Dear Dr. Iadarola,
Since I have attended and graduated Cabrini
College (Class of 1994) I have seen and witnessed many changes at the school, both good and bad. However, for the
most part, they have been good – UNTIL NOW.
When I was elected to the Alumni Board of
Directors last year I was looking forward to being able to give back
and make a difference at Cabrini. Now, after what you have done
regarding John Dzik, I will be sure family, friends, colleagues and those who
inquire are aware of what Cabrini College has become.
I find it to be a total disgrace that you
would treat someone who has been such an important piece in the
development of so many individuals, both athletes and non-athletes
alike. For years, John Dzik has been responsible for the growth
& development of Cabrini College, athletics and the student
population. It is because of him and only him that I attended
Cabrini College. I look back on it as a great time of my life and I
am thankful for the coaching, leadership and friendship that I have
received from him. I am proud to say that he is not only
one of my mentors, but more importantly a friend.
I think that you and the entire Development
Office TREMENDOUSLY underestimated the Alumni and what your decision
has done to the overall public perception of Cabrini College. As a
previous member of the Board (resigned immediately after learning
about this issue) I was asked on numerous occasions to assist in the
schools development. I have decided that I will no longer give money
or my time of day to anyone at the school that had a part
in this decision…for that matter the school period
.
Knowing what has happened, I am almost ashamed to tell
me people that I am a Cabrini College graduate.
Sincerely,
David L. Kerchner
Class of 1994
Member, Alumni Board of Directors (Resigned)
