Our first in-person event in more than a year took place on November 5, 2021. President Virjee hosted a luncheon at the Fullerton Arboretum honoring our Emeriti and Benson scholarship awardees and their families. Ten of our 12 awardees were able to attend in person along with members of their families. Each awardee received a $2,000 scholarship.
