Faculty Women's Club honored Carol Block, our WOMAN OF DISTINCTION at the 3rd General Meeting and Scholarship Dinner. A lively conversation with Carol Block was moderated by FWC's President Anne-Marie Spataru (photo below). The event was well attended, and many of us were happy to meet old friends after the Los Angeles devastating fires of January 2025.
