More than 35 years ago, Il Circolo, The Italian Cultural Society, donated $5,000 to Florida Atlantic University to kick-start an Italian program. Myriam Ruthenberg was hired to teach it. Since that time, Ruthenberg’s class evolved into a full-study curriculum recognized by the Italian government. The charity lauded the recently retired professor and gave her a clock as a gift (above). ‘The investment Il Circolo made has brought the richest of returns, taking pride knowing that our young students have benefited from our support,’ volunteer Sally Valenti said. ‘We salute Dr. Ruthenberg for skillfully and relentlessly making this possible and wish her a peaceful and enjoyable rest.’ Photo provided
