1975

Four months and counting until we reune in June. A gentle reminder—this secretary is taking nominations for class officers to serve for the next five years. The elected offices are president, secretary (it's a wonderful job), treasurer, and Alumni Council representative. The president appoints newsletter editor, reunion chairman, reunion giving chairman, mini-reunion chairman, etc. If you know anyone who would be ready, willing, and able to serve in either an elected or appointed position (including yourself), please let me know ASAP. Ask not what your class can do for you, ask what you can do for your class! Jim Bildner informs me that we will be entertained by Livingston Taylor in a joint (no, not that kind of joint) concert on Saturday night in Spaulding with the other reuning classes, '73 and '74.

Thanks to Treas. Jeff Sassorossi for forwarding the following notes included in dues payments. Jim Reynolds's family reports that he "loves his job at Western Carolina University, particularly the big dinosaur course he is teaching this fall" ("I love you, you love me, we're a happy family Susan HenselGorsky, mother of two, is a senior policy analyst working on international transportation and trade issues. She writes that "by the time this makes it to print, I fear that NAFTA will have been defeated, which is a shame because in spite of Ross Perot, it is a good agreement." I'm sure that she is pleased that, largely because of Ross Perot, it passed.

Claude Saucier writes that he has left the world of show business for the more mundane but financially predictable world of copy writing, And if the talent with a word- processer which he displayed in his recent letter is any indication, he will be a great success. Claude, thanks for your kind letter. Here in the Bay Area, Michael Hutton has been elected chairman of the board of directors of the California Child Youth and Family coalition, an organization comprising 200 agencies and individuals committed to creating a positive environment for children, youth, and families in California. Michael is in the process of completing a doctoral degree in clinical psychology.

Bob Beck writes, "saw my name as an MIA in the October '93 issue of DAM, which is a bit surprising given that I have been keeping Jeff Sassorossi up to date on my where- abouts. [Other MIAs take note: if you haven't written to me, you're an MIA.] Sharon and I are in Houston, where I am vice president for information technology and professor of pathology at Baylor College of Medicine. We celebrated anniversary 18, and our eldest is a junior in high school this year—looking at colleges (gulp!). Stefan is in eighth grade, Meredith in second. I'm working on information integration in health care, occasionally consulting with roommate Don Drakeman's company, Medarex."

There are only a few more months in this secretary's tenure left for the following MIAs (and all who have gone before) to respond to The Call:
