1990

And now for something completely identical ... to what I'm supposed to do in every issue: more '90 news! Via the Vatican Post Office comes Jeanhee Kim, who writes that during her internship with the Associated Press in Rome, Italy, she was sent to the Rome airport to interview exhostages from Iraq and Kuwait. She also spent Christmas eve at the Vatican to hear the Pope's mass.

Chris Schnader writes he is teaching German and music at the Falmouth Academy, Falmouth, Mass. He is advisor to the outing club there—a post that allows him to schedule trips to Dartmouth, such as the one he led in November which included an overnight stay in Harris Cabin.

John Neville is working as a yacht steward on a 125-foot Feadship that cruises the Virgin Islands. He wrote that Anthony Morris, living in New York, wants to produce a Broadway musical. John Perkins is teaching English in Japan. Patrick Nutor is training in Angola for a European multinational company. Ben Kwakye is at Harvard Law. Sanjiv Kapoor is working for a computer company in San Francisco. Peter Zimm is working as a supervisor at the Hopkins Center Cafe, and is rooming with John Martin on West Wheelock.

Eating lower on the food chain is Meg Sommerfeld, who reports that as the coordinator of afterschool programs at the Community Children's Ministry Center in northwest Washington, D.C., she eats a "mostly" vegetarian diet. Meg's with the Lutheran Volunteer Corps. She lives near the center and works with 16 third to sixth graders, primarily from low-income families. She and her co-workers help the kids with their homework in addition to taking them on field trips.

Meg wrote that Sara Page works three blocks away from her at National Geographic. Steph Baldanzi is a paralegal with Swidler & Berlin. Sharon Doodian is a 1L at Georgetown, and lives with Steph in Arlington, Va.

The only person I've ever heard of in the business of "social venture consulting," Christine Perry, says her biggest challenge thus far is explaining exactly what it is she does. She says her company, Capital Missions, solves social problems while paying attention to both the profitability and social impact of their decisions. Ben & Jerry's and Patagonia are two examples of this philosophy. She writes that Cathy Campaigne was transferred to San Francisco for six months after only two weeks on the job at a Washington, D.C., consulting firm.

Married on Dec. 15 were Mary Anderson and Richard Beaver, who went to the Caymans for their honeymoon and got some "savage" tans. Mary hopes to start med school in the fall, and Richard is teaching fourth graders in Houston, Tex. Groomsmen included Mike Brandt (working at a bar in New Haven, Conn.), Steffen Nelson (working for a shipping company in Seattle, Wash.), and Tony Jones (studying for his Masters of Divinity at Fuller Seminary in Calif.). '90 bridesmaids were Kendall Genre (psychiatry intern at a hospital in New Orleans), Wendy Silverstein (working for a financial planning company in N.Y.C.), and Esther Wirth (in Albuquerque, N.M., looking for an elementary teaching position).

Andy Williams is working as a Kiewit consultant and living in Lebanon. His favorite pasttimes include keeping his girlfriend (a '93) from getting any studying done and attending live jazz every Thursday night in White River Junction with friends. He wrote that Tom Nanney is teaching music in Arizona and plans to go to grad school. JonChipman is working for a company in Lyme, N.H., that does geographical computer analysis.
