Atlanta-Shepherd Alumni News

There is a reception here in Atlanta on Froday for local Shepherd Alumni, that unfortuantely I wont be able to get to, due to work. I spoke with Dr. Robert Holmes today, who is the organizer, and it turns out he wantsme to join him as well as David Dunlop, the Shepherd University President for a beverage on Friday around 9, when get off work to discuss trying to get an Alumni chapter off the ground. I was surprised to hear from him, but it may be kind of cool to get some Shepherd folks rounded up here in Atlanta every so often. Dr. Holmes tells me the University has a list of about 30 or so people who are here in the area, so if people want to d it, it could be a decent size group, who knows. Dr. Holmes actually sounds liks a pretty cool guy, he was a Georgia State senator, and was the director of the Southern Center For Studies Of Public Policy at Clark-Atlanta University. Anyway, should be kind of interesting, I'll keep an update on here after we meet...
