Connections 2006—Saturday, February 25

Chairs Susan O'Connor Davis and Allison Davis, '56
Honorary Chairs Barack Obama and Michelle Obama

Connections was spectacular! More than just a fund-raiser, Connections brought parents, faculty, staff, and friends together at a great party to celebrate while supporting our school at the same time. Held in the Winter Garden of the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business on Saturday, February 25, Connections 06 raised over a quarter of a million dollars for the creation of a new digital language lab at the Schools. Check out a slide show of scenes from an unforgettable evening.

The new lab will give All Lab students access to the cutting edge of educational technology to better prepare for their roles in the ever-expanding global marketplace. At Lab, foreign language instruction begins in the third grade and continues throughout students' educational experience. This new lab will benefit our children and impact tomorrow's society in higher education, in business, in government.

There are so many people to thank for their role in the success of Connections 06:
