Dartmouth Class of 1969

DREAM, the Dartmouth founded nonprofit that our class is sponsoring, is a finalist in the running for a $100K grant from NRG Gives. The winner is decided by an online public vote that runs through May 19th. Let’s help them win!

You can vote as many times as you’d like here: http://tiny.cc/DREAM100. (Easy to do while watching a show or listening to the radio.)

Steve Adams '69 is mentioned in the books by Dartmouth authors in the most recent DAM.

An interview with Tom Bevan '69 appears in the most recent issue of DAM (which is available online here). Worth reading!

Dimitri Gerakaris '69 sent me a note updating us on the downstream impact of our Class philanthropy grants.

"One of our clearly stated goals of providing funds for Dartmouth student philanthropists is to inculcate the love of philanthropy plus to help them develop the skills to carry on with such work after graduation and well into the rest of their lives.

Dear Classmates,

There is still a chance for those who may want to join a group of Dartmouth classmates for activities in Boston from Wednesday, May 3 to Friday, May 5. For those already registered, this message is redundant.

Our Boston Mini-Reunion is fast approaching. Current attendee names, and details for all the events, will follow below, but the specific questions to which we need answers from new respondents, at your earliest convenience to Andy McLane:

A nice article in the March 10th, 2017 New York Times about Sandy Alderson '69.  An excerpt:
