Alumni Letters to Joe Libertelli, Director of Alumni Relations, and Dean Shelley Broderick

Hi Joe!

I just wanted to let you know that the hot job tip that you informed me of panned out! The DC Trial Lawyers Association offered me the Liaison position and I accepted. I am scheduled to start on December 17th.

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you very much for always being there to help and for your quick e-mail responses. I hope to do the school proud in my new position.

Please let Dean Broderick know that I truly appreciate her efforts as well. If it had not been for both of you I'd still be flapping in the wind! Have a Happy Holiday Season and I hope to see you all soon.

Joe,

Thank you for also keeping me informed about all the happening at DCSL. I am currently living and working in Johannesburg. I own Wine South Africa, a wine import and export business. I also serve as Legal Advisor to FPO Technologies, which recently become a contender for a large privatisation tender in South Africa. I have done things here I have never dreamed: hiking, canoeing, tracking game.

Keep up the good work!!

Joe,

FYI. I am a 1977 graduate of Antioch School of Law. After practicing law for 15 yrs in DC, SC, Va., and NC (first with the federal government and then as a legal aid lawyer during the Reagan/Bush years), I joined the faculty of the University of North Carolina's School of Government where I am a professor of public law and government.

Dear Joe,

I very much enjoy getting news about UDC Law & Antioch Folks. Thanks for keeping me posted.

Sincerely yours,

Shelley,

Hope the holidays find you and yours happy and healthy. It has been a big year here personally and professionally. At work we rang in the 60 month time clock for Tenant Assistance for Needy Families in October and only 3 individuals in NH actually lost benefits. When welfare reform took effect in 1996, NH had over 5,000 families subject to the 10/01 shut off. Though the economy cooperated, we still think these numbers suggest our program works. We continue to monitor these vulnerable families as the word "recession" is officially uttered confirming what most of us already knew. Additionally, two of my cases have been appealed to the NH Supreme Court - keeping me busy and swimming with the big fish.
