1993 A message from Michelle Litzenberger Trent: In mid-December my husband, David, and I adopted a baby girl and named her Maria Joy. We have been quite busy tending to her every need. We brought her home directly from the hospital 48 hours after her birth. We are thrilled. If we are not yet friends on Facebook, please feel free to send me a Friend request. I can be found on FB as Michelle Litzenberger Trent. I will be resuming part-time work in February.

Derek Reusser; dreusser@ptd.net While in southern India on sabbatical doing scholarly research on tribal history and ecology, Whitney Howarth Nair, Ph.D. met her husbandto-be Sreeraj Nair in the fall of 2012. She was co-awarded a grant to fund her participation in a three year exchange and research project investigating sustainability and indigenous communities in the Western Ghats with faculty at Mahatma Gandhi University in Kottayam, Kerala, India. The trip proved productive on my counts! Whitney has a chapter in an upcoming publication on Kerala History by Orient Black Swan Press entitled “The Adivasi Struggle in Kerala: Culture, Economy and Quest for Land” (edited by Dr. Suresh Jnaneswaran) and in March 2014 she gave birth to her first baby, Pema Parvathy Nair. The Horwarth-Nair family is all settling back-in nicely to life in central New Hampshire, where Whitney has taught Indian history at Plymouth State University for the last ten years. Sree and Pema love the foliage, but are not so sure about the cold!
