Class Note 1960
Issue
Nov - Dec 2018
My old sailing buddy Bob Prouty is the second to last of his class at Dartmouth Medical School to retire. Bob fully enjoyed a pediatric practice, often seeing three generations of patients visit his office on the same day. Cheers for a philosophy major practicing the art of medicine.
Bruce Hasenkamp’s son, Peter ’98, Th’99, Th’00, comments on his visit to Detroit with the Thayer race car competition in 2004. “I remember that visit quite clearly. It was one of my first interactions with a group of alumni, and I came away humbled that they would take such an interest in the Formula team and pleased to see that the Dartmouth experience is lifelong and that the friendly, inviting attitude that drew me to the College seemed to also be shared by a group of alumni I had never met. A pleasant coincidence that Sid Goldman happened to be one of the people there that day, and the 1960 thread carried through to Michigan from my upbringing in California. I try to remember that visit when I am interfacing with current undergrads or recent alumni and ensure I do my best to emulate the example you set that day.”
Ed Berkowitz is rightly proud of his nephew, Ethan, currently mayor of Anchorage, Alaska. Ethan’s dad, Nate, lately attended the West Coast monthly get-together in Sausalito, California, along with Roger Hackley, Rick Roesch, Hap Dunning and partner Carolyn Geiger, Mary Farquhar, Elaine Horschman, Karl Mayer, Peter Farquhar, Lee Horschman, and Dick Foley.
Robert Hager (formerly of WDCR and 35 years as a correspondent for NBC) laments the widespread and often incorrect use of the term “fake news.” “Fake news should properly be used only to describe news that is factually wrong—a relatively rare occurrence in mainstream media but more of a problem with offbeat news websites and blogs. The larger issue is that many use the term incorrectly to describe any report with which the user simply disagrees, even if it is accurate reporting or a fair-game opinion piece.”
Let’s hear from you before Homecoming and while we’re still standing.
Cheers to all.
