Chandler Lindsley, I am so sorry to have missed your email. I try to stay on top of all updates, but inadvertently missed yours. I hope your Appalachian Trail hike happened before the Covid-19 lockdown. Chandler invited classmates to join his trek, and shared: “I’ve sold my veterinary practice. I have a son who just completed his first semester of veterinary school, and my daughter is a computer science major and a goalkeeper for the women’s soccer team at Acadia University in Nova Scotia.” Co-head agents Lanie McNulty, Peter Gibson, and Seth Hendon report that our 35th reunion fundraising will emphasize participation. In a time when so much seems upended and divided, our reunion is a chance to put things right-side up and to re-unite around our shared Dartmouth community. The higher our participation, the more engaged our class, the more diverse its group of supporters, the more good we will do, and the more fun our reunion will be. To help in this effort, Seth Hendon’s family is offering a special match-funding. As an incentive to classmates who have not recently given to the Dartmouth College Fund (DCF), Seth’s family is offering to support the Upper Valley Haven (https://uppervalleyhaven.org) a wonderful nonprofit that serves families in need and where our classmate, Laura Gillespie, is director of development. For any amount given to the DCF by a five-year-lapsed giver, Seth’s family will donate $100 to the Haven; they will donate $250 for every 10-year-lapsed giver; and $500 for every never-giver (up to a total of $20,000). This match-funding deepens our class’s connection to a fabulous charity, doing amazing work for Dartmouth’s neighbors. Talk about reuniting and putting things right-side up! If you’re moved to give now, visit dartgo.org/fund. Our congratulations to Pamela Taylor’s growing family, she shares: “My daughter, Tasneem Malik (née Khalid) ’12, had her first child, my first grandchild, on September 27, 2020. Maybe we’ll become a three-generation Dartmouth family!” We are proud to report that Chris Demos-Brown’s film adaptation of the play, American Son, premiered on Netflix in November 2019 as a television drama and was nominated for a 2020 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Television Movie. Thank you to Peter Arnold, Liz Babb, Sarah Cotsen, Lanie McNulty, and Sue Sambrook for creating ’86 Career Advice Network (CAN). The ’86 CAN is on our class website, 1986.dartmouth.org. There I enjoyed Chip Fleischer’s interview in the new video series, How Did You Become A …, where our classmates will be interviewed about their chosen careers or paths. This network is for our class and immediate family only. If you have questions, suggestions, want more info on how to join or use ’86 CAN, email susansambrook@gmail.com.
