"Empowering Local Communities" was the theme of the evening at this year's President's Dinner at which attorney Herbert Hafif was honored with the 1997 University of La Verne President's Award.
Opening with a one-liner and an update on scandal in Washington, former presidential press secretary Marlin Fitzwater sent roars of laughter through the formal ensemble of guests at the first annual President’s Dinner at the Ontario Airport Marriott on Jan. 20.
According to a recent survey, the University of La Verne is ranked third highest among private colleges and universities in the 1991-92 academic school year at graduating Hispanic students in California.
After eight years of service to the University, Henri Mascorro resigned her position as a student accounts assistant last month, after a demotion had been repealed in her favor, but no lateral transfer to another department could be granted at the time.
