The Jepson faculty and staff hope to see many alumni
at the following fall events:
The School will kick off
its 15-year anniversary celebration with a cocktail reception, dinner
and dessert bar at the Jepson Alumni Center on Sunday, Sept. 9.
President Edward L. Ayers and
Dean Sandra Peart will give the keynote
addresses. Invitations containing all the relevant details will be
mailed to alumni this month.
Jepson has partnered with
the Women Involved in Living and Learning (WILL) Program to create the
2007-08 Forum "Rhetoric and Reality. Race and Gender, Power and
Politics."

The University invites all
alumni to participate in a full slate of
Homecoming activities November 2-4. Because most Jepson faculty
members will be attending the annual conference of the International
Leadership Association in Vancouver, British Columbia, that same
weekend, the Jepson School does not plan to hold its own Homecoming
reception this year but encourages alumni to attend the many
campus-wide functions.
Thanks to a grant from the
Claude Moore Charitable Foundation, Jepson will host a midday
bioethics forum on Nov. 28 at the Jepson Alumni Center.
Edmund D.
Pellegrino, the founding father of modern medical bioethics, will give
the keynote address. If you are interested in attending this event,
please contact
Nancy Nock.
Finally, make plans to attend one of the many presidential welcome
receptions for the University's ninth president,
Edward L. Ayers.

reception schedule to find a location and date convenient for you.
