HER CADET STORY:

Susan’s contributions to the Corps were as an Administrator and eventually a Development Professional.  Beginning in 1980 and continuing through 1984, Susan was an administrator for the Corps on a volunteer basis.  She handled the merchandise operation, assisted with all record keeping and fund-raising, assisted with food service and tour planning.  She quickly became the #2 person, more or less, in a world where there was little assistance. 

 

By 2009 she took on the role of Director of Development.  With her guidance, professionalism and work ethic, the YEA! And Cadet fund-raising efforts grew in strength and success. 

 

Before the end came at the hands of a tragic vehicle accident, Susan was on the way to establishing an excellent development department complete with successful campaigns and events.    More importantly, her charm and her NYC spirit made a difference for students, for alumni for the office team and the administration.
