Class Note 2003

After letting us know about the birth of their adorable son Cedric in the last column, Katherine Rue Bollinger wanted to add that husband Bryan Bollinger “will be starting at NYU’s Stern School of Business as an assistant professor of marketing this fall.” Congratulations, Bryan! Jonathan Eisenman will be packing up soon from the nation’s capital and heading clear across the country to southern California to take a job with the federal government. Fortunately there are a lot of other ’03 alums there to make him feel welcome (hint, hint)! Also, Jillian Powers wrote to say she’ll be completing her Ph.D. in sociology at Duke this May and is set to accept a postdoctorate position at Washington University in St. Louis in the American culture studies program. “If there are any alumni in the area, let’s be friends!”


Finally, given the ample space left, I’ll update you all on myself. (Try not to get too excited!) I’ll be graduating from UPMC St. Margaret family medicine residency this June and I’m set to start up a brand spanking new practice this fall located about an hour north of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. If all goes according to plan by the time you are reading this I will also be a homeowner. Homeowner status means more than just that coveted tax writeoff; it also means I’ll have a posh spare bedroom. Anyone up for a trip to the City of Champions shall no longer need a hotel room. Yinz all are welcome to visit any time!
