Among the Shining Stars Gala

Entertainment by CLU alumna Jacquelynne Fontaine '05, Miss California 2006. At home on both the operatic and concert stage, Fontaine was called "a soprano new to us, and all the more wondrous for that" by Alan Rich, reviewer for the NY and LA Times.

Keynote by James O'Toole, Daniels Distinguished Professor of Business Ethics at the University of Denver's Daniels College of Business. In 2007, O'Toole was called one of the "100 most influential people in business ethics" by the editors of Ethisphere and one of "the top 100 thought leaders on leadership" by Leadership Excellence magazine.

All proceeds from the Among the Shining Stars Gala will go toward endowing a Silver Anniversary Graduate Fellowship Fund for the Graduate School of Education and the School of Management.
