As we enter the new year, the rear-view mirror reflects the arrival of a new Dartmouth president, the fall semester is behind us, our multimedia and mixed-media mini-reunion was conducted, and Homecoming was observed with all of the usual accoutremen
It was as universal as any time that I can remember. No matter who or where I probed, the topic was the same: “the weather.” And many suffered a summer of sweltering heat.
Well, we have traversed through another summer. Students are back on campus and fall sports teams are tuning up. We have had another Zoom mini-reunion and we are planning for another one in the September timeframe.
Let’s take a moment to reflect on the months at the beginning of this year. The Covid pandemic emergency was declared over. Southern California experienced record amounts of snow and rain.
Well, the academics and the athletics of the fall are behind us. Now it is the grind of winter in Hanover with thoughts already reaching toward Green Key and spring break.
The November Zoom mini-reunion is behind us and a recap would be that it was an excellent update on the pulse of the campus, the Covid constraints still existing, and some opportunities to chat and catch up with classmates.
