Dartmouth Class of 1969

Today's issue of The Dartmouth mentions two events we lived through on campus: the George Wallace protest and the Parkhurst takeover:

During the late 1960s at Dartmouth, there were at least two student protests that received national news coverage. While this attention was partly negative, Carini said that some people supported the protests. 

 Having just participated in an illuminating and personally valuable Green Dot session with Peter Elias, learning the fundamentals about effective bystander intervention, it is time to turn to our next Casual Conversation.  Our conversationalist is Robert B. Santulli, M.D.  Dr. Santulli is Honorary Associate Professor of Psychiatry at Geisel School of Medicine and Senior Lecturer in the Dartmouth Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences.   Dr. Santulli was brought to our attention by classmate Peter Schaeffer, who heard Dr.

Paul Tuhus has been providing about an update a week, usually with great photos. His most recent update came yesterday with 8 photos. Here is a link to the photogallery of the DOC House Project, in chronologic order, mostly annotated. It looks as if we will be able to use it over Homecoming on Octob er 8 and 9.

SEE YOU THERE!

Here's a list of upcoming Class activities. Feel free to email me if I am missing something.

On October 13 of this year Rose Mantelmacher will turn 100 years old.  That she has lived that long is notable, but even more significant is what happened 76 years ago when Rose was liberated from Bergen Belson by British troops.  Sick with Typhus, she was unable to eat although suffering from malnutrition and desperately hungry.  That probably saved her life because the troops did not know the proper medical protocols to feed the starving: many of the victims of the Nazi horror died from being allowed to eat as much as they wanted.
 

A special Casual Conversation on Tuesday, May 18 at 5 pm Eastern will feature as our guest the Chair of Dartmouth’s History Department, Professor Cecilia Gaposchkin.  This is the second of our Zoom sessions with Dartmouth faculty, the first being the Jewish Culture Group’s meeting with Jewish Studies Professor Susannah Heschel, daughter of the famed Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel.
 

Here's an article/interview with our own Sandy Alderson in The Dartmouth from today, April 16th.
