Class Note 1999
Issue
May-June 2020
Hello, ’99s.
I am finding that my memories of our college days, in a time before cell phone pictures were so prevalent, come in small and sometimes random moments. For example, on a sweltering early summer morning I will sometimes remember our graduation day and how much water I drank on the walk down East Wheelock Street. I also remember how early my parents had arrived on the Green to save their seats. At the time I thought it was ridiculous they had waited so long sitting in a chair, but now, as a parent, I get it. You do ridiculous things when you’re proud of your kid. Do you have any small memories to share of our times at Dartmouth? Something that would have been captured with a phone camera these days?
And now on to some classmates who make the ’99s proud.
Seth Pevnick was recently appointed curator of Greek and Roman art at the Cleveland Museum of Art. According to Cleveland Art (March/April 2019, www.clevelandart.org), Seth will “oversee the care and development of the collection of art of the ancient Mediterranean, including the art of Egypt and the Ancient Near East.” He is “an active scholar and prolific writer,” has “extensive archaeological fieldwork experience,” and “was awarded a fellowship at the American Academy in Rome for 2019.” Seth says, “I look forward to getting to know both the collection and the cultural community of northeast Ohio and to drawing exciting new connections between antiquity and the present day.”
Nick Levin has been working in the appellate section of the antitrust division of the U.S. Department of Justice for around 11 and a half years, arguing antitrust cases in the federal courts. In his free time he plays a lot of baseball and attends Washington Nationals games with his son. He also has fun playing in squash leagues and tournaments.
Thank you for sending me your news. Keep it coming! Also, if anyone has any ideas for ways to reach out to other classmates, or if you are interested in planning or attending a mini-reunion, let us know. As always, you can update your contact information and email/contact preferences as well as access other great alumni resources at alumni.dartmouth.edu/connect/find-alumni. Until next time.
