Bob Weil in Montgomery, Ala.; Howard Reiss in Orange and Rockland counties, N.Y.; Beck Swanson in New Haven, Conn.; Andy Caffrey in the Merrimack Valley area of Massachusetts; and Digger Donahue on the South Shore area of Massachusetts.

The Alumni Council presented an Alumni Award to Mark Harty for his leadership, dedication and loyalty to the College. Mark, a serving co-vice president of our class, is a partner in the Boston law firm of Morrison, Mahoney & Miller. His high level of undergraduate activity in sports (tennis team captain), fraternity (secretary), Dragon and student government has been matched, if not eclipsed, by his work with the Alumni Council (a past president), the Alumni Fund, class leadership and as an overseer of Aquinas House and the president of Friends of Dartmouth Tennis. Mark and wife Sally met while they were working in the admissions office. The Hartys live in the Boston area.
