Recent ARCS Events

ARCS Atlanta members gathered at the home of Leslie and Skip Petter to celebrate our new members and kick off the 2017 - 2018 year.  As always, Leslie and Skip were gracious hosts and everyone enjoyed catching up after the summer in their beautiful home and garden.  A buffet dinner, catered by member Mary Hataway's company, Soiree, was delicious.

Membership VP Frances Swensson presented the six new members.  She gave us highlights of their resumés and everyone was quite impressed. Please read more about them in the fall issue of ARChives, our chapter newsletter.

Thanks from Scholar Laura Redmond

Thanks from Alum Courtney Pollard, III, MD, PhD, MedStar Harbor Hospital, Baltimore

Let me start by saying how thankful I am for being selected as an ARCS scholar.  I consider it one of my greatest achievements thus far and I am immensely proud to count myself as one of the amazing group of students that your organization selected to receive this award.  I want you ladies to know you are doing an outstanding job!  You all are embarked on a truly altruistic endeavor and it is my fervent prayer that this organization thrives for years to come.

Thanks from Scholar Kevin Yehl

"I was very fortunate to be selected as one of this year's ARCS scholars... I plan to pursue an academic career in chemistry... Your support will allow me to continue my biomedical research in developing novel strateigies to treat drug resistant cancers and cardiovascular diseases... Again, thank you so much for your support of the sciences and post graduate education, both of which are very important in keeping America competitive..."
