Club's most recent presidents feted at Long Gray Line luncheon

In recent years, 1978 Club President Frank Aukofer, had organized more recent luncheons, but the tradition was put on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tips for Journalists: How to access & customize the LexisNexis database
Research is the basic starting point for developing story ideas, gathering information, and fact-checking. Among the places to start is using LexisNexis — a database of legal, business, government, high-tech, and news articles.
