Richard and Tina Rosen Recognized
with Distinguished Alumni Awards
Brookville, NY - Boca Raton residents Richard L. Rosen and
Tina Lippert Rosen, long-time supporters of their alma mater,
the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University, were honored
with Distinguished Alumni awards at C.W. Post's commencement
ceremonies on May 14, 2000.
Distinguished Alumni Awards are presented to C.W. Post graduates
who have
achieved professional success and who serve as role models to
students. The Rosens will be honored along with another distinguished
alumnus: Michael Emmerman (MBA '67), a managing director and
a portfolio manager at the investment management firm of Neuberger
Berman, LLC.
Inseparable since they met at a campus dance in May 1968,
Richard (B.A. '70) and Tina (B.A. '71) are among the Campus's
most active alumni supporters. Recently, their generous donation
inaugurated the C.W. Post Arboretum Initiative, which is professionally
conserving and cataloging hundreds of campus trees and creating
exploration and study activities for students, faculty, staff
and the public.
The Rosens also belong to the C.W. Post Council of Overseers,
which raises scholarships for students, and the University's
Jonas Society, which recognizes people who include the University
in their estate plans. With a degree in political science, Mr.
Rosen has risen to senior vice president/investments at Salomon
Smith Barney, Inc. Mrs. Rosen has used her degree in elementary
education as a substitute teacher. The Rosens live in Boca Raton,
Florida, where they play an active role in charities including
the United Way and the South Palm Beach County Jewish Federation.
