Michael Gorman ’10 Invests in BloNo Community
“…If only one side gave any input into every topic, then we would not be where we are as a community. Give an example of what you would like to see instead, rather than just saying ‘no.'”
-Michael Gorman “Millennial’s Interest in Govt. Spurs Participation.” N.p., n.d. Web. 11 Apr. 2016.
Michael Gorman has the mentality of a strong-minded millennial who wants his rational voice heard. As your class blog editor, I find the above quote completely relevant when I face personal obstacles, be them small or large. When Michael learned about opposition from leaders about bike lines lining along Bloomington’s Main St., he aimed to encourage others to speak their mind instead of shooting down ideas.
Way to go, Michael! Your participation in the community is inspirational to us all!

Sean Dwyer ’10 Prospect Heights Water Committee
Sean Dwyer ’10, a certified financial planner, was appointed to the Prospect Heights Water Committee.
Sean says “I’ve been wanting to get involved with the community and there was an opportunity to get on the advisory board here. The water topic is a big one here in my town as some homes are on well while others are hooked to the city lines. I am intrigued by the topic and love giving back!”
Congratulations, Sean!
What a great way to get involved in the community!
