Class Note 2012
Hi again, ’12s!
It’s me again! New issue, new set of updates! Hope everyone has had a great summer post-graduation and has transitioned smoothly into the “real world” (whatever that means, right?). Seems like most are settling in and starting to get a handle on it all.
Before I move on to updates just want to remind you all to continue to like the ’12s Facebook page, follow us on Twitter, check out our website and join the party on Linkedin by searching “Dartmouth Class of 2012.” (More details below.)
Also, a quick reminder to continue to send updates my way at k.crisp12@gmail.com. Remember, nothing is too small. Send everything my way and I’ll make sure it makes it in, mmmk?! Please and thank you.
Okay, onto the updates.
Our very own Phil Grisdela along with Nick Dawe ’10 competed at the world crew championship in Bulgaria August 14-19. Big ups to them both.
Peter Williamson has won two major amateur golf championships—the North & South Amateur in North Carolina in early July and the Southern Amateur Championship later that month—and has qualified for his third U.S. amateur championship. The Masters can’t be far. (See his story, page 22.)
Exciting news for Sarah Streeter, who began work at global health and humanitarian aid organization AmeriCares, where the president and CEO, Curtis Welling ’71, is also a Dartmouth alum. Lots of Dartmouth love at AmeriCares.
Jabari Trotter is now playing professional basketball overseas in Dublin, Ireland. Snaps to Jabari. We wish him nothing but the best!
News Daily’s article title reads, and I quote, “Mkosana Stars at Harrisburg City Island,” as they write about the one and only Lucky Mkosana. Lucky is now playing in the United Soccer Leagues pro league for the Harrisburg City Islanders in Pennsylvania and has been deemed a “game changer.” You know what this means—all of you even remotely close to Pennsylvania have to make your way to a game to show him some love.

Also, continue to keep an eye out for information from our wonderful mini-reunion chairs Catherine Roedel and Satoshi Harrison- Koizumi, who are working hard to make sure there are plenty of organized events for ’12s and other alums to get together and reminisce about the olden days. (Can I say that yet? Has it been long enough for us to have “olden days?” I’ll let you guys decide.) Some of these will be big events like our zero-year reunion during Homecoming, but some will also be smaller events at local bars, restaurants, parks, you name it, where fun will surely be had by all!
Alrighty, that’s all I have for now, but I know y’all have been up to some great things (or maybe up to no good…either way works for me) so be sure to keep the updates coming so I can pass it along to everyone. Good luck out there and have a great holiday season.
