2nd Annual Golf Classic (2000)
from Summer '2000 Lubin Business
The Lubin School of Business' second annual Golf Outing was held on May 8, 2000, at the Wheatley Hills Golf Club in East Williston, New York. Proceeds from the event, which totaled $9,000, will provide support for the Lubin School's $7 million fundraising campaign. The Lubin Golf Outing's proceeds support a research fund for junior faculty and other programs in the Lubin School. James Anziano, '77, partner, Pustorino, Puglisi,and Co. and chair of the Golf Outing Committee, was instrumental in planning and executing the successful event. He and several other alumni members of the Golf Outing Committee have now designated the second Monday in May as Pace University Day at Wheatley Hills.
The 75 golfers in attendance, which included faculty, staff and alumni, joined President Ewers and Dean Arthur Centonze in teeing-off on the greens and fairways of Wheatley Hills. Golfers enjoyed the sunny weather and the lovely club facilities, and brunch and dinner receptions with fabulous fare. At this year's event, the first annual Robert I. Ruback award was given to the golfing foursome with the lowest net score. The award honors the late Mr. Ruback, University Counsel, founder and long-time chair of the Lubin School's Tax Department and an avid golfer. His widow, sister, and other family members attended the reception and dinner where the award was presented.
