1970

I am happy to report a continuing flow of good news this month. On the Hanover scene, our classmate Skip Sturman has been named the College's associate director of employment services. Skip will be responsible for giving advice on all aspects of student employment at Dartmouth. This includes campus jobs, jobs during terms off, and internships, as well as post-graduate employment. He will be responsible for coordinating visits of some 110 potential employers who will be conducting 2,500 interviews with seniors this year. Skip, along with James Tonkovich '68, the assistant secretary of the College, will also be handling the alumni job-development and career-advisory network. Under this program, alumni are able to talk with undergraduates about career choices. After graduating from Dartmouth, Skip attended the Journalism School at Syracuse University and later received an M.S. degree from Indiana University in education. He then served as an editor and reporter for the Genesee Valley Newspapers in Rochester, N.Y. This was followed by a three-year stint at the University of Rochester as a career and academic counselor. Most recently, he has been at Dartmouth as associate director for career development. Skip's friends will find him in Thetford Hill, Vt.

From Philadelphia comes the news that Dr. Robert A. Moss has been elected to fellowship in the prestigious American College of Physicians. By the time this column appears in print, Bob will have been honored by the organization's annual session in Kansas City. The American College of Physicians represents doctors of internal medicine and related specialties, seeking to upgrade the quality of medical care, education, and research through rigorous membership requirements and programs of continuing education. After Dartmouth, Bob graduated from Tufts University School of Medicine. He has been a resident of Laguna Niguel for one year and is currently on the staff of the Fountain Valley Community Hospital, Huntington Inter-Community Hospital, and Harbor U.C.L.A. Medical Center. In addition to this, he is also an assistant clinical professor of medicine at U.C.L.A. He specializes in hematology and medical oncology. Election to fellowship in the American College of Physicians signifies attainment of a special level of medical scholarship and achievement in internal medicine.

David Deese and a colleague, Professor Joseph Nye, have edited Energy and Security, a report of a Harvard University research project. The report faults past U.S. energy policy, warning that not enough attention has been given to U.S. energy independence. The report urges greater use of coal to help wean us from our dependence upon foreign oil. From what I could read of the reviews of the report, it apparently makes fascinating and alarming reading' The report took 18 months of study and is some 489 pages long.

One of the greatest pleasures of being class secretary is receiving a note from one of our classmates reporting on his current activities. Charlie Johnson responded to my last call for news and wrote to let me know that all is well in Barnstable, Mass., which is Charlie's home area. After graduating from Harvard Law in 1974, he took a position with the Public Defenders Office, Massachusetts Defenders Committee. Over the years he gained considerable, valuable experience in criminal law and tried hundreds of cases ranging from shoplifting to armed robbery to murder in the Boston-Cambridge area. Presently he is assigned to the Public Defenders Office in Barnstable County on Cape Cod. Charlie has indicated that he is looking forward to our tenth reunion as the chance to regain some of the. "Big Green spirit" and meet with old friends he misses very much.

I hope that all of you by now have received an outline of scheduled events in connection with the reunion and that you are making your plans to attend. It should really be great.
