1958
Make plans now for the 30th reunion, June 15-17, 1987. Reasons to come to reunion are numerous. For example, it is a real thrill to meet a friend you haven't seen since June 1958. It happens every time you go to reunion. Also consider the pleasure to the sense of Hanover in early summer, a tangible reward for attendance. Next, think of those items on your personal agenda that you never attended to when-you were at Dartmouth. For example, take a leisurely walk around Occom Pond or jog on the track at the football field. Visit a professor who engaged your mind when you were an undergraduate. Reunions are similar to other gatherings. They are just what you make of them. You'll be glad you made the effort to come.
Dodd Wilson, a top scholar in our class, has been elected dean of the College of Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock. Dr. Wilson has a distinguished career in research and teaching in gastroenterology at the University of Minnesota Medical School. He is credited with a key role in the development of a Core Center in advanced liver disease at the university and also has been recognized for major research contributions in diagnostic endoscopy colon cancer and intestinal immunology. Dodd has authored over 50 research papers, primarily in gastrointestinal immunology, served as vice chairman of the University Department of Medicine and as head of the gastroenterology division at the medical school for 11 years. He is board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine and holds medical degrees from Dartmouth and
Harvard Medical Schools. As Dodd and Ginger move to Little Rock, the class wishes them success and happiness in this important new endeavor.
Pete Goodwin, Bill Glos says he hopes to see you at the reunion. Are you coming? Bill is a vice president of the Chase Manhattan Bank and lives in Mountvale, N.J.
Mort Fisher, Baltimore attorney, has been elected vice president of the American College of Real Estate Lawyers, a national organization which recognizes lawyers who have gained distinction in the practice of real estate law. Mort is a graduate of Yale Law School and serves on this organization's board of directors.
John Ryan advises that Fred Bagnell has purchased a publishing company in the Houston area.
When the National Basketball Association banned two players for drug use in July, the independent expert who reviewed the evidence was Harry Dodds. After service as deputy police commissioner of New York City and work as a major foundation executive, Harry has made many weighty decisions during his career. No one could ask for a fairer person to handle this delicate assignment. Harry holds a law degree from Yale.
In the "if the shoe fits" department, a recent survey reveals that persons with incomes from $10,000 to $15,000 are 10 times more likely to make charitable contributions than persons earning $50,000 to $l00,000. While this class obviously bucks that trend, if you are still holding out, 1987 is the time to begin being generous to Dartmouth.
The late Bill Prescott's son recently was married in Hanover. Both bride and groom are Dartmouth alumni. According to Phil Wood, classmate Dave Stiles is the president of Watervliet Paper Company in Watervliet, Mich.
Bowdoin College recently announced the promotion of John McKee to the rank of associate professor with tenure. John holds a master's degree from Princeton. He became the director of the Center for Resource Studies at Bowdoin, based in part on his photography of the Maine coastline. Subsequently he joined the Bowdoin faculty. Among other distinctions, his documentary won first prize at the San Francisco International Art Festival, he received the Maine State Award from the Commission on Arts & Humanities, and he has both published and exhibited extensively. Many will recall John with camera in hand recording the events in Hanover while we were undergraduates.
Jerry Green, president of J.I. Case Company, a Tenneco subsidiary, has been elected a director of First Wisconsin Corporation, Milwaukee.
Mount Zion Hospital in San Francisco has added Mel Croner to its board of directors. Mel holds a degree in industrial administration from Carnegie-Mellon and presently operates his own management consulting firm, The Croner Company.
