We are also very fortunate that our own alum, Tony Alessandra ’69, will serve as emcee at this year’s Christmas Brunch. Tony began speaking professionally while still a doctoral student in the late 70′s. He was inducted into the National Speakers Association Hall of Fame in 1985 and is a member of the Speaker’s Roundtable – a group of 20 of the world’s most recognized professional speakers. Dr. Alessandra engages his style as both a performer and a professor. Tony grew up on the streets of New York City, where he intuitively began his study of people and their behaviors, their diversity and their loyalties. His sense of humor developed from those humble beginnings as much as his ambition to succeed. He has a street-wise, college-smart perspective on business, having worked his way to success as an entrepreneur, business author, and keynote speaker.

Christine Lyke ’79 will be in town from Tuesday, December 6 until Sunday, December 11 as she makes plans to relocate from Illinois where she has worked as an administrative professional and served as a local club president. She would appreciate the opportunity to meet with anyone that week to start making connections and find potential job opportunities.

I recently posted the resumes for graduating Law students Kareem Salem and Matt Thelen on our Jobs Board. Last summer, Kareem worked as a Summer Associate at a firm in Indianapolis while Matt worked as a Law Clerk in Pasadena. Both have lived in San Diego and are looking for entry-level opportunities in the area. Take a look at their profiles on the Jobs Board to see if you, or someone you know, might be able to lend them a hand.
