Our favorite Dartmouth memory might have to be the time I kidnapped hard-working Jay out of the stacks, blindfolded him, and drove him to Dunkin Donuts for a late-night snack! We got married the summer before our final year, and both graduated in 1990. I ended up at Columbia Medical School and a year later Jay started at NYU Law School. I walked into a small subterranean Rathskeller in Salzburg and my friend said "Hey, there are some Dartmouth kids." And the rest, as they say, is history! We dated through several semesters apart when one of us was on campus and the other off. We met in Salzburg, Austria during a 10-day break in the middle of LSA in Blois (Jay) and FSP in Toulouse (Lali) while we were each traveling with friends. Married in Wellesley, MA, on August 12, 1989 Michael rows with and sits on the board of the Upper Valley Rowing Foundation and coaches Hanover High crew when he’s not taking our dog, Occom, on long walks around town. I have my dream job working with classes in Alumni Relations. We are now busily raising three teenagers in Hanover. My other favorite memory is of Michael doing cartwheels across the Green in broad daylight. We ended up eating dinners together at Courtyard Café (in the Hop) where Michael inevitably bumped the table as he sat or got up (he’s so tall), spilling whatever drink (milk at breakfast, root beer at dinner) was on the table.
Coming off the water late, we often missed the group. Our UGA group was very close-knit and often went to meals together. I was struck by his height (6’6) and his really long toes. Our UGA group was gathered together for pizza. Michael and I met in the basement of Cohen the first day of freshman week. Married at the Dartmouth Outing Club House on October 10, 1992 We have three children: Matt, 17, Caroline, 15, and Abby, 13. I am a lawyer and Karen is a social worker. (Karen clearly knows how to have fun and that’s why she’s good for me!) Karen’s favorite Dartmouth memory is tying a bunch of rafts together and floating down the Connecticut River during sophomore summer. I am still friends with those classmates to this day (and still having heated political debates, but now mostly on Facebook). Our favorite Dartmouth memories are separate ones: Mine all relate to late-night political discussions while hanging out with friends from the Dartmouth Community for Divestment and the Women’s Issues League. What’s your favorite Dartmouth memory together? We were married in Boston on May 20, 2005, the first day that equal marriage was allowed in Massachusetts. We didn’t actually meet until after college, but the fact that we had college friends in common brought us together.
