2008 President's Medal Gala:
Celebrating the Mind, Body and Spirit

The President's Medal Gala, which took place on May 1, 2008 at The Rainbow Room, honored Jana Klauer, M.D, a physician and best-selling author specializing in nutrition, exercise and weight management. NBC's Hoda Kotb, a co-anchor for the "Fourth Hour of Today" and a correspondent for "Dateline NBC," served as the mistress of ceremonies, while trustee Jim Buckman and Gerold Klauer served as gala co-chairs. President Judson R. Shaver presented Dr. Klauer with the President's Medal for her service to improving the health and well-being of others through medical weight loss, nutrition and exercise. The evening also featured a performance and presentation by MMC students.

The 2008 President's Medal Gala Benefit raised $325,000 for the College. Proceeds will go toward the creation of financial aid opportunities through scholarships an initiative of This is the Day, the campaign for Marymount Manhattan.
