Incoming president Mike Geltrude (Nutley) spoke on leadership; vice president Alex Garber (Short Hills) on character; secretary Joseph Walter (Bayonne) on service; and treasurer Ryan Ulrich (North Arlington) on scholarship.  The chapter’s Moderators are Sr. Frances Marie Duncan, OSF of the Science Department and Michael Settembrino, ’01 of the Mathematics Department.
