When I’m looking for more class news for our class column, I can always rely on our class president Deme Navab Taleghani for an update. I’m glad I asked this go-around—or our Class Notes section would be empty! The National Herald, a weekly Greek-American publication, recently featured Deme in a lengthy article about her upbringing in Iran and then in the United States as a Greek-Iranian immigrant, her work as a financial journalist and budding author, and the importance she places on family and civic responsibility. No doubt delighting the College alumni relations department, Deme speaks of her Dartmouth experience in glowing terms and of her continued devotion and service to our beloved College. The feature is a riveting read, and I’m surprised how much I learned about Deme even after knowing her for many years. I highly recommend it.

Please send me your news for our next class column.
