Class Note 1938
Issue
Sept - Oct 2019
The beginning of another fall in Hanover and the kingdom known as Dartmouth College. The class of 2023 is about to start on their incredible journey lasting four years—how wonderful for them. Let’s hope they enjoy every moment of it.
I received a note from Carrie Baughman from the College regarding a scholar who was awarded funds from the class of 1938: “Your generosity through the Class of 1938 Scholarship Fund enables talented students, regardless of their financial means, to come to this great institution. Your support is an investment in the next generation of leaders, who will—each in their own way—work to make the world a better place. Thank you.”
I am delighted to share information on this year’s graduating Class of 1938 Scholarship Fund scholar: Weiling J. Huang ’19 from Ann Arbor, Michigan, graduated cum laude with a major in computer science. Congratulations to Weiling as he starts his new chapter—it was our pleasure to help in our small way!
I received notice on the passing of one of our classmates, Alfred P. Beust. I have no additional information on Alfred’s passing. Should I receive any details, I will print them in the next column. Another star in heaven—deepest sympathy to his family.
A look at a ’38 memory from the past: “Remember the tug of war our freshman year, when we out-pulled and out-cheered the class of ’37? There was a large outcry after our victory to storm the Nugget. Many of us did and were met by the management with tear gas. There were a lot of sore-eyed ’38ers as a result!” Hard to believe such goings on from the gentlemen of that era! I’m inclined to believe that similar activities might still take place. Have a wonderful fall, with all of its glorious color!
