with Scholarship Benefit featuring the Dance Theatre of Harlem
 
February 11, 2002 -- The Alumni Chapter of the College of Management at the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University will hold a cocktail reception followed by a performance of the Dance Theatre of Harlem on Friday, March 15, 2002. The cocktail reception begins at 5:30 pm in Hillwood Art Museum; the dance performance will follow immediately afterward in the campus' Tilles Center for the Performing Arts. Proceeds from the event will go toward College of Management scholarships.

Graduates from the C.W. Post College of Management have a long history of excellence. Members of the alumni chapter are employed in leadership positions at such illustrious organizations as Hudson Valley Bank, State Bank of New York, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and various health care facilities. Members of the Executive Board of Advisors for the College of Management include Lawrence Bracken, New York State Supreme Court Justice, and alumnus George Gatta, Suffolk County Deputy County Executive.

The goal of the Scholarship Fund is to continue to make excellent higher education accessible to as many bright and motivated individuals as possible.

"At Long Island University, we believe strongly in our mission of educating students from all walks of life," says Ronald J. Sylvestri, a member of the class of 1966 and benefit chairman. "Benefit events such as this cocktail party and dance performance play a major role in realizing that goal. We are honored to host the Dance Theatre of Harlem."

Tickets for the reception and performance are $350 each. The reception will feature a 50/50 Raffle; tickets are $100 and only 300 will be sold. Journal ads start at $750, a portion of which is tax deductible. For more information, contact the College of Management Alumni Chapter at (516) 299-2420.
