A series of serendipitous events led Larry Cervi (EDUC '58) to found the University of Pittsburgh’s Golden Girls in 1975.
“As a child, I broke my wrists in a fall. For therapy, I had to twist sticks, which eventually morphed into batons—which I eventually learned to twirl,” said Cervi in a 2022 interview with Pitt Magazine.
During her tenure as president of the Pitt Alumni Association (PAA), Valerie Njie spent much of her time and energy telling the Pitt story — highlighting to alumni, students and the broader community the best parts of the University.
Njie (EDUC ’71) remains an active member of the PAA, continuing to support and highlight the accomplishments of Pitt and its outstanding alumni. But in summer 2024, she turned her focus to telling her own story and, in doing so, became one of a handful of Pitt affiliates helping to launch a unique oral history project, “Voices of History.”
