PROGRAM:
ROB GALBRAITH introduced Glenn Sparks, Professor of Communications at Purdue, who spoke to us about living well in the age of electronic media. He noted that the percentage of Americans playing cards, eating at a nice restaurant, entertaining friends at home, attending a meeting or socializing in the evening has decreased in the past ten years. Men have fewer close friends than in the past. Mobility and reliance on media technology make it difficult to connect with people. However, physical problems result from the lack of contact with a network of friends. He congratulated us for having an impressive number of members attend our meetings every Tuesday. It really matters! |

RAY PEETERS introduced Daniela Giuliani and Sean Henderson from Harrison High School. Each received a certificate and a travel mug with the Four Way Test to commemorate meeting with us. |
