This fall newsletter probably finds you busy with work, family and hopefully an occasional football game (with tailgate). This year’s Baylor students are expectantly enjoying their second semester and a few maybe dreaming of what it would be like to enjoy a tailgate party of their own. All reports from the program director, LTC Lee Bewley, are that the class of 2011 is going full steam ahead. The alumni association leadership is working a number of initiatives this year. We are currently making final arrangements for this year’s Baylor Dinner in Chicago, reviewing a number of Baylor Alumni sponsorship proposals and reviewing and updating the constitution and bylaws. As in years past there’s been an effort by the alumni committee to advance the networking capability of the alumni association. With the advent of computer technology plus the development and introduction of networking sites this newsletter introduces a number of productive websites. I would like to encourage you to take a minute to review and participate in the websites mentioned. In addition, I ask that you make special note of a letter from Larry Johnson.
