    LOS ANGELES--An afternoon luncheon fundraiser for displaced Syrian
    Armenian students at Haigazian University became a reunion of sorts
    with alumni, philanthropists, clergy, government officials, and
    friends. They had one goal-- to raise much needed scholarship funds for
    the displaced Syrian Armenian students studying at Haigazian. Their
    goal was realized. All attending were painfully aware of the need-- and
    were generous. A current, informative report was given by Dr. Ani
    Darakjian, Chairwoman of the Haigazian University Board of Trustees. A
    video chat of these students with University President Paul Haydostian
    was viewed.

    Joyce Naltchayan Boghosian, daughter of the late White House
    Photographer Harry Nalchayan, was the event's highlight. Her
    presentation of photos gave an exclusive glimpse into her world of the
    privilege and pressures as a White House photographer. She shared how
    each president, in his own way, treated her warmly and with respect as
    she entered his personal life. Joyce Boghosian's calm demeanor belies
    the pressures that were present in her White House position. With only
    seconds to shoot an historic photo, implement proper protocol in a
    foreign setting, or traveling on Air Force One--all are evidence of her
    expertise and professionalism.

    The Haigazian Alumni Association and the Women's Auxiliary appreciated
    the guests who spent a beautiful Sunday afternoon on June 22 at the
    Lakeside Golf Club in Toluca Lake, providing support for grateful
    students in Beirut.
