The Alumni Association section of the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) Web site will become interactive this summer when its Online Directory goes live. Thanks in part to a $200,000 donation from Kwiat, Roisen, and Ferman, the upgraded directory will be searchable by region and will contain the names and contact information of GIA graduates and Alumni Association members who wish to participate.

In honor of their generous contribution, representatives from Kwiat, Roisen, and Ferman will be inducted into the 2003 League of Honor. All three companies have previously been honored at the annual event for their donations to GIA.
