On March 22, 2023 we assembled in the Community Room, 505 N. Lake Shore Drive, home of Mary Houston for a light dinner and a presentation. Our speaker & Foundation Scholar for 2021 was Mackenzie Gentz. She made her circumnavigation in the summer of 2022 due to Covid complications. Clicking on her name will give you more information about her and her research topic: "Linguistic Baggage: A Global Examination of Adult Accent Training in English as a Second Language". To learn more about all 22 scholars our Chapter has sponsored over the past 2 decades: Click here. This was a bittersweet moment for our chapter. We had managed to catch up after the damage Covid did to the plans of our Foundation Scholars, who are supported by Deanna Padgett, VP - Foundation. But earlier this month a long-time chapter member and officer, Barb Franch, passed away. Only a week after this chapter meeting there was a celebration of Barb's life set up by her family and friends. To recognize and honor Barb, our chapter made a donation to the Foundation which supports our Foundation Scholars. And Barbara Gail Franch's name was entered on our Over the Horizon Page where we honor our dear members and remember our beloved friends. |
