Ivy League Club
Sarasota and Manatee Counties
The Ivy League Club of Sarasota and Manatee Counties is an active group of alumni from all eight Ivy League schools who just happen to live in the beautiful Gulf Coast area of Florida.
Next Ivy League Club Event: February 19th Luncheon: Dr. Gene Kopelson will share his insights about 21st Century presidents, a subject affecting all of us. "Ike and Dutch: Mentor and Protege" is our February author book-talk. Historian Gene Kopelson MD's ground-breaking and critically-acclaimed Reagan's 1968 Dress Rehearsal: Ike, RFK, and Reagan's Emergence as a World Statesman tells the inspiring, never-before-told history of Reagan's first quest for the presidency in the late 1960s, how his hidden mentor on world affairs and domestic politics was Eisenhower, and how Reagan's main political foe in the 60s was Robert Kennedy. Kopelson's book-talk focuses on the never-before-known Reagan/Eisenhower relationship and features audio clips of Reagan in the 60s discussing world affairs (Vietnam, the Tea Offensive, the USS Pueblo, and much more).
Dr, Kopelson received his AB Cum Laude in Biochemistry from Princeton, his MD degree from Columbia, and completed his internship and residency at Harvard Medical School's Dept. of Radiation Oncology at Massachusetts General Hospital. For two decades he was director of a cancer center affiliated with the Yale School of Medicine.
