During March Jim Sullivan hosted a dinner meeting of Reunion fundraisers (The usual suspects will remain nameless) at his N.Y.C. office of Hambrecht & Quist, a San Francisco-based securities firm. Jack Gault from Darien, Conn., joined the group, as did Steve Quigley, who came in from publisher John Wiley & Sons' regional office in Marblehead, Mass., to assist in the holy quest of "big green" for The Big Green. Steve Kessner, our class mandarin of money matters, assisted Jeff Sassarossi '75, deputy director of the Alumni Fund, and Elizabeth Spenser from the fund's capital gifts section, who traveled from Hanover for the meeting.
