EMP-30
Hey fellow
EMP-30ers. Here are some updates about your classmates.
Clayton Salch
is currently employed at the sector headquarters for Motorola
in Schaumburg. He recently spent two years in the United Kingdom.
In his own words, "It was a great experience."
Meanwhile, I spoke
to Jeff Hoye and he is doing very well. Jeff was recently
appointed president of Corus America Inc., which is an Anglo-Dutch
steel producer based in London, with a North American head
office based in Schaumburg, Ill. Corus has had an annual turnover
of $530 million. Also with Jeff's successes, in 2000 he and
wife Carrie built a new house in Palatine, Ill, so they would
be closer to Chicago.
Mike Guerriere
is now the chairman and CEO of a clinical data network
software company in Toronto, Canada.
Greg Cleven,
who is president and chief operating officer of Long Grove
Confectionery Co., had the opportunity last November to dine
with none other than Warren Buffet. Greg reports, "The evening
was exceptional. Of course, given my tight noncompete with
Long Grove Confectionery, I will not be moving to See's Candies
any time in the near future." Greg says he hopes he can bring
Long Grove Confectionery to the levels of profitability and
return on investment that Mr. Buffet has reached with See's.
If you are interested in touring a chocolate manufacturing
facility, Long Grove Confectionery's new tour facility is
now open. Contact Greg at 312.882.7201 or at gcleven@longgrove.com.
Kevin London
is working for Credit Suisse First Boston in Wayne, Pa.,
located west of Philadelphia.
Al Kurzenhauser
is with Primary Power International in Alpena, Mich.
Rod
Drummond has made a job change after 24 years. Rod has
been appointed president of Valenite Inc., a Madison Heights,
Mich.-based manufacturer of industrial cutting tools. Valenite
was acquired by the Swedish company Sandvik in August. Rod
