For the third consecutive year, an alumnus of RIT's School of Hospitality and Service Management, Drew Nye, who is bar manager at Elixir, 938 South Clinton Ave., Rochester, donated a night's worth of tips—more than $300—to benefit RIT's “Puttin' on the RITz” dinner-dance. Nye, a 2004 RIT graduate, has donated more than $1,000 to the RITz dinner over three years.
