Julia Hammer finished her second year at the University of Oregon where she's getting a Ph.D. in volcanology. Julia hopes to go to Mt. Pinatubo in the Philippines this fall.

After completing a stint with Teach for America, Rob Mascola is at Stanford getting a Masters in Mathematics. Rob wanted me to reassure everyone that he's still pursuing an acting career. After being turned down for a role as a lap dancer in "Showgirls," he's set his sights on landing a guest spot on "My So Called Life." We wish you luck, Rob.

Kiersten Muenchinger is also at Stanford, but as far as I know is not looking for any guest spots on "My So- Called Life." She worked for a Product Development firm in Chicago before heading there this fall to major in New Product Design.

Amy Stericker is taking pre-requisites for a Physical Therapy Masters Degree while working in a VA Hospital's Physical Therapy Department and a Microbrewery - a "fun restaurant" she writes. She lives near the ocean with three roommates and a dog named Sophie. Her green card was postmarked from Long Beach, CA so I'm assuming that's where she lives. (The beach part fits).

Tina Rosenblum is at Cornell getting a Ph.D. in developmental Psychology. She spends her time researching intelligence (her focus is on cognitive development), consulting for the World Bank, camping, hiking, playing tennis and golf, biking 100+ miles around Lake Cayuga, and generally enjoying all of the natural wonders "the area has to offer."

Stephanie Rupp headed off to Africa at the end of June to do research in rain forest conversation in Cameroon as a Fulbright Scholar. In addition to Cameroon, Stephanie will also spend several months in Zaire, working on a project she started in 1994.

After teaching in Indonesia at a University for a year and a half, Roz Emmett has moved back to the US. to begin a Masters program in Education at Columbia University.

Preeti Sinha started Yale's School of Management this fall, after spending the previous two years working at Lehman Brothers in New York.

Brad Simanek has kept himself busy since graduation. He earned an M.B.A., concentration in finance and marketing, with honors from the University of Chicago last spring. After business school he joined a consulting actuarial firm doing interest rate and market analysis and cash flow forecasting for insurance companies and is now starting a business called 'Rezume' which creates resumes, go figure, for students and recent graduates. Peter Deininger graduated with Brad and is working for the Swiss Bank in Chicago. In addition, Brad reports that Jim Keating is working for U.S. Robotics in Chicago, and that Marc Steifman will be attending the U. of C. M.B.A. program this fall.

After getting his Bachelor of Engineering degree from the Thayer School last year, David Krause spent 5 months in Florida as a pilot before heading to Brazil for 5 months to do volunteer work at an orphanage in Brazil. He's now "working on joining the corporate world and would appreciate any help!"

'93s who are pursuing more active careers in athletics include Sue Stuebner, who is the coach of the women's basketball team at Albright College in Reading, PA. She also works in the admissions office. Sue and Renee Reed, who is a coach at Rutgers, continue to root for the Big Green at hoops games across the East. They ran into John Eliot at the University of Virginia. Corinna Knight, she writes, is working hard on a Masters of Art History at the University of Delaware.

Chris Grover did not say anything about himself but managed to give me a lot of information about other '93s. "Adam Heaney spent the winter in Asarna, Sweden training for x-c skiing and learning Swedish. This spring he was third in the "Survival of the Fittest" contest. He also graces the cover of May's issue of SKI magazine. Fellow x-c skiers Carl Swenson and Nina Kemppel (both '92s that graduated in '93, and both members of the U.S. Ski Team) also spent the fall training in Sweden. Kemppel is the national champ this year in the 15 km classic race while Swenson is the national champ in the 15 km freestyle race. Max Rabinowitz spent the winter snowboarding in Juneau, AK and will be attending U. of Washington Med. School this fall. Pete Althausen will enter Tufts Med. School this fall." Thanks for all of the info, Chris.

And all-time Ultimate Frisbee great Chris Onken was in Sante Fe, New Mexico this past summer through Middleburg / Breadloaf. Apparently he organized an Alumni ultimate frisbee team to compete in the Open Regionals but missed competing in it do to an "extraterrestrial experience worthy of an 'X-Files' episode." He sends his apologies to disc goddesses Beth Delehaunty and Amy Hannah who spent 5 hours broken down in Lee, MA before finally making it to the tournament in Albany.

Now, on to the less green pastures of New York City. Or maybe more green depending on how you look at it. Suzanne Moody is working as an Assistant Account Executive at Ammirati and Puris/Lintas Advertising Agency in New York.

Carl McGowan works for Anderson Consulting in the Metropolitan New York area. He writes that he spends his spare time hanging out in Manhattan where he ran into Jeff Baines, Elsa Meharry, and Gary Campbell at a benefit for the Alvin Ailey Dance Troupe.

Heather Deering is still in the Capital Markets group at Goldman Sachs. Angus King, she writes, is working in the Communications Department of the White House.

Larry Cook is living and working in New York. Rumor has it that in his spare time he's working on a book entitled, "The Tao of Fu."

Adam Leader is working for a computer software company that "hawks" derivatives trading and processing software. He's a senior software designer which is "in practice like a researcher, writer, and programmer baby-sitter." He's thinking of grad school somewhere "less smelly than New York."

Out on the other coast, specifically Los Angeles, Beth Krakower is working at MMS USA, a record label, as Director of Radio Promotion. Other '93s residing in L.A. include G. Michael Evans and Jason Bogal who work at a place called Mac (?) as is J. Christopher Bell. Beth tells me that Jeff Middents is at the University of Michigan and Angela Lee is living in NY and working at a doctor's office.

Andy Baker works at William Morris in the New Media Department where he gets to "surf the Internet and play new CD-ROMs. He's hoping that one of the sitcoms or hour-long dramas he's been writing finds its way onto a TV show. He lives with Laurel Deck at "a beautiful place on the ocean" in Marina Del Ray. Laurel is planning to start psychology graduate school next year. Currently, she works for PR Newswire, sending information and news releases across the country.

After driving across the country with Amy Palmer '94, Alexis Templeton is now living in San Francisco where she's trying to get used to city life after Hanover and "driving w/several million *!#? every day with angry cops everywhere." On the trip out west, she and Amy spent a lot of time camping and rock-climbing in Montana and Wyoming.

Laura Thaxter works at a mediation firm in San Francisco, CA. She recently took 3 months off work for some R&R. "I spent most of the time in San Diego enjoying the sunshine and beaches (4 years in Hanover wasn't enough Laura?). Took a few road trips to Disneyland, L.A., Joshua Tree National Park, Big Bear Lake..." Laura reports that fellow '93 Natalie Wiedener lives in Arlington, VA with her fiancee and fellow George Washington Law student Michael Draeger, and that Anne Tisi left the Big Apple for the palm trees of L.A.

Before I have time to think of any corny ER type segways into the group of '93s studying medicine, I'm going to get right to it. Genevieve Noone is in medical school at the University of Pennsylvania, "and loving it," in her own words.

Pam Adelstein is starting her third year of medical school at Albany Medical College. Michael Weissman, reports Pam, is working for Owens Corning in Ohio, completing an engineering internship before attending law school this fall.

Ander Lurie started his third year of medical school at Rush Medical College in Chicago.

Steven Williams is in his second year at Yale Medical School. Outside his hectic medical school schedule (or is the work load a big myth?), Steven keeps busy as a general partner in a small company that will gross over $100K this year - a company first!

Kate Wheeler has finished her second year of medical school at Columbia. In between Boards and her third year she took a two week break to visit her roommate's home in Cypress.

John Rose spent the year slugging it out through clinical rotations and chronic sleep deprivation along with Kevin Courtney and Todd Brady at Duke University School of Medicine. Chris Mero is also at Duke as a Chemistry grad student. After two years studying in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Duke, David Harrild is also attending Duke Medical School. He "hopes to graduate with my M.D./Ph.D. some time before the turn of the millennium -- sadly, that's an ambitious goal."

Mike MacAvoy attends Stanford Medical school and adds "Chris Bahng is studying piano at the University of Texas, Austin."

Cally Gwon is in her third year at Dartmouth Medical School. And Peter Lind is a second year at Columbia Medical School.

I have several Dartmouth '93 weddings to report. Selen Unsal married Charles Knight '92 this past June and July. No, that isn't a typo, she actually had two weddings. In her own words, "since I am Turkish we are having two weddings in two continents - one in Istanbul and one in D.C." Selen has been with J.P. Morgan since graduation. Charles will be studying medicine at Columbia. Kristen Chang sent in her congratulations to the bride and groom, and confirmed the multiple weddings, but made no mention of what she's been up to.

A number of '93s announced their engagements (or their friend's). Jennifer Ebright is planning a June 1996 wedding to John Goff in Pennsylvania. One of the "fearless group living in New York City," though not this past summer which she spent in Connecticut as a research associate, her "primary job" is at Columbia Business School where she plans to receive her M.B.A. in May 1996.

Corinne Gilchrist and Dan Maryland '90 are engaged to be married. They plan a summer of '96 wedding back on the Hanover Plain.

Cynthia Flanagan ended her green card with "who'd of thought I'd be the first bowling nun to tie the knot." I'm not quite sure what that means exactly but I'm sure some people out there do. In any case, she writes that she's engaged, "but not to a Russian." Cynthia has been in St. Petersberg for over a year and a half and is apparently suffering from disc withdrawal. She hopes to start a team with Beth Delehaunty and Amy Hannah (of disk goddess fame), who were scouted by the East German National Team while in Albany for Open Regionals.

One last engagement notice comes from Richard Khoe. He isn't engaged, at least that I know of from his card, but he reports that Rachel Yocum is planning an October '95 wedding. She was studying Philosophy at Georgetown. Richard is working at a government relations consulting firm specializing in trade and foreign investment and writes that Serena Buckman is at Boston University Law, Sam Kim is at his second year at Harvard Divinity School, and Mark Zohn finished his second year at Duke Law .

Annie Edgerton finished a 10 month "touring acting gig," performed in upstate NY this summer, and studied Shakespeare at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art at the end of the summer. This fall she will be acting in New York City. She writes that she's bumped into Greg Schmolka who was at the Bitter End recovering from a wonderful adventure abroad and Scott Mitchell who, in addition to being newly married, was trying to escape from a rat infested apartment.

Laura Denison Howse had a ton of news to report. "I go by my middle name nowadays... still working part time in lithography fine art printshop. Starting my own business line of jewelry. Any buyers? Having lunch with Jeff Hashimoto before he leaves on Outward Bound trip. Saw Dan LeBlanc, alive and well in Snowmass, Chris Seldin, in Boulder, Kate Cudney, Vermont Studio School in summer. Halley Moore still in NYC. Kristy Collins my excellent roommate to be married to an excellent man in September. Direct any doubts to me and I'll squelch 'em. They're a great match. I know because I live with them." There's an excellent endorsement if I've ever seen one.

The law school crowd includes Marinn Carlson who writes that she finished her "first year of law school at Yale, where I see Mike Scodro all the time. Frighteningly enough, I actually like it!" I just have one question Marinn. Is "it" law school or seeing Mike Scodro all the time? Because, knowing Mike, I could imagine seeing him all the time might be frightening. (Sorry Mike). Anyway, Marinn spent the summer in DC working for the Environmental Defense Fund.

John Stanton completed his second year at Georgetown Law. He worked for Howery and Simon in Washington DC this past summer.
