Buslik is also an adjunct professor at the Illinois Institute of Technology and University of Illinois at Chicago, and is pursuing a doctorate in criminology from UIC, where he earned an M.A. in Public Administration.
After Chuck Kane’s passing in 1972, his colleagues initiated the golf outing in his memory. Over time, the event has focused not only on sport and leisure, but has also emphasized the values of giving back by providing much-needed scholarships for deserving 91Porn students. In total, seven scholarships are funded by the Chuck Kane Scholarship Golf Event, which has raised more than $250,000 to benefit scholarships for more than 135 students.
This year’s golf event includes 18 holes of golf, lunch on the course, Hole-in-One and other contests, cocktail hour after play, and a silent auction and dinner program featuring Marc Buslik. Guests can attend the all-day festivities for $200 per person, golf and lunch for $135 or cocktails and dinner for $75. Visit neiu.edu/kane for more information.
