Here
we are getting used to life without "every other weekend."
I think I have heard from at least a third of you in the past
two months. Therefore, I know a lot of "potential"
news that will probably be manifested by the time this article
is published, but the rules say no mentions until the fact.
All I can say beyond that is several of our classmates have
been very busy in their personal lives! The one confirmed
fact is that Andrea Kallies is married to very good-looking
Christopher Gray.
On
a professional note, I have heard of three promotions so far.
Do not be shy about tooting your own horns — we all
want to know. John Surane is now president of Skil Power Tool North America for Bosch. Beth
Hayden has been made senior vice president of human resources
at Jones, Lang, LaSalle and is working one floor above Guy.
Hardy Bhatt has been named director of the department of business
and information services for the City of Chicago, which meansbasically
that he is their new CIO.
Finally, Rebekah Barsch
has been promoted to vice president investment product lines
at Northwestern Mutual. Congratulations to all.
Hope
to see you at the reunion on May 5. You can reconnect with
your classmates, jog your memories or just jog (hint to the
running club). Plus, there you can get more up to date information
from everyone, including the latest wisdom from Karl
"The Oracle" Kahn, and witness MB
and AK get thrown out of another bar (you know who
you are).
On
a boring administrative note, if you are not getting e-mails
from me, please send me an e-mail and I will adjust
my e-mail list. Also, I have heard our class has been globetrotting,
and I would love to publish travel pictures. Please send them
to me and I'll put them in an upcoming article. As always,
please call me, e-mail me or even snail-mail me (which is
quaintly endearing by the way) so I can be sure to spread
the news.
