As promised, I begin this month’s column with information about the whereabouts of JIM HALL, BRAD EVANS and ALFRED HOROWITZ all of whom responded to my request for information. Jim resides in Silver Spring, Maryland and has spent most of his career as a physician at a Christian health center (which he founded) located in a low-income neighborhood in Washington, D.C. He also taught part-time at the George Washington Medical School. However, healing the human community has not been Jim’s only interest. During the past 10 years he has he has continued his education in ecology and plant science in preparation for his role in caring for the woodlands, ponds, meadows and creeks on a 200-acre church retreat in suburban Maryland. He anticipates that in the years ahead he will continue to serve both the human and natural community since in his words, "Ultimately, there is only one health care system and it’s planetary." Alfred is a diagnostic radiologist at a hospital in Chicago. However, he said that he may relocate to Northern California to be near to his children in the not-to-distant future. (I expect that the weather this past winter in the "windy city" may have moved up his timetable.) Brad lives in New York City and is managing director of the mergers and acquisitions department of Morgan Stanley Dean Witter. He reports that he and his wife, Barbara, have already signed up for the 35th reunion in October and look forward to seeing as many classmates as possible while they are there.

JAN HOVING returned to the Netherlands where, at last report, he was employed at Kone Starlift and STEPHEN PERRY is practicing radiology on Staten Island, New York. My old roommate, DOUG RABER (Washington, DC) is the director of the board on chemical sciences and technology at the National Academy of Sciences. (Sounds like one of those "Washington bureaucrats" to me.) Closer to Hanover, I found PHIL SCHAEFER and HUGH SAVAGE, both of whom have returned to New England after spending their post-Dartmouth years elsewhere. Phil is now living in Grantham, NH following his retirement from the pharmaceutical industry. Hugh returned to his native, Maine, and is now living in Brunswick where he is a self-employed civil engineer specializing in site design, erosion control and home inspections. He and his wife, Caroline are the parents of five children most of whom have followed their father into careers in engineering. And finally for this month, ALDEN WRIGHT emailed in from Missoula, Montana where he is a professor of computer science at the University of Montana. Alden teaches a variety of computer science courses while focusing his research on genetic algorithms.

In closing, another reminder. If you haven not signed up to attend our 35th reunion in October, call Carl DuRei 617-330-4281 and sign up for the last great reunion of the 20th century.
