Robert B. Rusin ’68

Robert B. Rusin ’68 of Deerfield, Illinois,died October 5, 2022, after a long period of declining health. He came to Dartmouth from Winnetka, Illinois. A math major, Bob was a member of Foley House, enjoyed skiing and playing intramural hockey, and was a member of the Ledyard Canoe Club, a hint of a future major pastime. He was one of the few ’68s who canoed the length of the Connecticut River from Hanover down to Old Saybrook, Connecticut. After graduate work at Montana State University, he was a trader on the Chicago Board of Trade and worked in real estate for years. His lifelong love was canoeing and fishing: Bob took numerous trips to the Quetico Provincial Park and Lake of the Woods in Ontario, Canada, and on the Brule River in Wisconsin. Fishing trips took him to Alaska and New Zealand as well. He never lost his interest in Dartmouth football and hockey, which he followed on his computer. Bob was predeceased by brother John and sister Alinda and is survived by brother Tom.
