DESCRIPTION:Andy Potash\, A&S '66\, has spent his working career in the ins
 urance industry. In 1995 he founded The Distinguished Programs Group\, an 
 insurance underwriting and distribution company that specializes in real e
 state and hospitality risks. In 2003 that business in turn spawned a new b
 usiness\, Resource Pro\, a remote staffing and process improvement company
  serving the insurance industry. Today the combined companies do $100MM in
  revenue with a 25% profit margin.\n\nHe and his wife\, Andrea\, have star
 ted a foundation to help find ways to create permanent jobs for people who
  need a second chance in life (the formerly incarcerated\, recovering addi
 cts\, and homeless people) and have come up with a novel way of providing 
 low cost capital for growth in exchange for a commitment to hire the kind 
 of folks they're trying to get employed (see www.washcyclelaundry.com as a
 n example).\n\nHave an informal conversation with an A&S alum. This is an 
 opportunity to learn about their career story and ask questions about them
 selves and their career field. This is a really valuable networking opport
 unity and a great way to learn about a career field or ask for advice on w
 orking in it.\n\nThe location information will be emailed to registered st
 udents a few days before the event.\n\nA&S undergraduates will be given fi
 rst priority at this event.\n\nPlease note our no-show policy as well as o
 ur tips for preparing for this meeting at http://as.cornell.edu/academics/
