P. Locker was elected the 10th president in January and will serve a
two-year term through 2002-2003. Locker has been a board member since
1988 and served as vice president since 1998.
Locker,
the owner and president of Locker Realty Corp. and Locker Realty Mgmt.,
which he founded in 1996 in Glendale, has chaired the Golf Tournament
Committee as well as the Investment Committee during his time as
treasurer of the Foundation.
"Building
on the strong leadership in the past I look forward to guiding the
Glendale College Foundation through the exciting changes that lie
ahead,'' Locker said. "As always, the Foundation will concentrate
its efforts on supporting and promoting the college in every way
possible.''
Three
new members of the Foundation Board of Directors were introduced at the
meeting Jan. 15 in the J. Walter Smith Student Center. The new board
members are Dr. Maria Rochart, Barbara Marshall and Greg Gregorian.
The
Foundation supports an endowment for every educational department at the
college, along with many other endowments for scholarships, seminars,
campus facilities and more. The endowment pool has grown to almost $4.5
million in the last decade. The Foundation also sponsors the athletic
hall of fame banquet and induction ceremony held in February, the
business luncheon each spring, and the annual golf tournament held in
June. z
