Students had a chance to meet the dynamic duo instructors, Nabih Elhajj and Rich Johnson, and connect with one another to learn about the program. They got a small taste of what's to come and, as with every Sangamon CEO experience, had a ton of fun! We are looking forward to a fantastic year with this great group. Check out their Instagram for a video highlighting the event. |

In Memorium: Connie Regan (RMB) It is with deep sadness that we share of the passing of iSPI Member and friend, Connie Regan. Connie was an astute business woman, a friend to everyone, and loved by all who knew her. Her legacy continues on through the lives of her children and beloved grandchildren. We miss her dearly. A beautiful tribute was written about her and can be found here. A memorial fund has been created in her name at UCB, with proceeds benefiting her grandchildren. |
