2015 Fall Cocktail Party

The Atlanta Chapter of ARCS Foundation held its annual Fall Cocktail Party on Sunday, September 27th, the night of the Super Blood Moon eclipse! Although it had rained earlier in the day, more than 100 members and guests were able to spend the lovely fall evening together mingling outdoors. Chapter President, Jane Dolinger, welcomed everyone and thanked our hosts, Leslie and Skip Petter, for their generosity and willingness to share their home with us once again. The remainder of the program focused on VP for Membership, Sally Hinkle, who introduced our special guests: 7 of the Chapter's 8 new members.

Let me start by saying how thankful I am for being selected as an ARCS scholar. I consider it one of my greatest achievements thus far and I am immensely proud to count myself as one of the amazing group of students that your organization selected to receive this award. I want you ladies to know you are doing an outstanding job! You all are embarked on a truly altruistic endeavor and it is my fervent prayer that this organization thrives for years to come.

Thanks from Alum Alejandro Toriella, PhD, Assistant Professor, Industrial Engineering, Georgia Tech

Thank you very much for your support. It meant a lot. I had the opportunity to return to Tech as a faculty member last year. I’m very happy to be back and hope I can advise a future ARCS scholar soon!

Thanks from Alum Eliot Quon, Postdoctoral Researcher at National Renewable Energy Laboratory
