It’s summertime and the living is easy…well—at least it was during our Sophomore Summer! Here are some memories of that idyllic time.

As I write this in April, I can remember the hectic days at Dartmouth getting things ready for Commencement, reunions, and all the effort—started months ago—that goes into making all events successful, enjoyable, and, of course, the best ever!

Unbelievably, increasing numbers of our classmates are empty-nesters! Some are exhaling for the first time in years. What does one do when the carpools to hockey practice are over and the trips to doctors, dentists, and orthodontists have ended?

By unofficial count, about 114 members of our class have had children attend Dartmouth, about 15 percent of our class.

Plans for our fall class mini-reunion (October 10-13) are taking shape! Our local hosts and super-arrangers, Amy and Henry Nachman, have a stimulating, fun weekend in store for us.

When this issue of DAM arrives in your mailboxes, we’ll be T-minus one year or less until our June 17-21, 2020, 40th-41st reunion.

In response to the request for news of the current status of Steve Katz, I received calls from Crile Doscher and Steve himself.

I hope everyone is sitting down and not holding any sharp instruments, as I am about to share some shocking news. In what seems to be as common an occurrence as breathing, Sue Finegan has received yet another accolade.

Summer greetings! I begin this column by continuing the “what it means to be part of a community” theme that started in the last column, and then update you on several classmates’ new jobs and professional adventures.
