Dear Fellow Alumni, This past year has been an enjoyable experience as President of the University at Buffalo Dental Alumni Association (UBDAA) and I am looking forward to the upcoming year as well. There have been many accomplishments and changes over the past year that I would like to review. One of our biggest changes has been the reorganization of our staff at UBDAA. Lisa Jerebko, who had been our Buffalo Niagara Dental Meeting (BNDM) Coordinator the past 13 years, resigned to take on a new position outside the University. Her efforts have certainly helped in keeping the BNDM a premier event and we thank her for her service and wish her all the best in her new position. Leanne Walters, who was our part-time administrative assistant, also left for a full-time position. She did a wonderful job and we wish her a bright future as well. These changes allowed us to reorganize the staff responsibilities and hire Jaclyn Soda as administrative assistant to our alumni coordinator, Sherry Szarowski. Dean Joseph Zambon and the dental school have been very helpful during this transition, and it allows UBDAA to support our school on a higher level. These changes are only possible because of the excellent job Sherry has done and continues to do for UBDAA. Our Executive Council continues to impress me with all the efforts on behalf of UBDAA and our mission of advancing the activities of the School of Dental FROM Medicine and its alumni all for the betterment of our school, alumni and profession. We have been lucky to add some new, more recent alumni to the Council, which is so important in keeping our organization forward looking THE with new ideas and energy. I would also like to thank you, our alumni, for your support by being a member of UBDAA President and your financial support of the dental school through your donations. The completion of the Pre-Clinical Simulation Center, the remodeling of the clinics and the support of so many school projects depends on alumni engagement. I thought it would be interesting to list some of the projects and endeavors your participation through UBDAA helps support: BOCA Charity Auction, Billy Barue Golf Tournament, 100 Days Party, Student Awards, Commencement Gifts, Orientation Activities, Talent Show, Run for Smiles 5k Race, ASDA Pre Dental Scholarship, and Saving Smiles. We also support the school financially throughout the year in conjunction with discussions with the Dean. Our most recent commitment has been to the dental school through the Boldly Buffalo Campaign. I hope many of you have considered a gift through this campaign, as well as on an individual basis. In closing, your UBDAA plays an important part in the continued success and accomplishments of our school and students. As alumni, you share in the success of the past and the continued accomplishments of the future. In my final year as your president, I look forward to continuing the tradition of excellence of your UBDAA.

All rights reserved. 2 of 23 ICH BIN EIN TYPEFACE! ABOUT Monolisk is a rigid, gothic typeface that draws on inspiration from Eastmodern and Brutalist architecture. The letterforms are modelled on post-Soviet buildings – known for their visual rigidity and solid construction. Monolisk has been described as resolute and unapologetic. Personally, I chose to take that as a compliement. The design manages to deliver a dominant sense of uniformity, to the point of obstinance, while small unruly facets help to create an undertone of rebellion and dissent, providing an element of quirk and personality. A small poke at the old Soviet socialist paradox of (lack of) freedom through uniformity. Monolisk is currently comprised of 5 weights, each with a corresponding oblique. It comes with a wide range of language support, including most latin languages, as well as basic Russian. Monolisk — Designed by Jonny Gibson. © copyright Studio Buchanan 2017.

We stand in the enviable position of seeing projects many Wyears in the elcommaking come to fruition, while e also observing new projects develop from that energy of revitalization. No longer content to simply settle for the easiest path, we now purposefully create the community we want and deserve. The collective efforts towards our common goal are impressive. Elmira, the first of the cities in the Southern Tier to receive the $10 million Downtown Revitalization Initiative, has been followed by Watkins Glen, Owego, and, now, Hornell, respectively. What this means is that we are cementing anchors for revitalization in our region to attract redevelopment and, most importantly, talent. As our region tackles the issue of workforce development to support employer needs, primarily in Manufacturing, Healthcare, and Education, the revitalization of our cities becomes paramount. We must continue to create a place that people want to be; a place to call home. This year, we will look forward to watching the transformation of the Arnot Mall into a gathering place of the future.
