Emily German - Research Project
Gerry introduced Emily German - a student at Adrian College who is working on a project for her Accounting class and was with us today to learn more about our club and to ask a number of questions of the audience. She began her research, she said, on line while viewing various Rotary International sites but wanted to do a deeper dive so decided to prepare questions in advance she could ask us. 
 
Those questions were: Why did you join Rotary? How did you find out about Rotary? What would a typical meeting look like that you hold weekly? What specific projects stick out to members? Emily got some great answers and we encouraged her to sit down with specific club members to acquire more info for her project.
