These are strange and difficult times for many of us. For those of us fortunate enough to still be working, there's a new complication: working from home for the first time. As the co-owner of a fully-remote content marketing and copywriting agency, I've been working from home for ten years. I'd love to offer my fellow Owls eight strategies that have helped me stay focused.
 

Marthe Druska Golden, who has served as assistant vice president for Alumni Relations and executive director of the Association of Rice Alumni (ARA) for five years, will be leaving her role at the end of the calendar year. The move comes after Golden’s husband, Bill, accepted a new career opportunity that will take the family back to Chicago, where they have deep family roots.

Dear Fellow Rice Owls,

As I hope you already know, this year we are celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Association of Rice Alumni (ARA). Since 1919, Rice alumni volunteers have worked to increase engagement between fellow alumni and the university, and over these past 100 years, have made a significant impact on Rice. What you may not know is that the first president of the ARA, Samuel G. McCann, was a graduate-only alumnus, who earned his degree from Rice in 1917.
