I am writing our first Class Notes a few days after Homecoming. It was so nice to see so many people over the weekend, and I've enjoyed hearing about the interesting things everyone is doing. If you missed Homecoming, I'm happy to report that everyone I saw was doing well, and no one has gotten fat! I thought I'd break the Class Notes down by location, starting with New York City, because that is where our fearless president is reporting. Jake Scneider writes, "The Class of 2004 New York alumni are surprisingly employed and enjoying their time in the Big Apple. Shortly after graduation about 20 '04ers participated in the Alumni Boat Cruise. In mid-September, our C lass met up at Dorian's (an uptown ,

very Trinity bar) to catch up over beers served by a few Trin professors. A few of us young alunmi attended Hillel's visit to the Museum of Jewish H eritage in October. Despite being torn over the Yankees-Red Sox series, the New York City '04ers are keeping busy and in touch with one another. So far, no one has gotten engaged, but a few have adopted puppies." Hadley Rogers, Katie Ward, and Sarah Stern all live in the same building. Hadley is working at Tibi as an assistant to a designer. Amy Fleischer writes, " I am working for a small nonprofit in Morristown, NJ, doing marketing and events planning. 1 have my own apartment and go into the city often to see Anne Huser, Rachael Stone, Dana Viltz, Jessie Richardson, Hascy Alford, and tons of other Trinners who live in NYC. I love my job and could not be happier!" Evan Uhlick writes, "Before moving into NYC this September, I took some time off after graduation and spent my days in the H amptons, Newport, and, for a while, the Bahamas. Now, I am living on 34th and 1st with John Lawrence and Andy Kennedy. I work at Credit Suisse First Boston as an analyst in their credit risk management department. I have continued to shoot competiti vely and have begun to run in marathons. I am going to Palm Beach for Christmas. There is a very substantial number ofTrinity grads that I see-too many to list-but we're having a hell of a time." Lindsay Aquilina is currently working at a company called BlackRock Financial Management as an analyst. Adam Bragar is working for Mathematica. Maisie Lynch is teaching at the Birch Wathen Lenox School in Manhattan. She writes, " I am an assistant in the fourth grade and also for the ninth grade art history class. It has been lots of fun, but challenging, as well. Before this job, 1 looked at teaching in a very different way, never thinking what our teachers had to deal with on a daily basis. It is very interesting to look at things on the other side. I am getting used to the early mornings, once again, but the kids do wear me out! I have to say, though, it is an incredibly rewarding job. I have seen quite a few Trinity friends and am hoping that as I settle more into my job, I will be able to spend even more time with them." Jill Nelsen is in NYC, living with some friends from high school and working for Shearman & Sterling in the mergers and acquisitions department. Cindy Molina writes that she has been working at William Grady Vocational High School in Brooklyn, NY, as an advocate counselor through Good Shepherd Services. She writes, "The program is focused on attendance-improvement/ drop-out prevention of freshmen and freshm.an holdovers. The kids are great, and I love my jobl" She also works part-time at Barnes & Noble and is planning on applying to various graduate schools in the New York area for school counseling or an MSW. In Boston, a lot of members of our Class are up to their usual tricks. Max Riffin is attending B.U. Law School. He is excited by the new challenges law school presents, but he is more excited by the fact that Boston University Law School isn't far from its undergraduate department, providing him with three more years of freshman girls. He sees a lot of Adam Selby and occasionally runs into Amy Barry who is attending New England Law School. Also attending law school in Boston are Lauren McDowell, Caitlin Dale, and Robert Stetson who are all first years at Suffolk University Law School. Lauren writes that she is living in Beacon Hill and sees a lot of Marisa Traniello and her roommate, Joanna Crean , as well as Laura
