It's probably too late to get one of the designated rooms for our Mini-Reunion on October 27-29 (Dartmouth Night: home game versus Harvard), but it's not too late to participate. There will be a class tent and a post-game cocktail party at the Inn. A table in the Inn's Daniel Webster Room is reserved for dinner. E-mail Steve Blecher to reserve a place (sblecher@ifsam.com).

When I asked Pete Luitwieler about changing his e-mail address, he answered that after 35 years in the oil business he and his wife Marlene decided to enter a new phase of their lives with more time for family -- especially 3 granddaughters in Tulsa and Dallas. They'll remain in Tulsa and Pete will still consult regularly with oil companies in Latin America ("I was a Spanish major and the last 12 years CITGO has been owned by the state oil company of Venezuela. So my semester abroad and summer abroad finally paid off !!").

At last May's Dartmouth Sailing Team Alumni Regatta, Jay Evans and Steve Blecher and their spouses represented the great class of '64. Jay and Hasty even won a special "seniors honors" award for their extra efforts on the race course. Jay is a senior fixed income portfolio manager for Fleet Bank in Boston. Jay and Hasty are avid sailors and keep a J-105 (35 foot sailboat) at North Falmouth, Massachusetts. Most of us remember Jay as the head of the cheerleading squad and the "Indian".

Using our web page feedback link Kurt Schloth tells us that he moved from California to Lakeview, Oregon (pop. 2700, elev. 5000) where he's a contractor with the Bureau of Land Management, "helping folks to live in comfort with their computer network". He's frantically learning UNIX, on and off the job. His wife Susan is still in Sacramento but is scouting around Lakeview for healthcare jobs.

Frank Hannah has been spending the last year on sabbatical in St. Andrews, Scotland with his wife, Janette, after completing a five year stint as a Dean of Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, where he has taught mathematics since 1968. In St. Andrews he sampled the various golf courses and wrote a textbook on statistics. They're returning in time for their youngest son's wedding this month. He and Janette are considering a move to Hanover when they retire in 7 years.

The May 2000 issue of "Upside" magazine profiled Gib Myers, general partner of the venture capital fund Mayfield Fund, and highlighted the Entrepreneur Foundation, an organization that Gib formed. The foundation gets contributions of a small number of startup shares in fledgling companies and uses the proceeds to fund non-profit organizations in education and youth development. Their first commitment was in November 1999 to a San Francisco organization, Partners in School Innovation, which helps improve student performance at schools in low-income Bay Area communities. The money will be used to hire more full-time teachers to work with AmeriCorps volunteers in continuing-literacy programs. Check out their cool website at www.the-ef.org/front.html.
