Chamberlin passed along the request of the Alumni Council to seek reasons for the decline in alumni/ae participation in Dartmouth matters attendance at reunions and other gatherings, the Alumni Fund, support for the athletic teams and other undergraduate activities, etc., etc. I have sentjohn mv analysis of the causes of the decline and some recommendations to reverse it. How about many of you out there sending the council your views? Mailing address is: Dartmouth Alumni Council, Alumni Relations, 6068 Blunt Alumni Center, Hanover, NH 03755-3590.
Thank goodness for the World Cup, Wimbledon, and the golf tournaments in the United Kingdom and the United States reported on TV to counter the three-ring circus the media offer from Washington. I often have to remember that old northern New England proverb, "One can get a good night's sleep only when the legislature is not in session."
Sorry to report the death of Sherm Pedersen on June 6, 1998.
