Welcome from Executive Director

Welcome to our GIV site! We are working to create a place that works for you -- a resource, a way to find old friends, a community bulletin board for announcements and news. What do you want to know? What would help you stay connected with the people who are important to you at GIV? Please let us know. This is a work in progress and we’re looking for your thoughts. Please email Elizabeth Dotson-Westphalen (Arts ’94) with your ideas. We want to hear from you!

Jean Olson, Executive Director
