Class Note 2019
Issue
July-August 2021
Hi, ’19s!
I hope you’re enjoying the nice summer weather and are spending a lot of time outdoors in the sun! Let’s get right into the Class Notes!
First off, in early March the class executive committee hosted a ’19s Zoom trivia night. Thank you to Tara Burchmore and Regan Gore for organizing the event. Congrats to the winners—Regan Gore, Rebecca McElvain, David Wong, and Clifton Jeffery!
After a year and a half of working at a newspaper in Charlotte, North Carolina, Amanda Zhou is moving to Seattle to join The Seattle Times as a reporter. Amanda is excited to explore the Pacific Northwest outdoors and would love to connect with any Dartmouth alumni in the area!
Joelle Park wrote, “I recently started a new position at BuzzFeed as a video producer, so if I can channel Michelle Khare ’14 in any way, I’m ready to grind.”
Joelle also had a book recommendation, writing, “I recently started reading Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu. It’s presented as a Hollywood screenplay satire while highlighting the devastating reality of poverty, particularly among the senior citizens of Chinatown’s single-room occupancy hotels in America. It hits particularly hard in light of recent current events and definitely shares an aspect of the Asian American experience that is easiest for people to ignore in popular media. Charles Yu is an incredible writer, and the book has already made me cry and I’m not even halfway through.”
Charlotte Berry reported that Monika Gabriele will be heading back to Hanover and attending Geisel for medical school this fall!
Tara Burchmore shared that she will be moving to Cambridge, Massachusetts, this fall to get her master’s in public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School. She also wants to congratulate Megan Clyne, who has been selected as a Fulbright scholar, and Anneliese Thomas for committing to attend Northwestern Pritzker School of Law.
Finally, Reed Kuivila reported, “Struan Coleman and Max Heffron (Omicron Deuteron ’19s) have joined the Theta Delta Chi [TDX] national alumni board. They plan to travel to different TDX chapters this fall to ensure new member education carries out traditions of yore. Here’s to Old Lady Minerva!”
