Our most recent former editor, Sue Rothschild, will earn her Master’s degree in Accounting from the University of Missouri–St. Louis on May 16th The degree will be conferred with honors as only one B stood between her and a straight A record! Earlier this year, Sue was selected for membership in Beta Gamma Sigma. the national honor society in business administration. Only 270 of the 1,200 business schools in the country are eligible and accredited to install people in Beta Gamma Sigma. At the same ceremony where Sue was inducted into the honor society, she was also awarded the Faciali graduate accounting award.
This goes to the student in graduate business who demonstrates the greatest proficiency and understanding of accounting practices.
It is named for the 16th century Italian priest who developed the double entry system of bookkeeping Our congratulations to Sue and to all our May graduates.

A last minute addition.
We are glad to report that JoAnn Vatcha is doing well despite a vicious attack made on her by a thief on Tuesday, May 11.
This occurred in full daylight during the hours which we all take for granted as completely safe. None of us is used to taking extreme precautions at these times and it would be hard to accept the idea that it was necessary to do so in our neighborhood.
We can make sure that it won’t be necessary if we imitate the model provided by Gwen Berry, JoAnn’s neighbor, who came to her immediate aid and whose family all turned out to find the attacker.
It is this spirit which has and will make our neighborhood great. JoAnn’s many friends wish her a speedy recovery from her traumatic experience.
Please let us know your news!
