Biddle Duke
A heartfelt thank you to ev-
eryone in our form for your
outstanding participation in
this past year’s Annual Fund.
It was gratifying to see a par-
ticipation rate in excess of 50
percent and
Adam Young
,
SamReid
, and I, along with the
School, are deeply apprecia-
tive. Turning our attention to
our 35th reunion, please save
the date – June 3-5, 2016. To
those of you predisposed to
having a panic attack at the
mere thought of returning to
see formmates you have not
seen in years, I remind you of
the common-sense brilliance
of
George Soule
(perhaps the
closest our form has to the
recently departed Yogi Berra),
who recently commented to
me upon returning from our
Duke 30th reunion, which I did
not attend, “I make a practice
of approaching reunions with
low expectations so I usually
find them worthwhile.” I think
if we keep the expectations
low we all might be pleasantly
surprised by how gratifying it
is to see old friends bonded by
our time together, no matter
how long ago. The plan is for
a welcome-back dinner for all
forms at the Athletic Center
on Friday night and Saturday
night it will be just our form at
the Crumpacker Boathouse for
drinks and dinner, which should
be really fun. I want to see if we
can’t get some of formmates to
do a few TED Talk-style talks,
and maybe
Andrew Binger
can demonstrate the latest in
Western swing dancing. In other
words, stay freakin’ tuned. By
the way, Binger has already
confirmed his attendance. The
hard-working and forward-
thinking folks in the Alumni
Office have reserved a block
of rooms for us at Hampton
Inn. Call now and reserve (603)
224-5322. More info about the
weekend and hotel information:

excited for my son’s last year at
SPS.
Evan ’16
has had an amaz-
ing experience. I will be there
for Family Weekend, a couple
hockey visits, and Gradua-
tion. I look forward to running
intomany SPSers from the 80s.”
Jennifer Groman
shares:
“This past year I took on new
responsibilities at NASA and am
now in charge of the agency’s
construction, energy, and re-
pair/maintenance programs
and policies. The obvious chal-
lenge these days in govern-
ment is doing more with less
and figuring out what are the
essential facilities you want
to keep in the long run, which
you need to overhaul, and what
cool new things you can build
to meet our agency’s diverse
mission needs. I travel a bit and
keep hoping I can bump into
fellow SPSers wherever there
is a NASA location. Always
willing to host SPSers and their
families wanting to visit the D.C.
area. Between my patient hus-
band, Vince Murphy, and me,
we spend our time shuttling son
Keenan and daughter Michaela
to crew practice, voice lessons,
cheer, and Scouts.”

coffee with

visit through Boston from her
current home base in Basel,
Switzerland.

Lisi loved seeing the hockey

we’ll hike by the Pacific.”
