NOTE: This event has been cancelled

The October 3rd Orange County Chapter luncheon for Loretta Sanchez at Chapman University has had to be canceled because of a conflict in Loretta's schedule. When we find another date to reschedule the event we will notify the Division and will post this on the web site. Any admission fees turned in for this event will be returned.

We are sorry for the cancellation and I look forward to awarding Loretta for her fine work on behalf of International Education in the future.
