Well now, who should be more qualified to write about "suspense and romance on the slopes" than our own Ann Hillman who, with a bit of help from Herb, operates the Golden Eagle ski resort in Stowe. Ann has written Snow Shadows, a novel with "danger and love, and majesty of Swiss scenery, and the exhilaration of downhill skiing at breakneck speed" not my words, those of the publisher, Fithian Press, P.O. Box 1525, Santa Barbara, CA 93102. This is Ann's second published mystery and an historical novel is forthcoming. In their spare time Herb and Ann are making plans to expand and improve the Golden Eagle. Herb definitely deserves another "thanks" for his fine efforts in publishing so many informative class newsletters over the past several years.

The National Endowment for the Humanities has announced the names of 245 university and college teachers and independent scholars who have received fellowships for the academic year 1989-90.

One of our most noteworthy class projects is the sponsoring of a student as an intern in Washington, D.C., under the program administered by The Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for the Social Sciences. Your annual contribution beyond the class dues is vital to the funding of this project. John W. MacKay '88, a government major, was the class intern for the summer term. He has been working in the Juvenile Section of the Office of the Corporation Counsel, as- sisting D.C. attorneys in the prosecution of criminal cases. John writes about the process of following a case from arrest through prosecution to final court decision and the complexities involved in administering the law with an even hand while facing the realities of today's social challenges.

John is one example of the many, many outstanding students at the College today. Although he matriculated with the class of 1988, he will graduate in 1990. He took a break in his studies from March 1986 to March 1988 to serve a two-year, Spanish- speaking mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Colombia, South America. In addition to being a very food student, John is a star varsity basketall player, having received a number of awards for his skill and dedication to his sport. He has been a starting guard during his three winters in Hanover and was cocaptain of the team in 1985-86. This year John was named a third team GTE Academic All-American and was awarded the John W. Bates 1910 Scholarship for "demonstrated athletic, personal, and academic promise." He was a co-organizer of "Mormons at Dartmouth" in 1984 and is a member of the "Fellowship of Christian Athletes." It is a privilege for the class to assist students like John and the ten previous interns whom we have sponsored.
