Class Note 2018
Issue
November-December 2022
Hi, ’18s! It’s hard to believe another year is drawing to a close! As 2023 approaches and I reflect on this past year, I’m so grateful for my Dartmouth family! I hope you all feel the same during this holiday season. In this column, I asked you to reflect on fall at Dartmouth.
Scheridan Vorwaller-Cloward wrote in to describe her favorite memories from freshman fall. She wrote, “Two of my favorite things from freshman fall term included settling in and getting to experience a New England autumn! I remember feeling so nervous and so small when I first got to my dorm room. How was I going to fit in and meet people?
“My floor in McCulloch was seemingly empty besides my suitcases and me. I remember being anxious to see how the term would progress. A little while later I heard life on the floor and stepped out of my room. I saw a tired but fantastic human being, toothbrush in hand, who was fresh off of her trip and had just woken up. We both seemed a little timid and startled at first, but she became one of my dearest and closest friends from my time at Dartmouth. The next memory was from ‘Writing 5.’ I had a view from the third floor of Baker Library, and I would get so genuinely distracted by the changing foliage outside the window that I eventually had to change seats and put the window to my back. It was so colorful and gorgeous; it really stole my heart.” Thank you for your reflections, Scheridan! Your entry truly brings me back to 14F!
Scheridan also celebrated her second anniversary with her husband, Matthew Cloward, this year. Happy anniversary! She has received her engineer-in-training certification in electrical engineering and is working toward becoming a professional engineer in Utah. Congratulations, Scheridan!
In July Ella Ryan, Dru Falco, Francesca Governali, Carolyn McShea, Riley Carbone, and Lily Xu reunited for a week-long bike trip. They biked from Underhill, Vermont, to Portland, Maine, making many stops along the way, including at Hanover and the Moosilauke Ravine Lodge. It sounds like an amazing trip!
Taylor McKenna got engaged in July to Duncan Hurrelbrink ’17. The pair met on ski patrol in 2014 and have been together since 2016. They currently live in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with their puppy, Rhubarb, and are gearing up for a September 2023 wedding in Vermont! Congratulations, Taylor and Duncan!
Finally, Taylor Johnson is enjoying a new basketball season in London. He is excited to have the opportunity to share the court with his old teammate Aaryn Rai ’22 this year. Sounds like fun; go, team!
Thanks to everyone who submitted their updates and stories. It’s so good to hear about what everyone is up to!
Have a happy New Year, ’18s! Cheers to 2023!
