 President’s
Newsletter - November 6, 2011
Dear Delta Gamma At-Large Members,
It was wonderful to see nearly 100
participants at our Delta Gamma At-Large Chapter
Chartering on October 26, 2011 at the Wisconsin Club.
New and current Delta Gamma members, including Marquette
and Alverno nursing faculty and community leaders
gathered to celebrate this historic event and commemorate
Delta Gamma’s
rich 32-year history. |
It was very special to have Karin
Morin, President of STTI preside over the event as
one of her last official duties before she became
the Past President of STTI several days later at
the 41st Biennial Convention in Grapevine, Texas. |
|
We were also pleased that Sarah Morgan,
Region 4 Coordinator was able to participate at this
historic event as well. |
The program began with Karen Morin
reviewing the rich history, mission, vision and values
of STTI. She then performed the Charter Amendment,
adding Alverno College to the Delta Gamma Chapter.
Representing Alverno College for this segment included
me, Carol Sable, Dean Pat Schroeder and Patti Varga
as seen here with the new At-Large Charter and Coat-of-Arms. |
|
Margaret Callahan, Dean of Marquette
College of Nursing then offered congratulatory remarks. |
|
Pat Schroeder, Dean of Alverno College
School of Nursing also delivered her congratulatory
message. |
