2000

Our classmates have been busy this fall! There is so much news to report this month that we've included more and complete updates in the class newsletter. Please check it out for more class news!

Melanie Ann Taylor is settling into her new home outside Philadelphia, where she'll be a iL at Villanova Law School. Linda Aucoin was engaged to Chris Green (UVALaw '03) in July and is planning a March 2004 wedding in Atlanta. Also Amanda Venti and Brian McLain were engaged over the summer on the beach near Brians home in California. Both are living in Chicago; Amanda is in her third year of medical school at Loyola and Brian is working in venture capital.

Evette Robinson is attending the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory. "I plan to complete a masters in public health degree in 11 months (it's normally an 18-month program) with a concentration in health management. I had the pleasure of seeing a few Dartmouth folks over the summer including Monika Seiber in N.Y.C., Ivana Chow while on vacation in the S.F. Bay area and Megan Jennings in the greater San Diego area."

Lauren Taggart writes that there is great Dartmouth representation at Johns Hopkins! Heather Parsons, Erin Chiyoko Fuse '99 and Lauren are all in the master of public health program. "We just started our program in July and now we're train buddies...we commute from D.C. to Baltimore together. Melissa Camp has been here for a while—she's a fourth-year med student—and Stacy Sanders is doing a two-year fellowship in health administration at the hospital. Who knew Baltimore was such a Dartmouth destination?!"

One Saturday night found Ryan Moody, Kristin Broms '03, Sue Kloek '03 and Hans "Peach" Hanson in the karaoke bar of a Seattle bowling alley. The crowd was speechless after a heartfelt rendition of "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Broms, Kloek and Moody. "I really feel the audience connected with what we were trying to achieve with our performance," said Sue, as children continued to weep in the background. Not to be outdone, Hans made his karaoke debut, alongside roommate Kevin Bauer, acting out his favorite song, "I'm Too Sexy." Stunning, in every sense of the word.

It's been a season of weddings! Congrats to all! In July Lea Goryn and Issac Gherson wed in Lima, Peru. Many alums flew in for the celebration where a 17-piece band and Brazilian party favors that kept guests dancing until 5 a.m. In September fellow tripees Christina Dam and Ryan Jones were married by Occom Pond amongst many friends. The couple was serenaded on the Green by many '07s who were gathered for their freshman trips. Undoubtedly, the event had many of them looking around to determine who could be their future spouse! Sarah Hess and Dave Morland were married this fall in Charlottesville, Virginia, with many friends and family in attendance.

Also, Carrie Dunsmore and Jonathan Flynn were married in September at the AQ Chapel. Tons of Dartmouth folk were there to celebrate the big day. Also, many alumni celebrated Sarah Dray's marriage to Steven Yates Mondy, a Navy pilot at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. October brought the wedding of Caroline Hribar and Jack Hossenlopp in the Hamptons. Those in attendance agreed that the whole event was absolutely beautiful and went by much too quickly. Also, Taco Toyohara and Jenny Piatt were wed in Hanover this fall.ltwas another fantastic Dartmouth alum-filled event that was celebrated in style. Congratulations to all the happy couples!
