Class Note 1935
Mar - Apr 2014
Irv Sager, Ed Reich and I feel that life is wonderful, each day seems better than the one before and tomorrow will be even better.
Wonderful ’86s Maybelle and John Hueston hosted a terrific Dartmouth get-together at their home. Two groups of Dartmouth students, half male and half female, serenaded us with their superlative renditions of College songs. It was a breathtaking performance taking us back to our undergraduate years. I had the privilege of having conversations with some of the students, and their intelligence and charisma just shone through. For me it was an emotional journey. I came away with the feeling that a future in the hands of many bright and caring young people, all over the world, will be secure.
As for us, a rock-solid foundation was bequeathed to us by our forefathers. We are allowing it to be chipped away bit by bit. Let us have a new constitutional convention restoring our rights and freedom. I can’t believe that we are allowing our children to be yoked with student loans that become more and more of a burden. Vox clamantis in deserto: Let Dartmouth take the helm and lead the way. If we stand by and let the country continue along this path, we are the guilty ones.
The class of ’35 marches on!
