At the May 18 DES Luncheon, Jerry Goldman placed in
nomination Dick Meister's and Doris Brown's names to fill the two open Steering
Committee positions. Not receiving any additional nominations from those
in attendance, he moved Dick and Doris unanimously be elected. And they were -- by
acclamation! Congratulations to Dick who continues on the Committee and
to Doris who replaces the slot previously held by Denny Shea.
Our outgoing Steering Committee member, Denny Shea,
enabled the DES Scholarship program to flourish under his leadership. Through his hard work, and in tandem with
Dick Meister, he lead the effort to raise more than $88,000 in DES scholarship gifts. To date, 10 scholarships have been awarded to
undergraduate juniors and seniors in needs of funds to complete their education
at DePaul University. Denny has also
spearheaded the effort to survey the DES membership to determine how the DES
can be more effective. The work on our
second survey will be completed this summer and the membership will hear about
the results in October. Denny, we can't thank
you enough for your service.
DES Officers and Committee Chairs will be elected at the June 7, 2012 Steering Committee meeting.
