Class Note 1986
Issue
I’m pleased to be starting Year 4 as secretary. Thank you for making my work generally fun. Your votes also “steered” me (rightly or wrongly) to the Galapagos for my next vacation to swim with penguins and dolphins. I will head there when SAT season ebbs.
We begin with a “college dropout”—after 18 years of teaching and directing international programs at Hanover College in Indiana Ted Farrell enrolled in law school at the University of Louisville and is now a 3L. Ted intends to specialize in immigration law with a focus on employment-based immigration for universities and hospitals. Ted, Fiona (13) and Silas (10) returned to New Hampshire to hike Moosilauke this summer in pea-soup fog and stay at the Ravine Lodge. “I see Marion Halliday and John Fendig and play online scrabble with Lisa Richardson.”
Also in Hanover this summer: Mark Irish, who spent seven weeks doing two shows at the Lebanon Opera House. “I’m finally making it legal with my partner of nearly 18 years. The honeymoon will be during peak foliage in Maine. Will send pictures after I’m officially hitched.”
More Hanover—permanently until he gets another 12-month sabbatical: David Kotz is Dartmouth professor of computer science; his wife is a pediatrician at DHMC. They spent the last 11 months in India, “from the southernmost tip at Kanyakumari to the far north near Darjeeling.” What we miss most are the friendly people and the fabulous food!” On the way home they toured Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, all with their children (ages 8, 10, 12).
Kathleen Holland Bacon has been in London for 16 years. “Married to a Brit (Andrew), have three British children and work for a private equity fund of funds. Hobbies include cricket, rugby and darts. Just kidding. I’ve swapped my squash racquet for a tennis racquet and my sorority get-togethers for book club. I’ve stopped road tripping to places like Boston and Montreal and now go to Paris, Barcelona and Stockholm.”
Janice Kuhn is now the mother of baby Chelsea Isabella Charles. She and husband Gary Charles live in vibrant Yonkers, New York. When not caring for the baby Janice is in business development at Sidley Austin, a global law firm. “They have been very good to me and give me a lot of flexibility.” And Wade Manaker became a father this spring. He and his bride are in Argentina. Wade serves as an M.D. for the U.S. military. Robert Munafo is in Cambridge, Massachusetts, doing scientific research, and in October married his companion. He has a taste for extropianism—extropians believe in boundless expansion, and pursue “space development,” “cryonics,” “life extension,” “artificial intelligence” and “smart drugs.” He was tangentially involved in the “Green is the new Crimson” banners now seen around the Harvard campus. (Nice innuendo: insidious, Orwellian, looming Dartmouth takeover of Harvard—good work.)
Best entry came from Krista Thomas Corr. In brief she’s still working on public corruption cases for the FBI in Boston. In full visit www.dartmouth86.org (or hang on for the Marchiony winter newsletter) to read of mooching throughout the United States with the mantra “you don’t need to own the boat, you just need to know the person that owns the boat.” She and Bart welcome return ’86 “moochers” to their home in Newton, Massachusetts.
