We advocate on behalf of the College&#8217;s education mission in the outside community and provide volunteer serves as needed and requested. We inform retirees of the benefits to which they are entitled by virtue of their current status (e.g. access to many on-campus events at no cost or reduced price, parking privileges, an ID card reflective of retirement, etc.) and most especially, of course, we encourage members to renew and deepen social ties.<\/p>\n<h3>How To Join<\/h3>\n<p>Joining the Association is easy and there is no cost. Simply provide your Ramapo College email to Assistant Vice President David Terdiman, <a href=\"dterdima@ramapo.edu\">dterdima@ramapo.edu<\/a>, our official liaison with the College, using the subject line, &#8220;Ramapo College Association of Retired Faculty and Staff.&#8221; David will then add newly provided information which the Association uses to contact members electronically regarding events and matters of interest or concern. If you do not have a Ramapo email address, you may request one through David and he will arrange it.<\/p>\n<h3>Executive Board Members<\/h3>\n<div class=\"row colSet\">\n\n<div class=\"sColumn col-sm-12 col-md-12 \">\n<ul>\n<li>Charles Carreras<\/li>\n<li>Pat Chang<\/li>\n<li>Bea Cronin<\/li>\n<li>Tom Heed<\/li>\n<li>Robby Saiff<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"sColumn col-sm-12 col-md-12 \">\n<ul>\n<li>Dorothy Echols Tobe<\/li>\n<li>Mark Howenstein<\/li>\n<li>Mitch Kahn<\/li>\n<li>Cliff Peterson<\/li>\n<li>Donna Singer<\/li>\n<li>Lori Yanowitz<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/retirees\/photo-archives\/\">Photos and Videos<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ramapo College of New Jersey Retiree Association (RCRA) The Ramapo College of New Jersey Retiree Association (RCRA)welcomes all former Ramapo College employees.
