Beverly W. Shaw is one who is “in the know” much of the time. She’s a busy bee and thanks for the “honey,” WORM. Barbara P. Patch is always ready to lend a hand or phone. Rosamond B. Hingston keeps busy, but is there when I need her. Thanks. Pauline W. Merrill and Ruth G. Bolduc keep in touch! Betty R.

Linda Peterson Cook writes “My husband, Don, and I had a chance to visit the campus in August. The changes are amazing, especially the transformation of Russell House and the Hartman Union Building. Somehow the distance between Mary Lyon Hall and Silver Hall seems much shorter now than it did 42 years ago! We appreciated the friendly helpfulness of several people throughout the campus-Jen Johnson, Angela Matthews and Diane Jeffrey. We owe special thanks to Betsy Cheney, who took time from her busy day to give us a tour of Silver Hall and the Hartman Union Building, for catching us up on the activities of some almost forgotten people, and for researching locations of some plaques. My husband and I are enjoying summers at our lakes home in northern Minnesota, spending fall and spring in Iowa while he works at the John Deere dealership, and getting away to Florida or the southwest for a month or two during the winter.” Phyllis Houle Hanley is now enjoying retirement very much.

This year I will be presented the Roger Baldwin Award by the Maine Civil Liberties Union for my work in getting an anti-U.S. Patriot Act resolution passed in Bangor, Maine.

Gina Willey Hutchinson wrote, “It’s time for us to get going on plans for 2005. According to pop culture, today’s 35 is really only 25 so we’ve been out only 25 years and we’re not yet 50. Just because some of us have had our former third graders as student teachers shouldn’t make us forget that once upon a time we were a wild and crazy bunch. … I am hoping we can all get back to a place that was such a huge part of our lives and revive some fun. It was the last carefree part of our lives unless you consider the difficulty of covering our pajamas for classes. In the meantime I wanted to share that if you watch college football and the Bowl Games you have a great chance of seeing what I have been doing over these past 35 years. From teaching came coaching baton twirlers-quite a twist of random fate. … Last summer my team spent 10 days performing in Germany including at Grafenwar Army base for troops arriving and being deployed to Iraq. In February part of the team [competed] at Disney World and marched in the Disney Magic Kingdom Parade. … Some of you may remember that my daughter, Lori, was a week old at graduation. She went on to be the feature twirler at Penn State and is now a pharmaceutical representative in the Philadelphia area. She and her husband, Mark, have two sons, Zachary (5) and Benjamin (3). Being a grandparent is absolutely the best. Being far away from them is the worst. Alisa, second daughter, was feature twirler at Syracuse and after 10 years in Atlanta as a marketing executive transferred to Connecticut with her husband, Aaron. So all the money I save on airline tickets I can spend on the grandchildren. Now let’s hear about what has happened with all of you.”
