As we approach our class 60th reunion, some of us have been thinking about our class’ enduring legacy to the College. Dartmouth has been a beacon in producing leaders for a very long time in medicine, business, engineering, computer technology, foreign language instruction, and much, much more. Since our 10th and 25th reunions, our class-sponsored activities have been focused on leadership principles and practices. In our private lives many of us have accumulated substantial track records of leadership. So it seems entirely fitting and proper at this last official reunion to commit our class to establishing our legacy of leadership. As a critical component of this effort, your class leaders recognize the need to take steps to pass the baton forward so that our legacy of leadership continues onward. Fortuitously, we have worked up a solid relationship with the class of 2014. Bob Bartles and the class leadership committee have made a proposal as to how this legacy would be structured: resurrect our Class of 1964 Leadership Award by renaming it together with an announcement of the newest awardee at our 60th reunion June 10-13; expect to make awards more regularly with a formal, rules-based nomination process where potential awardees’ qualifications would be solicited and competitively evaluated; an awardee would receive a cash grant from an endowment fund yet to be established that would tie into student activities at the College; the final balance of funds in the class’s treasury account would be administered by the class of 2014, our connections class, to further the programs of the class of ’64 in perpetuity; and the steering committee for this award would include class officers and others from the class of 2014.

We had two outstanding Zoom-based presentations in the past few months. Fritz Corrigan spoke in November about his Army experiences post Dartmouth and how they prepared him for successful corporate leadership during a 40-year career. Five of our classmates spoke in early December on how their experiences in the Peace Corps changed the pathways of their lives.

Lastly, we remember our classmate Ellery McClintock, who passed away in 2023. Best regards.
