John is now a master gardener and has created several courses that he gives to groups in the area. I like gardening, but I must say it’s really nice to have a resi- dent expert.

man, and both seem happy correspond - ing via e-mail rather than social media. Sallie saw her old roomie Cali Jansen (known at Skidmore as Jan Vyverberg) last year in Orlando, FL. They had a hilar- ious time challenging each other to the most stomach-churning rides at Epcot Center and Universal Studios—“We were kids for a while,” Cali says. A California rancher, Cali is a genuine “horse whis - perer,” performing advanced Reiki and other healing techniques with animals. She has a private practice. Jane Novak Rubenstein retired from


Yale University after 30 years as manager of Yale Health Plan’s pediatrics depart- ment. She now provides complete pedi- atric health care at a magnet school cov- ering preschool through eighth grade in New Haven, CT. Husband Mark is retired. The couple lives in Norwalk. They were back in Saratoga last June for a bridge tournament. In November Nancy Herman Frehling


and Robert made a road trip through Texas, focusing on art, architecture, and barbecue. They met up with Suzanne Delehanty in Austin and drove west to Marfa for three days, where the trio ex - plored interesting art venues. Nancy says, “It was a special trip—not just for art but also for friendship.” After 47 years of wearing my class ring (except for periods when my increased girth did not permit it), I lost it in a gro- cery store in 2012; it fell off due to weight loss. I was planning to buy a replacement

Philadelphia-based artist and pro- fessor Diane Burko has been busy with her painting and photography proj- ect The Politics of Snow, which is all about climate change. In San Francisco, Diane gave an invited paper for a panel on the “communication of science through art” at the American Geophysical Union con- vention of nearly 20,000 earth and space scientists, educators, students, and policy- makers focusing on sustainablility. Last summer she held a one-woman show at the LewAllen Gallery in Santa Fe, NM, and had a photo in Dartmouth’s Hood Mu - seum show Looking Back at Earth: Contem - por ary Environmental Photography. In Janu - ary she joined a research expedition with about 100 people to the Falk lands, South Georgia, and Antarctica, and she’s one of 18 artists selected to take part in the Artic Circle: 2013 expedition this fall with acti - vists and scientists. Diane says, “It’s an exciting year—visiting both poles!” This summer eight of her large photos will be in the Chemical Heritage Foundation’s national show, Sensing Change. Last May Frances Srulowitz enjoyed a glorious week cruising the Greek islands on a small ship. She especially loved Nax os and Amorgos. In August she spent a few days with Martha Nelson Fateman at her home in Berkeley, CA. In November, while attending a bar mitzvah in Saratoga Springs, she saw Sharon Walker Boyd. Martha and Sharon are both “in good health and living active lives,” per Frances. ANN C.

no plans to retire. She still loves her job as a traveling education consultant, teach- ing about conflict resolution and the High Scope curriculum. Her three books about mediating conflict are doing well, and a new video, I Want All the Turns! Conflict Resolution with Young Children, was slated for release this spring. “It has a bul- lying prevention section that I think peo- ple will find helpful,” notes Betsy. She describes her three grandchildren as excel- lent problem-solvers. Barbara Lydecker Crane has settled
