Salve Regina president joins Beacon board

Beacon Mutual Insurance Co.'s newest board member is Sister Therese Antone, a Catholic nun who serves as the president of Salve Regina University.

Governor Carcieri today named Antone to the board of directors of the embattled workers' compensation insurer, saying she would bring experience and ethics to the board.

"As someone who has devoted her life to serving her community as a Catholic nun, Sister Therese's ethics are above question," Carcieri said in a statement.

Antone will replace former board member John Holmes, who resigned from the board last week amid mounting pressure from Carcieri, who had called for a shakeup of company leadership.
