1951

Many of us have certain priorities we would like to see Dartmouth pursue, and Buck Scott has moved to give his favored cause a big push.

Buck has established the Scott International Scholarship Fund to provide scholarship aid for non-United States nationals at Dartmouth. He writes, "During the late forties, the College reached out to a group of young men who had survived the horrors of the European wars, and brought them to Hanover to complete their higher education. I was associated with this project, and learned firsthand the value of having nonAmericans as valued members of the undergraduate body.... In order to reach its full potential as an educational institution with worldwide reach, I believe the College should encourage the matriculation of non-Americans." Contributions to the fund should be addressed to Director of Development, Dartmouth College.

Mike Monroney of Alexandria, Va., drops a note to say, "Since retiring for the second time early last year (1995), I have been working as a volunteer for the Concord Coalition, a non-partisan, grassroots organization dedicated to educating Americans about the federal deficit."

"After serving several months as chairman of the Northern Virginia chapter," Mike continues, "I became state coordinator. While on a trip to Charlottesville, I found that a member of our chapter there is one of our '51 classmates, WillardRowe."

While attending the American Bankers Association convention in Honolulu last fall, Jim and Joan Culberson took time out for a reunion with Hawaiians Dick andFumiko Holloran. Joan sent a neat snapshot of the two guys, but Jim, not Dick, is the one in the loud flowered shirt. Jim is longtime chairman of First National Bank & Trust of Asheboro, N.C., and has just finished a whirlwind year as president of the A.B.A. Commented the American Banker, "A lot of people think Jim Culberson is the best president the American Bankers Association has had in years."

Woody Klein and I worked together on The Dartmouth and shared a great year as fellow students at the Columbia School of Journalism after Hanover. I've been joyously retired for sometime now, but it doesn't look like they're ever going to get Woody out of journalism. He worked at the Washington Post and New York World Telegram & Sun, and was at IBM for 24 years and edited their Think magazine. Now he's settled down at the Westport News in Westport, Conn., where he also lives. He is editorial page editor there, but recently put his old reporter's shoes back on and did a nice story on a reading in Westport by his friend and classmate—and our class's distinguished poet—Robert Pack, who has graced the campus at Middlebury College since 1963.
