Mary Beth Snyder - Spotlight on OU
2013 AUFD Spotlight on OU Questionnaire


Mary Beth Snyder
Co-Chair


If you were a spy what would your alias be?

Snidely Whiplash

What do you like best (or miss most) about your hometown?

A native of Royal Oak, I, unfortunately, missed out on the whole “cool city” thing because it was anything but cool in the 1950s and 60s when I lived there.

If you could be invisible for one day, what would you do?

Scuba dive in the Galapagos

What is your favorite part of your day?

Morning with a venti latte

Do you give to other charities beyond OU? Which ones and why?

I give to my three alma maters because they basically funded my entire education; I give to a nursing home in Cleveland because they took great care of my sister-in-law. I give to nearly every student fundraiser in the OC.

What or who inspires you to give to AUFD?

The students I see who benefit.
