1976

I'm sure we were all saddened to hear of President Kemeny's very untimely death. He made a tremendous contribution to the College, but his legacy is perhaps most personally felt by those of us in the pioneering class of '76, the first a president could welcome with the words, "Men and women of Dartmouth . . On be- half of the class, we send our gratitude to his family for sharing him with us, and our condolences, especially to classmate Jennifer.

Congratulations to Ann Fritz Hackett, whose service to Dartmouth was recognized at the fall Alumni Council meeting with the prestigious Young Alumni Distinguished Service Award. Ann, who lives in Arlington, Va., recently retired after serving ten years on the Board of Trustees. She was, of course, the first alumna to serve on the Board. Seventy- sixers in the crowd who helped salute Ann included Bill Kobokovitch (who, by the way, owes me news... Bill, you promised!), BillSchillhammer, Judy Burrows-Csatari,Martha Hennessey, and yours truly.

I received a very nice note from King andHope Stevens Poor, who live in Winnetka, I11., and report that 1992 was clearly the Year of the Woman for their family. They had a very legitimate medical excuse for missing our reunion: Hope gave birth to their fourth daughter, Eliza, onjune 22. King writes, "With our dog, we now have a six-to-one female/ male ratio in our house. As a result, I have gained a greater appreciation for what the women of our class experienced in the early years of co-education." Yes!

David Fisher was in touch with me back in November, looking for assistance in identifying fellow classmates living in the metropolitan New York area. David is a financial and investment consultant with Merrill Lynch, and he invites '76ers in the area (or anywhere!) to contact him. He can be reached at (212) 415- 7852 or (800) 999-6371. David and his wife, Pearl Beck (a social researcher at Rutgers), live on the Upper West Side of Manhattan with their sons Ariel 5 and Jonah 3-1/2.

David also sent news of Alfred Stanley, with whom he is in close contact. Alfred is a consultant in Austin, Tex., where he has lived for 16 years. He and wife Kathy Guido, who received her Ph.D. from Dartmouth in '78, have two children, Kevin and Rachel. Alfred asked if anyone knew the whereabouts of Corey Bock. Unless someone knows other- wise, my alumni list says he is a publisher living in Paris (1 Rue Cortot). Hope that helps.

Carl Little was recendy named director of public affairs for the College of the Atlantic in Bar Harbor, Maine. Carl moved to Maine in 1988 and was editor-in-chief of Windswept House Publishers in Somesville. Prior to that he was an associate editor of Art in America magazine in New York City. Carl is also a freelance writer, an art critic, and the author of two books, 3000 Dreams Explained, a collection of poems, and Paintings of Maine. He lives in Somesville, with his wife, Peggy, and children Emily and James.

Interesting news of another prominent journalist among our ranks: David Shribman was recently named Washington bureau chief and assistant managing editor for the Boston Globe. Exciting time to be in Washington! Dave has had a very successful career as a journalist, having worked for The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Star, and Buffalo Evening News. Not bad for a kid who started his career delivering the Globe! Dave lives with his wife, Cindy Skrzycki, a business reporter for the Globe, and two daughters in Washington.
