Personnel notes

Melanie Rehberg
Former Admissions Counselor Melanie Rehberg received an autographed ELI T-shirt at the June graduation.

IN THE OFFICE. . .
Melanie Rehberg left ELI in June, after receiving a promotion to the Office of Continuing Education, where she will handle admissions for their distance learning programs. We were happy for her success, but sorry to see her leave. Kelly Galvin has succeeded Melanie as ELI's admissions counselor and is doing a wonderful job in her new position. Christina Friedlander, work study employee at the ELI for nearly the past two years, obtained a full time position with Rondstat, Inc., and has her first "real" job. Best wishes, Christina! Chris Wolfe, our legal studies coordinator, received a promotion as a result of a position reclassification, and we congratulate him for the recognition he has received for his efforts to develop our legal studies programs.

AMONG THE FACULTY. . .
We were pleased last January to welcome Mary Beth Worrilow and Susan Coakley to the ranks of our full time faculty. Mary Beth, a summer teacher for many years, will now grace the ELI with her presence throughout the year. Susan Coakley quickly got her feet wet coordinating teacher training programs to much success. Both have proven to be wonderful additions to the faculty. Ruth Jackson and Kathy Vodvarka both passed their thirteenth year peer reviews. How fortunate the ELI is to have colleagues with such rich classroom experience. We said good-bye to Ricka Grollitsch and Karyn Horn, both of whom landed full time positions in the Colonial School District as ESL instructors. Ricka and Karyn had taught at the ELI for a number of years and will be greatly missed. Naomi Migliacci, who made many fine contributions to our Business ESL and PreMBA program, has left ELI to complete her doctoral dissertation. Soon we will all be addressing her as "Dr." Migliacci. Kate Hayne returned home to San Francisco to resume her teaching there, closer to her family. New faces to ELI classrooms include Elena Hopkins and Vivian Vischetti. We were also delighted to welcome back Mary McCloskey, who is now teaching in our ESL program for the Christina School District.
