Alumni Association outgoing chair Al Trujillo, AE 81, spoke as Georgia Tech Foundation chair Mac Nease, IM 65, and President G. P. “Bud” Peterson stand by.

It was a night to remember at the Loews Hotel in Atlanta as the 64th annual Roll Call’s Leadership Circle donors gathered for the 2011 President’s Dinner.

Al Trujillo, a 1981 aerospace engineering graduate and outgoing chair of the Alumni Association Board of Trustees, cohosted the event with Lawton M. Nease III, IM 65, chair of the Georgia Tech Foundation. President G. P. “Bud” Peterson served as the host.

“We are thrilled that over 125 donors have become first-time members of Roll Call’s Leadership Circle this year,” Trujillo said. “You have made a substantial commitment to Georgia Tech and Roll Call, and we thank you for your generosity.”

There are now more than 2,000 Leadership Circle level donors who each have contributed at least $1,000.

The Georgia Tech alumni ensemble Style Points provided music during dinner. Later festivities included a performance from the Georgia Tech band, with Buzz serving as conductor, and a dessert reception with music from Joe Gransden.

Liberty Mutual served as a partner in the event. Swank Audio Visuals sponsored the evening’s audio and visual production.

Trujillo concluded his remarks with a toast: “Here’s to Georgia Tech, its president, its alumni, its faculty and staff, its students and supporters!”
