Club of Newbury Park, Calif., sent this picture of his trip to Ghana for a Rotary National Immunization Day. "Rotary has set a goal to rid the world of polio by 2005 and hopefully the end is in sight," he wrote. In this photo, he's giving "two precious drops of vaccine" to a baby girl.

"The trip took place a month after 9/11 and while retribution was the theme of the day I thought it also important for Americans to reach out with a caring hand. The people of Ghana greatly appreciated our efforts in the light of events."
