‘Invest In Others’: MC graduates urged to participate in nonprofits

‘Invest In Others’: MC graduates urged to participate in nonprofits: "It is time to invest in others.

That was the message to members of Maryville College’s Class of 2008 from American Humanics President Dr. Kala Stroup, who gave the commencement address Sunday and was awarded an honorary degree from the college.

In her address, entitled “Ethical Leadership: Grounded in Philanthropy,” Stroup told graduates that along with their academic degrees and leadership experience came “an obligation — a duty — to be philanthropic and to encourage others to do so."
