On March 29 at 3:00 pm Eastern the ’69 Jewish Culture Group will present its next program entitled “Antisemitism on Campus.” Our discussants are old friends to our class, Prof. Susannah Heschel and Rabbi Seth Linfield. Both have given previous presentations.
David Rees Gilliatt '69 left us on October 17, 2025, at his home in Croton-on-Hudson NY, attended by his wife of 49 years, Karen, and daughter Olivia '08. Dave left campus at the end of freshman year to serve with the 1st Cavalry in Vietnam. On his return in September 1968, he threw himself into his music and studies, followed by law school and legal practice. Whatever he pursued, he did so avidly, and over time became an expert Alpine and X-country skier, sailor, windsurfer, archer, and marksman, as well as a cigar aficionado.
Arthur Fergenson reports that Rabbi Arnold (Arnie) Resnicoff, a member of the Class of 1968 who graduated with us in 1969 and has participated with us in multiple in-person and virtual events, will be one of the 48 inaugural recipients of the new Vietnam Veterans Memorial “service beyond service” award, to be celebrated at this year’s Vietnam Veterans Day ceremony, 1:00 pm ET March 29, at the Wall. It will be live-streamed on their Facebook page.

ComingHome Weekend - October 2-3, 2026
In coordination with Dartmouth’s Homecoming
Classmate Sandy Alderson will join us for his second (!) Casual Conversation on Zoom on Sunday, March 15 at 3 pm Eastern Time. The first time he spoke with us about baseball, 48 people were on the video call. This time the subject is baseball again, but with one caveat: “Everything baseball but NOT the Yankees.” For this session, that team is a seven letter word which should be treated as the FCC once upon a time viewed “b-----d.’
On Sunday, March 1 at 2 pm Eastern Time Bracha Horovitz will be our guest for a Casual Conversation on Zoom. Ms.
