Founding Members of the Dean’s Leadership Circle Honored

 

When the Dean’s Leadership Circle “DLC” was first chartered in April 2005, the very same day when Paul Merage named the School, the goal was 50 charter members. A few months later when the charter period closed there were 93 charter members! To commemorate these charter members who will forever be recognized as the founding members of today’s fastest growing support group on the UC Irvine campus, the Dean’s Leadership Circle at the Merage School dedicated a beautiful new plaque with each charter member’s name. Now the DLC has grown to an amazing 240 members within 2.5 years and has raised more than $700,000 in its first two years alone! Over the next three years, the DLC has launched a new campaign to raise $1.2 million to recruit a new, senior faculty member to the School. While the DLC is not limited to Merage alumni, the DLC Executive Committee which is lead by a dozen alumni leaders who work directly with the dean to designate funding towards the highest priorities of the School, chose those that impact the rankings which in turn help make the Merage degree more valuable for all of you who hold this distinguished degree.
