Piper Evans writes: I’m now on my third try living in New York! First Spring 1998 for CITYterm (Dobbs Ferry, but it still counts) then from 2003-2005 (living in Brooklyn and working in Greenwich, CT - I do not recommend this commute) and now again since April 2012. In between those years I’ve lived in Dallas, TX, Chapel Hill, NC, Los Angeles, CA, Evanston, IL, San Francisco, CA, Chicago, IL, and Buenos Aires, Argentina. And there was lots of amazing travel between those! I am now happily working as the CFO of a non-profit: Relay Graduate School of Education. My husband, Yaniv, and I have been married since November 2012. Jane Hamill writes: I’m an artist living and working in Lambertville NJ on an organic farm that was once an orphanage. My husband and I are hoping to have an artist residency on the site someday. My second solo show at J. Cacciola gallery in NYC will open in the fall of next year. Until then I’ll be painting at home while running a small alternative arts’ space called The Project Rooms and raising miniature chickens. Nadea Taylor Kolege writes: I am living in London with my husband where I work as a corporate lawyer for Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP, a New York Based law firm. Leigh Turner McFarlane is living in Houston, TX and is working as a residential realtor. She married Michael McFarlane in 2012 and they have a precious daughter named Poppy! David Meyer writes: I’ve been living in New York now for 11 years, currently in the West Village. I work for The Standard Hotel Company as a Creative Director and Editor of their culture website. Put another way, I am “thoughtfully” gentrifying whilst pining to return to a life of full time fiction writing. Also wondering if I’ll ever pass through Grand Central and here a group of high schoolers counting off. Ben Naimark-Rowse writes: I’m a second year PhD candidate at the Fletcher School at Tufts University in Boston. I’m researching civil resistance and am teaching an undergraduate course this fall called “From Gandhi to the Arab Spring - Theory and Practice of Civil Resistance.” Despite having left NYC I still love it and despite having lived there for seven years I still love the Red Sox! Ana Saldamando writes: I’ve been living in New York since 2001 (CITYterm got me hooked)! Currently I live in Brooklyn. Completed an MFA from Columbia a few years ago in Creative Writing and am working on my first novel. Mimi Stith writes: I’m working on my PhD in Anthropology at Boston University. I recently received a Fulbright Fellowship to complete my doctoral research on resource extraction in Tanzania.

Cara (Seabury) Radzins is still living in Connecticut and working as a transportation planning consultant. She and her husband recently bought a house and adopted a dog. Her latest adventure in NYC included visiting the 9/11 Museum and seeing If/Then on Broadway (a musical about a city planner — what’s better than that?!). Fall 2003: Class agent is Zanny Alter Alyse Ruiz writes: I just joined the CITYterm staff! I’m the Dean of Residential Life living on the third floor.

Mimi Powell writes: I start NYU law in August so to (temporarily) satisfy my wanderlust I’ve been traveling in South America for the past two months.
