Michael Macaione ’94 performs in Ruddigore
Hi, IWU Friends! Come see a wonderfully gorgeous production of Gilbert & Sullivan’s Ruddigore featuring Michael Macaione as Robin Oakapple in the Closing Cast performances, 4/5 (2pm), 4/9 (7:30pm), 4/11 & 12 (8pm). Celebrating our 90th season, this year’s proceeds will benefit QSAC (Quality Services for the Autism Community). And this is old-school operetta how it should be done with a 24-piece orchestra and not a microphone in sight! I hope to see you there!!!

He describes the subject of his lecture as: “‘See Different. Do Different.’ As creatives, we are built to see the world differently than most. It’s one of our unique, innovative traits. We all say we want to be a part of changing the world, but how do you actually accomplish this?”
Justin Ahrens ’94 will ride to help provide clean water in Uganda
In May/June 2014, Justin Ahrens of Rule29, a strategic creative company in the Chicagoland, will ride from the Atlantic Ocean to Lake Michigan (1,000 miles) in a two-week campaign, Wheels4Water. Wheels4Water is in collaboration with Lifewater, a nonprofit working towards solutions for the world’s water and sanitation crisis. In addition to raising $40,000 to provide an entire Ugandan community water for life, Ahrens will stop to ask for water and filter from natural water sources whenever possible. They hope to share their journey and the story of Africa’s water reality through a variety of media platforms and creative means.
