Dick Coldren '50 is busy as tournament director for the Midlands Wrestling Tournament
at Northwestern, in which more than 400 amateur wrestlers
compete each December (an event he co-founded), and as a trombone

While
visiting the corporate office of Pepsi in Purchase, N.Y.,
John Nicholson '51, who is retired, encountered fellow
alums Steve Sears '87 and Katie Lacey '93. Steve and Katie
both work in marketing as vice presidents. John reports he
enjoyed his impromptu meeting and conversation about Kellogg,
joking that he had learned in undergrad what Steve and Katie
had learned in graduate school. Their unanimous reply was,
"I don't think so." John's daughter Cynthia is also
a vice president in marketing at Pepsi and works closely with
Steve and Katie.
John
reports that his family has strong Northwestern ties: His
late sister Catherine graduated from Northwestern with a degree
in speech and daughter Catherine earned a master's degree
in journalism in 1984.
Jerome
Lamet '52 checks in with
the following update: "After five years of operation
of Debt Counsel for Seniors and the Disabled, we have established
a new legal service company, Tower Legal Network, with more
than 1,000 new enrolled nationwide clients. We are able to
settle credit card debt at savings of 50 percent of balance
due. This growing enterprise is the only lawyer-operated debt-settle
service in the country."
After
earning her master's degree in hospital administration, Maura

at several health councils. Maura has published a number of
essays in health organization and development for both the
private and public sectors in Venezuela. Most importantly,
she will attend her 50th Kellogg School reunion this year.
