My mailbox was full this month...thanks, guys! NoelAugustyn wrote to "correct the record" from an earlier column which claimed he, TOlll Okarma and Greg Marshall paid $100 each for a rented house in the their 1968 Stan- ford days...actual rent was $180 for the house in Menlo Park, or $60 each.. .andTomwas occasionally late paying his share.

After Stanford Noel spent nine years in Boston in legal education, and the last 16 years in Washington doing legal education, law practice and federal court administration, specifically as assistant director for the administrative office of the United States Courts. He works with public defenders, probation officers, interpreters, etc. While in Boston he met Ann Sweeney, a B.C. "double eagle"; they have three children: Matthew, 15, Monica, 12, and Catherine, 8. Ann works as an attorney for the Department of Energy. He noted the mixed pleasures of starting a family later than many of us: the excitement of watching Matthew making the game-winning catch on fourth and goal late in a football game (an event witnessed by Andy Hotaling), and noting that he and Ann won't be able to retire until 75 since Catherine is only in second grade.

Arnie Resnicoff wrote that he has been elected to the board of trustees of the Carnegie Council on Ethics and International Affairs. Based in Stuttgart, Germany, he serves as command chaplain for the U.S. European Command...covering 89 nations and 13 million square miles. He recently coordinated an international chaplains conference in Geneva, bringing together more than 100 chiefs of chaplains from as far as Korea, Norway and South Africa.

In The Boston Globe recently there was an exotic picture of Steve Spitz and wife Laurie, cochair of the seventh annual Casa Myrna Vazquez Carnival and fundraiser held at the New England Aquarium. Casa Myrna is New England's largest domestic violence organization helping battered women and their children.

The alumni office shared a couple of news clippings as well: Chris Williams became a managing director at Goldman Sachs...Dick Lappin is regional property manager for Chestnut Hill Realty's Rhode Island portfolio, of which he is a partner. He is active with the Providence Foundation and the Providence Chamber of Commerce. Jon Newcomb was recently appointed to the board of directors of NetLibraiy. In his spare time he serves as CEO of Simon and Schuster (since 1994) and on the boards of the Hong Kong Shanghai Bank Corp., Primark Corp., the National Book Foundation, the New School and a small college in Hanover, N.H. Let us all keep that small college in our thoughts! And take advantage of the class Web site and e-mail. Have a great summer.
