    The University of Detroit mercy presents another encore presentation of a classic ask the professor radio program today's show takes us back to October 2005. Thank you so much Michael Jayson. This is Ask the Professor, the radio show where you match wits with the University of Detroit Mercy witless professors in an unrehearsed session of questions and answers here in Motown. I'd like to introduce today's panel to you and then our special guest, I should say guests in the plural. So let me start at the far end of the table from the Department of Communication Studies our media maven himself, It's Professor Jerry Curtsinger. The L.S. program. Excellent. I spent about an hour talking about that a little while ago. Trust me, who is the director? It’s Stephen Manning. Manning is. Okay, I know it's shifted. Yes, it did. It really did and I'm here because I'm not in hockey for a change. But we are so glad, but we're so glad that puck is back in our house, I couldn't stand another one of those CBC movies on Saturday night. The worst part is that Mac’s On Third I think is no more, I know. Oh, and we send out condolences first of all to Tony Bruce, and very sadly Tony's mother has passed away. So, again, our deepest sympathies and condolences to the whole Bruce family who always treated us like family. So we're sad to hear that. Truly, I know that the issue is a legalistic one, it's the famous Michigan Liquor Control Board thing that is just__ Poor Tony, so we had hopes and prayers that things work out for Tony and that someday we'll be back down at Mac’s eating some hamburgers and taping some great shows.

The Guide is available on-line as an e-document, at: www. Homenetmen.net The Homenetmen Leader’s Guide was Developed on the Occasion of the 100th Anniversary of HOMENETMEN As a Tribute to its Remarkable Contribution to Armenian Society, In the Hopes of Educating Future Generations of Leaders to Carry on the Torch. SY 2 PREFACE Homenetmen has bylaws, rules and regulations, but no formal leadership development program. Governing bodies also do not have a comprehensive orientation guide for new board members. Hence this guidebook. This Guide is primarily written for the leadership of Western USA Region. However, the entire Homenetmen family with all of its Regions and Chapters could use this guidebook, with minor adjustments of region specific information. WHY Do We Need to HAVE a GUIDE for LEADERS? Every nonprofit organization needs a board development process. Homenetmen has to give tools to those leaders who are expected to lead our youth, to better explain to them their role and responsibilities, educate them about their position and functions and help improve their performance. Quality leaders are better mentors. This Guide may be utilized for two purposes: 1. As a reference handbook, adopted by any Homenetmen leader, or 2.
