scholastic honor that can be earned by a During the ceremony, an honorary Doctor of Science was awarded to alumnus George J. Galasso `54, former associate director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and former executive director of the Foundation for NIH Research. In his acceptance speech, Galasso challenged the students to seek out risk and embrace the opportunities they are given during their careers. “You may make some mistakes, but learn from them and go on. Find out what you really enjoy doing and pursue it to the fullest,” he said. “Whatever you do, wherever you go, have confidence in yourselves, work energetically to make a positive personal impact to help improve the human condition, and in so doing reap the ultimate satisfaction.” Galasso became associate professor of microbiology in 1964 at the University of Virginia Medical School, where he conducted research and taught virology. Four years later, he was accepted into the grants associates program of the NIH, a highly selective training program for health science administrators, and began his career as an administrator of scientific programs. In 1969, Galasso was asked to initiate an antiviral research program for the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. He also was a leader in the interferon clinical trials and showed the efficacy of interferon in hepatitis, which led to its use against cancer. Appointed chief of the infectious diseases branch in 1973 with responsibility for development of vaccines and antivirals to combat all infectious diseases, Galasso later served as associate director for extramural programs of the NIH. He is the author of nearly 100 scientific articles and reviews. Founded in 1853, Manhattan College is an independent,
Catholic, coeducational institution of higher learning offering more than 40
major programs of undergraduate study in the areas of arts, business,
education, engineering and science, along with graduate programs in education

JNEWS: Farrelly, James J. (1974) — Pasco-Hernando group extends an offer http://www.sptimes.com/2007/10/19/Pasco/Early_Learning_Coalit.shtml Early Learning Coalition picks new leader ***Begin Quote*** NEW PORT RICHEY - If all goes as planned, a former James J. Farrelly, 57, has been offered the job as executive director of the Pasco Hernando Early Learning Coalition. “You’ll be happy to hear and we’re happy to report that we have reached an agreement in principle to hire a new executive director,” coalition vice chairman Jim Cook told the board at its meeting Thursday. The appointment is conditional upon Farrelly undergoing a background check and signing a written offer, Cook said. Farrelly also has asked first to visit the area and meet with coalition staff. He is expected to do that the week of Oct. 29. “I look forward to the opportunity of working
cooperatively with the ELC’s highly committed Board
of Directors, its energetic and knowledgeable staff, and the many caring
human services agencies located within the coalition,” Farrelly
told the St. Petersburg Times in an e-mail. “Most importantly, I am excited
about the prospect of working alongside parents and other interested
community members in Since 2003, Farrelly has been
executive director of Volunteer Guardianship One-On-One, a nonprofit agency
that provides court-appointed guardianship services in Before that, he worked from 1995 to 2003 as a consultant to public school districts. From 1991 to 2001, he was superintendent of Central Regional Public Schools, where he led three schools with a total of 2,000 students and 350 staffers, and managed a $35-million operating budget. He also served in other school administrative positions
and spent two years teaching in According to his resume, Farrelly
earned his undergraduate degree in secondary education/history from Farrelly, who board members agreed to offer a $70,000 salary, was among more than 80 applicants for the job. A committee narrowed that to seven finalists; six of those showed up for interviews. Farrelly, if he is ultimately approved for the job, would be the third director since the two counties merged their coalitions in 2005. {Extraneous Deleted} [Last modified October 18, 2007, 23:38:58] ***End Quote*** Farrelly, James J.

ADMINISTRIVIA: Some light at the end of the tunnel for @alumni.manhattan.edu addresses By {privacy invoked} DON’T QUOTE ME, BUT … … Last night, at the Manhattan College Information Technology Board of Advisors meeting, I found out that the responsibility for “alumni systems” has been transferred to the “regular” IT group. No longer will rogue IT uses be permitted on essential MC systems. (Duh!) So, what does that mean? The ability to get new, and change old, @alum.manhattan.edu addresses has been tied to limitations in the “alumni systems”. I’ve been griping about that at literally every opportunity for my fellow alums (i.e., I have mine and it still works). Relief should be available right after the holidays. The professional IT folks confided that it should be fixed shortly after EOY07. (They need a dead spot in the schedule to slip in some new code. Understandable.) Considering the pro’s track record, <<they are great imho>>, I feel that it’s going to happen. So a little more patience. That’s the cavalry bugle over the hill. Help is on the way. More when I get it. But don’t quote me! # # # # # |

The coarsening of society isn't sophistication, but a lack of respect for essential humanity. Every human has to be free enough to accomplish their dreams. Instead we stuff women in boxes (i.e., models have to be thin). Men have to be Adonis! Instead of valuing everyone, "we" as a society turn them in superficial objects to "service" our worst impulses.
