Dear Colleagues, I am happy to announce that Dr. Gandy of Atlanta, Georgia, a prominent alumnus, will be on campus next Friday to endow a permanent fund for our NOBCChE chapter. The amount that he plans to contribute is $25,000. This amount will provide the chapter with about 5% of total endowment amount each year forever (but to begin a year from now). I will work with the Chapter to plan how this funding can be used most effectively - not to replace department support but to enhance NOBCChE effectiveness. Could as many as possible NOBCChE members join me next week Friday to meet Dr. Gandy. Mike -- Michael P.
