After attending the Elderhostel program in June, Alice De Rycke Hurst wrote, "It was interesting being back at International House again after so many years. So many changes and yet I felt at home. I was in my old room and saw how desegregation (men and women on the same floor) worked in my corridor. Everyone meets and talks in the hall -- standing, sitting on the floor. I joined them a few times. I like the enlarged Dining Room and the landscaping outside those great windows."
Catherine Fath Sherry (IH 1940-41) chatted with Stefan Riesenfeld at Sunday Supper. Professor Riesenfeld is in his 46th year as a Boalt law professor. Since taking emeritus status in 1976, he has continued to teach almost every semester at Boalt. "I want to make the students aware of future issues -- to have a small feeling of what is coming next." |
Ira Latour, professor emeritus of art history at CSU, Chico, wrote an article on Ansel Adams in the summer '98 issue of History of Photography, Oxford, UK. As part of the National Arts and Humanities Month, he was presented with the City of Chico's Mayor's Award for Achievement in the Arts in Memory of Joseph Kaveny. |
Doris Jones Ralston (left) had a wonderful visit with Joyce Meldrum (right) in Australia. She is "retired from test tubes and culture plates to the care and management of Mara and Nolan who provide me with a lively life-full of the mess and activities of incipient teenagers." To commemorate the achievements of Albert Hirschman, Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study is creating the Albert O. Hirschman Chair in Economics in recognition of his "extraordinary contributions to the understanding of international economics, political economy, and the history of economic thought." Clive Justice and Wanda Peckinpah Justice celebrated the 50th anniversary of their I-House wedding in June at a reception at the Vancouver Unitarian Church. Jean Lamb Benson sends her greetings from New York to "Golden Age" friends. "Ray and I live quietly with plenty of books, music, and conversation about politics and international affairs. I hope to see you all at the next reunion!" |
