Greetings from Chicago! Summer has collapsed into fall. 

Over the summer, I had a wonderful time connecting in Boston with Emily Faith Rothman.  Just recently, President Roth was in Chicago for a This is Not a Campaign, This Is Wesleyan event. I met many Chicago-based Wes alumni and caught up with Karen Courtheoux ’05

I did not receive many reports, which may be because we all just had our 30th Reunion. I had a great time and caught up with many classmates!

Our classmates who did reach out:

Robin Shane writes that she has been promoted to associate professor with tenure at Rider University where she teaches costume design and related courses and is developing new curriculum for a theater-making major. Robin visited Lourdes Arista in NYC and also went to Lisbon, Portugal, to visit two housemates from senior year, Peter Chandler and Cristina Crisostomo. Cristina moved to Lisbon, Portugal. Peter was traveling on vacation. Robin has a daughter in her junior year at Brandeis University and a younger daughter who is applying to colleges now. 

Chuck Berger writes that he is working as CEO of the Kimberley Development Commission, based in Kununurra, Western Australia. Chuck is happy to have visitors in the outback, so get in touch with him if you are in the area!

Tanya Bowers writes that she met Jiyoung Lim Gilbreth for lunch in northern Virginia, and Ji convinced her to attend our 30th Reunion. “Emily Rosen held a dinner for us at her home in Larchmont. Max (’92) and Tnyetta (’93) Mitchell and Melissa Woods attended. Bumped into Andrea Harris Smith ’93 in the elevator of the Marriott Marquis that week. 

Reunion was a blast. Read my piece about it on my substack (tanyabowers.substack.com). I experienced major Wesleyan withdrawal afterward.” 

In June, Tanya met up with Rula Geha in San Diego. “In LA we got together with Richard Yu ’92, his wife Taymee, and their son, Quinn, who were in town from Toronto also visiting family.”
