1990

Our whole class owes a great deal to Laurilyn Goettsch this month, as she sent the only substantive letter to arrive in time for inclusion in this column. If Laurilyn hadn't written, you are reading what would have been my concluding sentence.

But she did write. And she wrote: Kris KellyKaras has become the first member of our class to be a mother of three! Kris gave birth to twin boys, David Christopher and Matthew Stephen on September 6. The twins, husband Steve, and two-year-old Katherine recently purchased their first home in Durham, N.C.

Jamie Lui and Kenny May, living in Hawaii, were visited by Laurilyn last summer. Jamie is working for a one-man consulting company and looking toward possible graduate school plans for next fall. Kenny returned from Japan after teaching English for two years. He began his first year in law school at the University of Hawaii this fall.

Roger Freeman left Bain in Boston some months ago and is now working for another firm here in New York.

Caroline Choi is working for her congressman from North Carolina in his D.C. office.

Susan Moussa recently got her master's from Johns Hopkins and began med school in Arizona this fall.

Laurilyn is keeping busy as a law student and a note-and-comment editor for the Iowa Law Review. She will be working for a Kansas City firm after graduation.

People I've randomly ran into: first, ChrisBonomo, on the Third Avenue bus heading home from work. He left his job at Merrill Lynch and is now working, for a money management firm in New York. Also on Third Ave. (at a different place and time) was JeffWolf, who is at NYU Med School. His lab partner there is Renee Fried.

And now for the ever-popular marriage and engagements section: Kelin Pickard and StigColberg are still in D.C. and are engaged to be married. Alike Kanarick and Liz Kleinberg were recently engaged. Mike's still at Fordham Law and Liz is pursuing a master's in international affairs at Columbia here in New York.

Bruce Sacerdote wrote in with JohnBecker from Boston to say that this column should be more focused on Sigma Nu alumni. (For those of you who are unfamiliar with Bruce's sense of humor, he was joking—well, sort of). Unfortunately, Bruce furnished me with no news whatsoever about any alumni, not even himself. He did suggest I make up some news—something I contemplated as a result of the dearth of mail during the past couple months.

Which brings me to the concluding portion of this column. I gladly give all of you some of my time each month when I put this column together. I hope you'll return the favor by writing about what you and your '9O friends from Dartmouth are doing now. As I mentioned earlier, I have received very little mail lately, and I can't keep doing this without your help.

Finally, I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah. Wherever you may be this month, whatever you may be doing, take a minute to remember those late winter-term nights, when, following a big tooling session in the library, you walked across campus towards the warmth of your dorm room, looked up at the crystal-clear, star-filled sky, and felt that special love of place that is uniquely Dartmouth.

May the warmth of the Dartmouth Family be with you this season, and throughout the coming year.
