Our fifth Reunion is right around the corner, and reunion planning is picking up speed. If you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to contact our hardworking Reunion chair, Wendy Gruenberg, at .
This column's theme is "out-of-date news." (I know, how unusual.) In June Allegra Kochman graduated from Columbia with a master's in architecture. She won a fellowship for her proposal to study the "socially, politically, and religiously sculpted fabric of Baroque Rome," and received an award for design excellence (she designed a suburban duplex).
In April Ric Murawczyk wrote to say that his friends are too apathetic to write, so he thought he'd do them a favor by getting their names into print. Ric wrote: "JanPfeiffer is in Japan teaching English and mastering Aikido from a Japanese sensei. He plans on coming back to the USA this summer. What's next? L.A., where he'll try to get his screenplay into action, or some room somewhere, where he'll write books or something. Has Ragab just got back from Japan where he was teaching English and studying Aikido. He's currently working on a book, which he was too shy to share. Now he's in Atlanta looking for work in San Francisco or Boston and putting the finishing touches on his book.
Yoo Jin Kim is at Bain Venture Capital and plans to go to Harvard Business School next year. Brett Queener is at HBS, after spending a few years in Silicon Valley. Charles Knight is studying medicine at Columbia Med. He's as good and crazy as he ever was. After buying all the books at Barnes & Noble for his "Canon," (I'm serious), he went forth to purchase an extensive CD collection. If you see him in NYC, don't touch the Canon. GeoffWatson is living with his girlfriend Chechile '93 (I can't spell her last name) and studying at Wharton. He will work for Sprint this summer in Kansas City in some special summer training program, but hasn't made up his mind about his career yet. Justin Firestone is with Citibank developing their new Web site in NYC. He did a great multimedia CD on Frank Lloyd Wright and was quoted in The New York Times some time ago. He said something brilliant, like, "When you get down to it, things virtual are unfalfilling." Then the author of the article wrote, "Justin plans to go back to graduate school in archaeology." Andy Han works for Andersen Consulting in Boston/Hartford, doing something with digital document storage. He's got a girlfriend, a bike, and a new Subaru. I am in Denver, working for a commercial real estate development company and deciding between real estate, business school, Denver, and the world. On the side, I renovated a small apartment building and my U.G.A. (Cathy Nabbefeld '90) lives in the apartment beneath me. I'm her landlord, a twist of fate which we both laugh at. Cathy's sister, Susan Nabbefeld, attends Cornell M.B.A. program and will be marketing for Bay Networks this summer. If you're in Denver, let me know."
