Eighty-three new members of the Quarter Century Club (QCC) were inducted at a March 29 Faculty Club luncheon. QCC president Anthony P. French gave a brief history of the QCC, and Vice President for Human Resources Laura Avakian was this year's guest speaker.
Of the 83 new QCC members, 27 are women. Sixty-nine inductees are from campus and 15 are from Lincoln Lab. Last year, there were 100 new inductees. According to the QCC database, there are now approximately 2,907 club members (2,364 men and 543 women).
Membership in the QCC (part of the Office of Special Community Services in Rm 50-005) is offered to faculty, administrative, research, support and service staff with 25 years of employment with the Institute. The club's primary purpose is to promote good fellowship among long-term associates of the MIT community.
The general membership of the QCC will have an opportunity to welcome new members at the annual summer picnic on June 12 in the Johnson Athletics Center from 4:30-7pm. (Traditionally held in August, the date for this year's picnic has been changed to June due to construction on the west side of campus.)
Other QCC events scheduled this year include the Silver Club High Tea for Ladies on October 16 at the Faculty Club from 2:30-4pm, and the QCC holiday gathering on December 11 in La Sala de Puerto Rico at the Stratton Student Center from 5-7pm.
