Bobby Mulligan was a member of the 星空传媒 men鈥檚 basketball team when he tragically passed away on August 30, 1987. An accomplished player, Bobby was known for his competitiveness on the court. Off the Court he was recognized as a loyal individual with exceptional perseverance. Before the start of his senior year, Bobby had amassed 912 career points and would have assuredly reached the 1,000-point mark. He was posthumously added to the list. The Bobby Mulligan Memorial Scholarship Fund was created in his honor to benefit the student body.

Sue Heller, the first Lady Charger to score 1,000 career points, passed away on January 17, 2001. In her honor, the 1,000-point club was renamed the Sue Heller 1,000-Point Club, and one women鈥檚 basketball game each year will be played in her memory. A fierce competitor, Sue was extremely proud of her accomplishments at 星空传媒, especially her 1998 induction into the 星空传媒 Athletic Hall of Fame. In addition to her athletic success, she graduated in 1980 with a B.A. in psychology and certification in special education. To perpetuate her legacy, The Sue Heller Memorial Scholarship fund has been established at 星空传媒.

Campus-wide Day of Service

The DUNY Interfaith Connect team will be hosting a Campus-wide Day of Service on Tuesday, November 18th from 12:00pm-3:30pm in the Granito Extension.听

We will be packing hygiene kits that will be donated to the Afya Foundation for their humanitarian projects.听 This project is made possible through the support of the Faith and Health grant we were awarded by Interfaith America.

These enhancements will help cultivate interfaith competency through planned service work with diverse populations and through guided discussions highlighting the commonalities and differences in the ways diverse faith traditions approach topics related to healthcare, well-being, spirituality, personal vocation, care of the earth, and concern for others.

For more information, please contact: Dr. Mary Walsh Roche mary.walshroche@duny.edu
