New York City Reunion with "Granddaughter Class" of 2010

Kudos to Jackie Cannon Brown for volunteering the use of  her apartment
in Manhattan for the pioneer off- campus gathering with some members of the class of 2010 who had chosen to live, study, work, or hang out in the area.  Thirteen of the (then) newest graduates met with five of our
classmates to share quiche, salad, wine and stories.

Any “program’ that Nancy and Dana had considered vanished into happy chatter
as the young graduates connected with classmates whom they had never
met before exchanging addresses and experiences.  As we moved from group to group,
one could not help but note the emergence of some common themes.
They missed Mount Holyoke and the close friendships they had formed.
They realized that in the “real world” they were not quite so empowered
as they had had hoped.  Some had read Gail Collins’ book, “When Everything
Changed,” and had mused on the struggles we must have had.  (Recall
that Collins had spoken at their Graduation.).  They wanted to know that there
was a nucleus of Mount Holyoke women nearby.

  Dana Feldshuh Whyte, Sally Bever Zwiebach, Burt
  Susan Barber and Irina Posner met for dinner before
  attending the World Premier of  “Seven” at the
  92nd Street YWCA on Martin Luther King Day.
  This show was the brainchild of Carol Klein Mack.
  The review which follows uses words
  like “riveting, explosive and inspiring.”
  A good time was had by all.
