your Harvard club presents Melissa Essary:

Raleigh is the largest state capital in the country without a law school. Meet the woman leading the charge to change that.

Monday, May 11,  6:30-8:30 PM

Don’t miss out on this fascinating talk and the chance to mix and mingle with other Harvard alumni over wine and hors d’oeuvres at Wyrick Robbins Yates & Ponton – one of the Triangle’s leading law firms.

Longtime board member and former Schools Chairman Sam Wyrick (Harvard BA ’66, Duke JD ’69) has generously offered his law firm as a gathering space.

Your Harvard Club Program Committee is hard at work

The Program Committee is working diligently to prepare a full slate of Club events for 2009. Club members can look forward to luncheons, dinners, happy-hour gatherings and much more in the coming months. Do you have an idea for a Club event? Send an email to Program Chair Bob Whyte at cwhyte@mindspring.com. Bob is always looking for volunteers to help plan and coordinate events.

In the meantime, you can join the club or renew your membership. You won't want to miss out on a single event.
