7:40 a.m., July 28, 2009----The summer edition of the University of Delaware Messenger magazine, featuring news from the campus-including research, athletics and a recap of Forum & Reunion Weekend festivities-and profiles of alumni, is available online at the newly redesigned Web site.

Among the highlights of the latest issue are the stories of a recent graduate in fashion and apparel studies who is focusing her work, not in Paris or New York but in southern Africa, where she has taught Zambian women sewing and pattern-making skills, and of two alumni who are gaining attention as the founders of a Web site for fans of fantasy baseball.

A new feature, written by 1992 graduate John Ratliff, gives his personal account of how a program he created and implemented in his business has dramatically reduced employee turnover while helping families in need or with special circumstances. This “first person” type of article is designed to appear regularly in the Messenger, allowing UD alumni to share their expertise with others.

The magazine is mailed four times a year to University alumni, friends and parents of current students.
