January/February 2012. The 45th Reunion will be October 11-14, 2012. Highlights are listed on the Class web page. Contact Bruce Pacht, the Reunion Chairman, for specifics. Join us. Sam Ostrow shared the news of the College's Class Metrics report; the great class of 1967 is ranked as an Excellent class, the highest ranking possible. Check out the report on the class web page to see what the class reports. George W. Wood of Evergreen, Colorado noted a visit by Steve Cheheyl; they had a great ATV ride in the Colorado High country. George is retired and is former President/CEO at LockerMate Corporation and Senior VP/General Manager at ADC Telecommunications. Though Steve was a newcomer to the ATV world, he became an expert almost immediately; must be his "Green Blood." Bob and Maria Burka of Fairlee, Vermont, shared that Amy and John Isaacs had visited briefly during the summer. Bob noted working courtesy of an emergency back-up generator necessitated by the summer tropical storms. Many Texans prayed for rains; never dreamed it would be the Atlantic coast that would be "so blessed" with deluges. I will be more specific in my requests for precipitation. Charles A. Hobbie of Washington, DC, is the Associate General Counsel at the United States Peace Corps. From 1985 to 2011, he was the Deputy General Counsel at the American Federation of Government Employees. Charles has published “The Time of the Monkey, Rooster, and Dog,” his memoir of his Peace Corps service in Korea during 1969-71. An interesting work, it documents how the people and the nation of Korea evolved. It received a nice review; well done! Michael A. Wolff of St. Louis, Missouri, is a professor of law and the first Director of the Center for the Interdisciplinary Study of Law and Advocacy at the Saint Louis University School of Law. Mike has returned to SLU LAW after serving on the Supreme Court of Missouri (1998 to 2011), which included a term as chief justice (2005-07). Wolff served as chief counsel to Governor Carnahan from January 1993 to August 1994. He was special counsel to the governor from 1994-1998. He was in private practice in St. Louis from 1981 to 1982 working primarily on cases involving health care law, constitutional issues and employment law. Lance Nelson of Rochester, New York, commented on Facebook about the Occupy Wall Street protestors. “Irony. Those who agitate to take money from others are themselves the victims of theft. One downtrodden protestor got his $5,500 Macintosh stolen.” Hank Alrich of Austin, Texas, is also a theft victim. His Red Fender Squier P Bass was stolen out of his car in Austin, Texas. Bummer! Sadly, Daniel Kiang, a retired US Foreign Service officer, died on July 22 at Potomac, MD after a long battle with lung cancer. Born in China, he graduated from the College and Columbia University. He served in the Army Security Agency in Ft. Meade, MD from 1969 to 1972, and joined the U.S. Foreign Service as a political officer in 1979. Daniel spent most of his career in the East Asia and Pacific Bureau of the State Department either in Washington or abroad.
