Meg brought in a great article from Fortune.com from 4/30/03
entitled “Rotary
vs. Polio.” (click link to read it!)
A sign-up sheet was passed around for the 5/29/03 meeting which
will be a vocation tour of MiniTab in State College. Leann Martin
arranged the tour and spoke briefly about the company which employees
about 160 people and specializes in statistical software.
Another sign-up sheet was distributed for the Olympic Village.
We need to staff the Bocce Ball Court June 5th, 6th and 7th. We need
at least 2 people per shift.
Also, Terry Edwards needs about 30 people to assist with Bowling
at the Special Olympics.
Dave Filson
was inducted as a new member by Paul Bell and Carol Walsh. Dave received
his “red badge of courage.” He is a former member of the Lewistown
club, but recently started working in State College. He wants to be
heavily involved in our club. He’s a 3rd generation from a family
farm in Lewistown and his background is in agriculture. He lives in
Lewistown with his wife and 3 daughters. His wife is a school teacher
and a 4H volunteer. His oldest daughter graduated from Mansfield University.
He has another daughter starting at Penn State and his youngest attends
Indian Valley High School.
The Rotaract club is now an official Penn
State club. Thanks to Geoff and Todd for their work in that regard.
Discussions are still underway regarding
the club's centennial project. Right now we are trying to do something
in the parklet near Memorial Field with the evening club.
The club has
a list serv. All active members are on it. The email address for it
is SCDTROTARY-@LISTS.PSU.EDU. It only works if you are a subscriber so if you aren't on it and want to know
even more about the club Email Paul Rutter to see about your admission.
It is a private listserv
not open to the public. If you are already on it and want help with
it please call or email me.
We are also working on creating a charitable
foundation. The details are being worked out now. Thanks to Rose and
Roger for ironing out details.

2. Faculty and staff as close to destination as possible
3. Recover lost storage spaces for students
4. Two rate structure
5. Fair as possible
New parking decks are being constructed. An east deck is to be completed
by fall 2004. Maps were shown illustrating where the new lots will
be located for faculty and staff and students. There will be a new
