January Membership Meeting and Luncheon
On January 10, 2018, our Winter Meeting and Luncheon was held at the Woodruff Arts Center. Our speaker was Dr. Wally Curran, Executive Director of the Winship Cancer Center at Emory University. As is our tradition, the ARCS Light for 2018 was announced. The membership was asked to submit nominations which were then voted on by the past ARCS Lights. Susan Higley is this year's ARCS Light. Gracia Conn, last year's ARCS Light presented the award to Susan.
Following the meeting and luncheon, Carolynn Cooper arrange for members to have a guided tour of one of the current exhibits: Al Taylor, What Are You Looking At?

Thanks from ARCS Atlanta Scholar Alum Deborah Kilpatrick, CEO Evidation Health
The work you (ARCS Foundation Atlanta members) have all done is tremendous, and I am so proud to be a part of that legacy. I hope that my work is making you all feel that there has been a good return on your investment.
Thanks from Alum Alejandro Toriella, PhD, Assistant Professor, Industrial Engineering, Georgia Tech
Thank you very much for your support. It meant a lot. I had the opportunity to return to Tech as a faculty member last year. I’m very happy to be back and hope I can advise a future ARCS scholar soon!
