And the winner is... The Alumni Association Board of Directors has established a new award honoring outstanding service to the Alumni Association—and proudly announces that the first recipient of the new “Alumni Board Award” is Elizabeth (Betty) Dolan, OP ’46. Sister Betty recently completed a threeyear term as a member of the Alumni Board—but she has served the Alumni Association for many more years. Prior to this term of service, which was a return of sorts, Sister Betty served as alumni director and Alumni Association moderator, and held various executive positions on the Alumni Board. In 1973, then-President Hugh Thompson appointed Betty as alumni director. She had previously spent a year on the development staff and two years teaching biology and ecology to Siena science students. A native of Jackson, Betty now lives at the Dominican Life Center. She received the award, which was a surprise, at an Alumni Board dinner in May. She was nominated for award consideration by Dorothy Burns, OP ’50.
