Class of ’13s, hope you have your pumpkin spice latte nearby, because this is going to be a good one.

Next, let’s catch up with classmates celebrating the joining of families. Nathan Friendly and Rita-Louise Montour got married over Memorial Day Weekend in a fabulous camp adventure with a strong Dartmouth showing. In August Ryan Collins married Sam St. Lawrence, a Brown 2014 graduate, on Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

To round out this edition, let’s end with some classmates doing great things. Danny Freeman proved he’s not just a pretty face on TV and recently changed his Twitter bio to include “Emmy Award-winning reporter”—congratulations!
