Class Note 1959
Issue
May - Jun 2019
The most recent column stated that our class would be receiving a lifetime social justice award from the College for the class’s role in founding and continuing to support Dartmouth Partners in Community Service—our signature project. The award ceremony was held at the end of January. Doug Wise accepted the award on behalf of the class. Karl Holtzschue, a founding and principal supporter, currently our representative on the project’s board of directors, participated on a panel of award winners. Michael Stern, who initially proposed the concept to the class in the early 1990s and has continued to be a principal supporter, also participated in the event. The class was represented by a number of others, including Janice and Chris Cundey, Joanne Wise, Betsy and Jim Wooster, Joan and Wayne French, Debbie and Mike Nolen, and Mal Swenson.
This column, although prepared in late February, appears in May—the last column published prior to the celebration of our 60th reunion, which will take place in Hanover on June 10-13 under the chairmanship of Chris Cundey and Jim Wooster. They expect, based on expressions of intent which they have received, that a large, perhaps even record, turnout of well more than 150 classmates, spouses, widows, and others will attend.
John Ferries is chairman of communications for the reunion and has sent to the class several newsletters containing details. A recent letter contains, among other details, a list of those who have expressed an intention to attend and a tentative schedule of events, which includes dinners on the lawn of Baker Library and in the grand ballroom of the Hanover Inn, a reception in the newly reopened Hood Museum, several talks by College speakers (including President Phil Hanlon), and a memorial service in Rollins Chapel. Although active sports will not be on the formal agenda, some classmates and spouses plan to play golf in the New London, New Hampshire, area following the reunion. Those interested in participating should contact Chris Cundey or Dave Marshall, whose contact information is in the newsletter.
