September was full of good times plus the beginning of Fall. Many of you attended the University Women’s Club Fall Luncheon and enjoyed the music of Juan Carlos Zamudio and the QV Chamber Ensemble.

The Annual Welcome Reception featured our special guest, Robby Benson and his wife Karla DeVito.

University Club Co-President, Kate Kroll, with Robby Benson and Karla DeVito
Spirits were high as the well-heeled, and sold out, crowd at the University Club’s Welcome Reception eagerly anticipated the arrival of special guests, Robby Benson and Karla DeVito. The reception is the annual kick-off celebration to launch another year of dazzling and delightful programs, special events, and speaker luncheons at the UClub. Always a grand affair, this year’s soiree was no exception. Every- one thoroughly enjoyed themselves and raved about the delicious hors d’oeurves provided by our friends at Meadowood. UClub Co-President Kate Kroll, gave the couple a terrific introduction by sharing some little-known facts about Robby and citing Karla’s life motto, “There is no future in specialization.” You said it Karla! Robby and Karla charmed guests with their funny, and warm-hearted, stories of how they met and their adventures in show business. Afterward they patiently answered questions from the crowd and posed for pictures. It was a delightful evening.
Thank you Robby & Karla — welcome to the University Club!

October's birth flower is the pumpkin bloom!
Just kidding—it's actually the marigold. Marigolds are often given as a sign of warm or fierce, undying love, or as a way of saying that you're content with being with the recipient. The other October flower is cosmo, a symbol of order, peace, and serenity.

October 14 - US Trade Policy
By Michael O. Moore and Robert Maxim
America's foreign policy tools are not limited to sanctions, treaties or military campaigns - they also include the sales pitch. The logic behind this pitch, or "economic statecraft," is simple: promote the benefits of democ- racy and the free market. In so doing, the U.S. will gain valuable and stable partners, both in business and in diplomacy. Now, as China and other emerging nations battle the U.S. for global influence, Secretary Kerry will take the reigns as a free market matchmaker.
