Good news from the Lone Star State announces that Line Eldredge has been named managing partner of Ward Howell International, Inc., an executive search firm. Those of you were able to catch up with Line at our 20th Reunion know that Line and family live in Dallas. You may have also discovered at the reunion that another classmate, John Isaacson, of Isaacson, Ford, Webb & Miller, pursues a similar executive search career in the nonprofit sector. John is located in Boston.

Dan Graves continues to live and work in Richmond, Ind., where he is choral director, music history teacher, and convener of the music department at Earlham College. In addition to his classroom teaching and student advising responsibilities, Dan conducts the concert choir, chorale, madrigal singers, and Richmond Symphony Chorus; and, as if work at the college fails to keep him busy enough, he serves on the Indiana Choral Directors Association executive board and has recently completed a two-year term as panelist for the Indiana Arts Commission.

Let me know what music the rest of you have been making lately: anecdotes of classmate get-togethers, tales of happy surprises over the holidays, or just plain good snowblower stories. Health and happiness to all in the New Year!
