The Philolexian Society (remember from our undergraduate days?) presented to Bob Butler at a fun-filled dinner held at the UTS Refectory its Alumni MMAP award (Ministering and Mentoring to the Aged Prize). Present were Ruth and Bill Lubic and Ashbel Green '50. Not to be outdone, the week following in Washington, D.C., AARP designated Bob as the man to keep watching for geopolitical issues of 'productive and successful aging.'
CCT names 'Ashbel Green '50' among those 'Present' at the Philolexian Society black-tie dinner at the UTS Refectory — attendance at a Society-only black-tie dinner is taken here as Society-affiliate evidence.
