One year into the job, University of Nebraska President Walter “Ted” Carter, Jr. will address us on Wednesday, December 16th.
Previously under his leadership, the Naval Academy’s Class of 2019 achieved a record-high graduation rate of 90% and the academy was ranked the nation’s No. 1 public university by Forbes Magazine. As a naval flight officer, Carter completed 2,016 carrier-arrested landings, an American record. He also commanded a Carrier Strike Group, which included 20 ships, two nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and two carrier air wings that were deployed to Afghanistan in the Arabian Gulf. He certainly seems to be the right leader at the right time for a university whose operations span 500 miles.
Our final meeting of the year is sure to be visionary and informative.
Our holiday break this year will run from December 17th to January 17th. During this period, our Service Above Self and Outland Trophy events continue as normal. Please see the Whirl for details. The Whirl will publish December 18th and resume January 18th. We will also hold a January 8th board meeting, and then resume normal club meetings on January 20th as we welcome Methodist Hospital CEO Josie Abboud to Rotary. We are continuing to meet virtually only (ZOOM) until we can safely resume hybrid meeting operations – both of which require an extraordinary effort by our Digital Experience Team of Sean Olson and Adam Leong, who have the gratitude of all. Thank you, gentlemen!
Please bring a guest as we welcome President Carter this Wednesday! (Let Leigh know who is coming…)

Lindy Hoyer has been in touch with the Salvation Army in regards to their winter watch food distribution program. She has signed our club up to serve on 4 nights beginning in December through February. Each shift will require up to 3 club members to sign up, two will be serving food and one will be the jump (person who organizes crowd outside and hands out clothing). At this time no drivers are needed. The shifts start at 5:45 p.m. at the SA Western Divisional Headquarters, 10755 Burt Street. If new to volunteering for SA, need to arrive a bit early to fill out paperwork. The shifts each night are from 5:45-8 p.m. Volunteers must bring and wear a mask, wear warm clothes.
