1981 President Greg Clow named “Class President of the Year”

During the 2010 Class Officer’s Weekend, held in Hanover in early October, Greg Clow was named Class President of the Year for 2010 for classes 26 years out and older. When asked about winning the award, Greg said, “This came as a big surprise. I know we had worked hard with a strong class executive committee, and the terrific participation of our class in mini-reunion attendance and DCF giving, but to be singled out like this was special. It goes without saying that winning this award would not have happened without the support of the other class officers and all of my classmates.” The Class of 1981 also won a “Special Recognition” award as part of the “Class of the Year” competition. This recognition places our class in the top echelon of the 77 alumni classes represented at Dartmouth. The citation for the award stated that "the vision, hard work and

strategic planning of this class are exemplary. The class president and the 1981 Executive Committee are to be saluted.” All in all, our class had a very strong showing, with seven officers in attendance and several others as well including: Greg Clow, Pam Gehret, Molly Van Metre, David Edelson, Julie Koeninger, Robert Goldbloom, Nancy Baskin, Patsy

During its November meeting, the Dartmouth Board of Trustees elected Annette Gordon-Reed ’81 as a new trustee - the first member of the Class to serve on the Board. She will be filling the seat vacated by Al Mulley ’70. Mulley will step down from the Board upon assuming his role as the director of the Dartmouth Center for Health Care Delivery Science on November 15. Gordon-Reed, who will join the Board at its next meeting in February, is a legal scholar and historian, whose 2008 investigation of slavery in the American colonial period and the early American republic, The Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family, won 16 awards, including the 2009 Pulitzer Prize in history. This year, Gordon-Reed was awarded the MacArthur “genius” Fellowship for her scholarship on Thomas Jefferson and was a recipient of the National Humanities Medal. She is currently a faculty member at Harvard, serving as Professor of Law at Harvard Law School, Professor of History in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and the Carol K. Pforzheimer Professor at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study. A history major at Dartmouth, she graduated with high distinction in 1981 and earned a JD from Harvard Law School in 1984. Gordon-Reed is a member of the Dartmouth Alumni Council and serves on the Enrollment & Admissions and Student Affairs committees. She lives in New York City with her husband. The couple has two children. Steve Mandel ’78, chair of the Board of Trustees, said, “We are delighted to add such a distinguished scholar to Dartmouth’s Board. Annette will bring a valuable perspective that will enhance and complement the talents of our current trustees. My fellow Board members and I greatly look forward to working with her.” Gordon-Reed said, “I am deeply honored by this opportunity to serve Dartmouth.

Resistance is Futile

by Pat Berry ‘81

Over morning coffee, I learn it’s Steve Pignatiello’s birthday, that Abner Oakes will be clubbing in DC next month, and that Molly Sundberg Van Metre’s daughter, Mary, a ‘14 and a swimmer, will anchor the Big Green women’s 200 medley on Friday. I stalk my daughters’ photos and learn what’s troubling my Montclair neighbors. After a few eye-opening minutes, I’m off to work, but it’s there through my day: access to what’s happening in my expanding world. If you’re already on Facebook, won’t you join the “Dartmouth Class of 1981” group? Jerry Pierce Santos just joined. So did Juliette Rossant. Mike Steinharter’s on board. So are Winnifred Levy and Ellen Brout Lindsey. Need another reason? Think 30th Reunion—you’ve heard we’re having one, right? The chatter is picking up. Post your topics, your whereabouts, your photos. And maybe we’ll see each other over coffee. Then, perhaps you can explain how Abner has enough energy to go clubbing.

As an undergraduate, Dartmouth fueled my passion in history, and I am grateful that pursuing that passion has led me back to campus. I have enjoyed immensely serving the College as an alumna volunteer, and I am delighted to have the chance to become even more deeply involved in the life and governance of the College.” This article was reprinted from Dartmouth Now

Why I Love Facebook

“I’m still trying to carry on Charlie Wood’s legacy, teaching at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, where I am professor of medieval history, with courses on topics ranging from the history of apocalyptic thought to “Magic, Science, and the Occult from Antiquity to Newton.” I’m finishing up a book called “The Saint and the Chopped-Up Baby: The Cult of Vincent Ferrer and the Religious Life of Medieval and Early Modern Europe,” based on research supported

in part by the Guggenheim Fellowship I held in 2004-05. I also publish in the history of astrology and prophecy. My husband (Bruce Smoller ‘79) and I have two boys, Jason (Brown ‘09) and Gabriel (Vassar ‘11). Here in Little Rock we enjoy the company of my freshman roommate (and sister-in-law) Robin Sullivan (‘81), and her two girls.”

We’re most of the way through our countdown: REASON #10: Nostalgia REASON #9: A Beautiful Place to be in June REASON #8: Support the College REASON #7: Make it a Family Vacation REASON #6: Experience the 2011 Campus REASON #5: Networking Just to help build the incredible suspense, we’ll do the Final Four [reasons] one at a time: REASON #4: Educate Yourself

Isn’t this why we went to Dartmouth in the first place? [Well, most of us, anyway.] “Alumni College at Reunion” offers many interesting learning opportunities over the entire reunion week. Last year, over the weekend alone [the equivalent time to when our class’s 30th is scheduled], lectures by Professors Ackerman, Virginia, Swayne, Rassias, Saccio, Pease and others covered a wide range of timely topics representing all major disciplines. No doubt that at our 30th Reunion some of Dartmouth’s most illustrious and beloved teachers will present lectures designed not only to educate, but to inspire and entertain as well. The professors and topics chosen are largely determined based on the expressed demand of the alums coming to reunion. So, if you have any suggestions – for topics and or professors -- now is a good time to speak up. Either let us know, or contact Reunion Chair Nancy Baskin. As the reunion nears, we will be able to tell you the lectures that are actually scheduled. [Stay tuned for the rest of the countdown in future issues]

We have two classmates considered “LOST.” If you know anything about the whereabouts of them, please email Greg. Their names are:

Anthony Desir William Perry

Anthony Desir has now been found, thanks to some super sleuthing. See the article below catching up with Anthony - who has been “lost” for over 25 years.

Missing Classmates

Anthony Desir Found.After searching the internet for “Anthony Desir,” a listing came up in the 2009 London “Mines and Money” annual convention report which featured Anthony as a speaker. He gave a presentation as the

principal of Sami Funds on how China perceives African Risk. Anthony writes in: “I have lived in Hong Kong for the last 21 years and rarely come back to the US. I am not sure about making it to the 30th Reunion next year, but I do have to take a trip across the

waters with my son, (Australian), who needs to start looking at US colleges. My eldest decided to go to law school in France and my second in line may come to Dartmouth. My two youngest are still not out of elementary school so who knows - there is still hope.” Anthony adds, “If anyone has a beer, kindly send it to me. I hear that if you type in www.sendbeer.hk and pour a jug into your computer, it will magically come out on my side of the world.” Not sure about that technological advancement, but it was good catching up with one of our longest “lost” classmates on record.

A mini-reunion of sorts for Lydia Herman Lazar, Steve Quatrano and Deanie Pearce who got together at Block Island this August, 2010.


“After about 20 years in various financial roles including municipal bond trading and underwriting, international commercial and merchant banking, crisis-management consulting, and CRM consulting, I took a year off to try the “stay-home” role with my young children. Lasted about a year, then I started working in my mother’s residential real estate practice, in my home town near Annapolis, MD, which allowed me to work near home, with a flexible schedule so I could still spend time with my family and do lots of volunteering. Ten years later, my mother is long retired, and I am a full-time realtor, married with 2 kids (in middle school and high school), very active in community volunteering, including school, Assistance League, Girl Scouts, etc. Just joined Facebook thanks to my 15 year old, and having loads of fun looking up old friends – I just signed up to join the FB Group for our class, and I am looking forward to my ‘confirmation’ so I can see which other classmates are there!”

We hear from Jon’s proud father, Don Goss ‘53, “Jon is now the Principal of the Wendall, Idaho High School. In addition, he hired himself as Head Boy’s Varsity Soccer Coach. Two years ago he was named “Idaho Soccer Coach of the Year.” This year he finished an 18-1 campaign and won the Idaho State Soccer Championship. It was the first ever in the history of the school. The team also won the Tournament Sportsmanship Award” as well. What Don didn’t mention was that the state championship game was won following double overtime and a shoot out - Whew! Great job Jon!

Bill reports in with some family news, and his recent change in jobs... “After 25 years in private practice with a firm in Saco, Maine, I left my firm to become in-house counsel for Saco & Biddeford Savings Institution, a large mutual savings bank that I have represented for over 20 years. I started in October. Holly and I have three children. Will graduated from Bishop’s University in Quebec in 2009 and is currently working for a real estate developer on a huge mill project in southern Maine. Andy is a senior at Bishop’s University and will graduate in 2011 and Erin is a senior at Thornton Academy in Saco and she is going through the college application process right now.” Through some intrepid reporting, we were able to Google some more details

about Bill’s activities, which he was too modest to send in... “Saco & Biddeford Savings Institution has announced the hiring of Bill Kany as director of legal and government affairs. As

a partner in the Saco law firm of Smith Elliott Smith & Garmey since 1987, Kany has represented the Saco-based bank as outside counsel for more than 20 years. An honors graduate from both Dartmouth College and the University of Maine School of Law, Kany’s legal practice has focused on banking law, real estate transactions and litigation, commercial transactions, land use and zoning matters and estate planning and probate administration. A member of the Maine Bar Association since 1984, he is admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court of Maine, U.S. Court of Appeals Federal Circuit and the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. “Kany is a lifelong resident of Saco and active in numerous community organizations. He is a member of the board of trustees at Thornton Academy, past president of the Biddeford & Saco Chamber of Commerce and a 23-year member of the Biddeford Saco Rotary, which presented him with its 2010 Presidential Award.

“We’re steeling ourselves for our first encounter with the college admissions process. Our oldest son, Rory, is trying to figure out the best fit for a bassoon playing oarsman who speaks Russian and Arabic and sings in an a capella group (not all at the same time!). I understand from other ‘81s we will all have roamed far and wide before that question is answered. Our youngest son, Owen, is in 8th grade. He keeps busy with hockey and lacrosse and, most recently, as a member of a local improv comedy. My wife, Maura, is Senior Counsel at SunLife of Canada, which is conveniently headquartered about a five minute drive from our home. I’m Executive Director of the Boston Bar Association, where I’ve had to be on my best behavior since fellow ‘81 Lon Povich joined the board in September.

Bob reported in from Ohio the following: “I moved to OSU this past July to run the Comprehensive Transplant Center and the Division of Cardiac Surgery. I am hoping to live up to expectations here - and I’m excited by the challenge. My family is well. My son John is a freshman football player at Dartmouth, my daughter Grace is a junior in high school, and my youngest son, Grant, is a 6th grader. So I have to keep working to pay the bills! I am looking forward to seeing all of you sometime this year, maybe at the Big Green. Below I have included a piece that came out a few weeks ago with soome good information on my new responsibilities.” (From the press release...) Dr. Robert S. D. Higgins, professor of surgery; director, Comprehensive Transplant Center; and chief, Division of Cardiac Surgery, shared his vision for the future of Ohio State’s Comprehensive Transplant Center at a recent town meeting held at the OSU Medical Center. Prior to Dr. Higgins current appointment, he was chair

of the Department of Cardiovascular-Thoracic Surgery at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, Illinois. Although happy at Rush, Dr. Higgins said that he was aware of the national reputation of OSU’s transplant

program and of the Ross Heart Hospital. “The position at OSU seems like a good fit.” He sees an opportunity for growth and development, saying that OSU’s transplant program has the potential to go from a nationally recognized program to a “top 10” program. Quoting OSU president Dr. E. Gordon Gee, Higgins goal is to take the transplant program “from excellence to eminence”. Dr. Higgins listed his priorities as 1.) reactivating the lung transplant program at OSU and 2.) achieving critical success factors in multi-organ transplantations. Other goals include raising donor awareness and registration and promoting the huge impact and life-saving potential the program holds for the Midwest region. The OSU Comprehensive Transplant Center is the only program of its kind in the central Ohio area and 1 of only 254 transplant programs nationally. Over 7,000 life-saving transplantations have been performed at Ohio State since the program’s inception in 1967.

by Abner Oakes OK, feed your brain, Team ‘81. Here’s the music that I got on my brain these days. 1. Graham Parker and the Rumour, Squeezing Out Sparks, 1979. This record was a big deal for me DJ’ing at ‘FRD many moons ago. Local Girls is a brilliant song, and I play wicked air drums to Saturday Nite is Dead. 2. John Legend and the Roots, Wake Up!, 2010. Our Charlie is a drummer and wants to be the next Questlove, the leader of the Roots. On this album are 11 covers from the 60s and 70s, all meant to wake up your soul. 3. Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, I Learned the Hard Way, 2010. The first real concert our Charlie saw?: Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings at DC’s 9:30 Club - funky town! Soul crazy! And this is a great set of new tunes. 4. Kevin Connolly, North/East, 2010. Yup, new record from this Dartmouth ‘83 and AD brethren - and the song Chevy Impala got played on NPR’s Car Talk this October. New Englanders: Look for Kevin’s shows this winter. 5. Nati Cano’s Mariachi Los Camperos, Viva el Mariachi!, 2002. Ever since our first trip to Mexico’s San Miguel de Allende, I have fallen in love with mariachi. Here’s the one I play over and over; Nati Cano is a legend. Editor’s Note: Charlie Oakes (age 9) just joined two 5th graders to form a band called the F-35s. Their repertoire includes Blur’s “Song 2” and “Seven Nation Army” from the White Stripes. Doesn’t that warm your heart?

“Back in April I was up to my ears organizing a mini-reunion for ex-radio station members at the end of July. I used the Dartmouth Alumni Directory and other on-line aids to track down over 70 WDCR/WFRD alums I knew from the classes of ‘77 to ‘85. All planning was done via e-mail, which was sometimes a bear since my emails kept landing in people’s spam folders. But in the end 14 alums showed

up for a wonderful weekend at the Bavarian Inn and Lodge in Shepherdstown, West Virginia. The attendees ranged from the classes of ‘77 to ‘83 with some spouses and kids, but there was one other ‘81, Ken Flint. The venue was a recommendation from my sister (who lives nearby in Maryland) and I couldn’t resist the opportunity to put a touch of Germany into the event! The weekend kicked off with a reception on Friday evening. Some of us hadn’t seen each other since our Dartmouth days, so it

was interesting to see if we would even recognize each other after so many years (we did)! We spent a fascinating (and very warm) Saturday at the Antietam National Battleground just across the Potomac in Maryland and then had a delicious reunion barbecue on the terrace of the Inn. A laid-back breakfast on Sunday morning rounded off the weekend. Everyone had a fantastic time and already want to know when the next one will be! “I spent the rest of Sunday trekking with Bob Blum ‘83 about 12mi along the

Laura writes in to tell us about a remarkable change that happened in her life just three years ago. “After Dartmouth I worked for a while in insurance, went on to get my MBA in healthcare management from Wharton and worked in healthcare management consulting and hospital administration for years until my son was diagnosed with autism at the age of two. His diagnosis changed my life; I quit my job and advocated for Matt full time for five years, found a parent-delivered treatment that worked well for him, received my certification to train other parents in implementing this intervention with their children, and in 2007 started my own business, Autism Family Services, LLC (http://www.autismfamilyservices.com), whose mission is empowering parents of children with autism by training parents in methods to improve their child’s autism within the family lifestyle and helping them to secure effective school programs for their child. I live in Simsbury, Connecticut with my husband,

Vince, an attorney (Georgetown law ‘78) with his own practice focusing on medical malpractice litigation, and my three children, Marianne, 18 (Vanderbilt ‘13), Julianne, 13, an eighth grader with an inclination toward music and science, and Matthias, 10, our fifth grade work-in-progress who sings in the special chorus, plays the clarinet in the school band, has perfect pitch and often points out that I am singing songs in the wrong key.



Dartmouth alumni results from November electionWhile three Dartmouth alumni ran for seats in the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives in New Hampshire, other College alumni participated in races around the country — from state senate battles to gubernatorial elections. Republican Gov. John Hoeven ’79 won the North Dakota Senate seat vacated by retiring Democratic Sen. Byron Dorgan, defeating Democrat Tracy Potter in a widely expected victory. Hoeven, who has been the country’s longest serving active governor, has not yet named a successor.

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand ’88, D-N.Y., who filled Hillary Clinton’s seat when Clinton was appointed secretary of state, handily defeated Republican challenger Joseph Dioguardi in a special election to determine who would complete Clinton’s term. Gillibrand, who was long seen as a vulnerable candidate, foresaw a tough road ahead in her victory speech. “I haven’t been

in Washington very long, but I can tell you it’s broken,” Gillibrand said. “And the challenges we face have never been greater.” In Ohio’s Senate race, Republican Rob Portman ’78 cruised to an 18-point victory over Democrat Lee Fisher to fill the seat of the retiring Republican Sen. George Voinovich. Portman was the director of the Office of Management and Budget under former President George W. Bush and a former Representative from Ohio’s 2nd congressional district. The win reflected Republicans’ greater enthusiasm and organization in this year’s midterm elections, The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported. “In the end, hope and common sense have triumphed,” Portman said in his victory speech. “Today, the people have spoken forcefully and clearly.” The race between Democrat John Kitzhaber ’69 and Republican Chris Dudley in the Oregon gubernatorial election was close, but by early Wednesday morning Kitzhaber had followed his lead in the pre-election polls to win. He will replace current Democratic Gov. Ted Kulongoski, who cannot run because of term limits. Tay Stevenson ’10, one of the youngest candidates in the country this election cycle, surprised many when he decided to run for the Minnesota State Senate’s 12th district. A member of the College Democrats and a government and philosophy major at Dartmouth, Stevenson chose to make a run at representing his hometown of Brainerd, Minn. Stevenson ended up losing to Republican Paul Gazelka. Michael Capuano ’73, one of two Dartmouth alumni currently serving in the House of Representatives, was not challenged in his run for Massachusetts’ 8th congressional district seat. A Democrat, he has now held the seat since 1999. The other Dartmouth alumnus currently in the House, Democratic Rep. Paul Hodes ’72, decided to leave New Hampshire’s 2nd congressional district seat to run for the Senate seat that will be vacated by retiring Republican Sen. Judd Gregg. Hodes was defeated by Republican Kelly Ayotte by a wide margin. Two alumni competed to replace Hodes’s empty Congressional seat: Democrat Ann McLane Kuster ’78 and Republican Charlie Bass ’74. Bass, who filled the seat from 1995 to 2007, defeated Kuster in a hotly contested race. John Carney ‘78, who won Delaware’s at-large House seat with a 56.8-percent majority, was one of the few Democratic pickups this election cycle. Following stints as the state’s secretary of finance and lieutenant governor, Carney made a failed gubernatorial bid in 2008 and moved to the private sector. He now helms Transformative Technologies LLC, a company specializing in renewable energy. Reprinted from the November 3, 2010 issue of The Dartmouth, by John Biberman
