the political process to take action on it. Mary currently serves as GC’s Development Manager and connected with Justine after participating in Agnes Irwin’s Alumnae Speaker Series during the spring semester. Mary was thrilled to offer this real-world experience to an extremely qualified and dedicated young woman. In her role as a Development Intern, Justine supported all aspects of non-profit fundraising, including two of her specific interests: corporate sponsorships and individual donor research. Justine shares her thoughts on the importance of young people taking action in their communities on the Generation Citizen Blog at www.GenerationCitizen.org/our-blog/. Caleigh Jooste ’05 married Brian Bressler on May 25 in Driftwood, Texas. The couple met in their senior year of high school at an accepted students reception at Wake Forest University. They stayed on for a fifth year to pursue a Master of Arts in management together at Wake Forest University Schools of Business. They currently live in Austin, Texas and are looking forward to where their adventures will take them next! Bridesmaids included Genevieve Jooste ’02 and Charlotte Hamilton ’05.
:: 2005 classmates Giuliana Vetrano, Mimi Wang, Kate Archer, Merriam Mikhail, Katie Zagrabbe and Anita Sellers. Kate Wiber ’06 is starting her first year as an MBA candidate at the Yale School of Management. Lindy Li ’08 went to Dublin, Ireland in April to meet with the former President of Ireland Mary Robinson, former US Vice President Al Gore, the CEO of Unilever Paul Polman, Princess Laurentien of the Netherlands, and several others. The goal of this fifteen-person gathering was to discuss how the private sector could participate in the climate justice dialogue. Lindy’s role is to target universities, in order to generate greater interest at the grassroots level in fossil fuel divestment and more sustainable and healthier sources of fuel. As a follow-up, she will attend One Young World in Johannesburg, South Africa in October, when many young leaders around the world will come together in an effort to solve the world’s challenges, one dream at a time.

Katherine Hauler ’09 graduated from Georgetown University in May 2013 with a BS in Biology of Global Health and a minor in Spanish. She is living in New York City and working at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center as a research study assistant in phase I clinical trials. Nadya Mason ’10 is a senior at University of Pennsylvania this year. In April she celebrated ‘Hey Day,’ a tradition similar to Agnes Irwin’s Changeover Assembly. Right before final exams, juniors wear red shirts, hats and canes to parade down Locust Walk until they reach College Hall. When they arrive at College Hall, President Amy Gutmann recognizes the juniors as the new seniors on campus for the first time. It’s a great Penn tradition and, through all the chaos, Nadya managed to snap a picture with fellow 2010 alumnae. Although she says they lost Elee O’Neill in all the excitement!
