Class Note 1999
Issue
Jan-Feb 2020
Hello, ’99s!
As we welcome 2020, I hope you are all well and looking forward to the fresh start of a new year. We have some great class news to close out 2019.
First up, give a rouse to Seth Kelly, M.D., M.B.A, who was recently named to the Emergency Medicine Residents’ Association’s 45 under 45. This recognition comes “as EMRA celebrates 45 years of supporting the future of emergency medicine” to celebrate “outstanding young physicians whose contributions embody the spirit of the specialty” (www.emra.org/be-involved/awards/45under45/2019). “Seth is a third-year emergency medicine resident at the University of Maryland Medical Center and has more than 20 years of experience in prehospital medicine in the fire-rescue service (currently serving as a certified command officer in Montgomery County, Maryland). He also currently serves as the chair of the EMRA Prehospital and Disaster Medicine Committee, is a member of the American College of Emergency Physicians Emergency Medical Services and Disaster Preparedness and Response committees, and is the EMRA liaison to the National Prehospital Guidelines Consortium. Seth plans to pursue an EMS fellowship after finishing his residence in June to become an operational fire-rescue-EMS medical director.” Way to go, Seth!
As Dartmouth’s 250th year of celebration comes to a close, we can be proud of the support our class has given to the “College’s “Call to Lead.”
Through the College’s “Call to Serve,” an initiative to inspire acts of service throughout the Dartmouth community in 2019, our class logged 1,022 contributed hours of service. Our classmates served by doing pro bono work around the world in their fields of marketing, law, and medicine; volunteered in their communities in schools, youth sports, and environmental cleanup programs; and lent their time and expertise to nonprofit boards and foundations.
News also comes in from the Dartmouth College Fund that many of you helped us give our largest non-reunion total for the fund last year! This is in no small part thanks to a special challenge that matched gifts in May and June to celebrate the College’s 250th anniversary. Five of our classmates made their first-ever gifts through the fund, and we surpassed 30-percent participation. In addition to the DCF, members of the class of ’99 have supported many areas, including the Moosilauke Ravine Lodge, the Hood Museum, the Magnuson Center for Entrepreneurship, Dartmouth athletics, the Rockefeller Center, the International Student Scholarship Fund, endowed financial aid scholarships, Tuck, Thayer, and more!
