I am living in Memphis, Tennessee and working for the Shelby County School district on the Farm to School program. We build school gardens and use them to get kids excited about eating healthier. In recent years Memphis has been named both the hungriest and fattest city in the US, so we have our work […]

Bill Rubenstein ’74
With two friends from Rome (and a local guide), I just completed a rare 200 mile monsoon trek in the Himalayas. In fact, it seems we were among the first ever to visit the remote and restricted Tsum Valley region during the rainy season. Getting through fifty air miles of, hot, jungle canyon was challenging, […]
Bill Wheeler ’58
“Different places on the face of the earth have different vital effluences, different vibrations, different chemical exhalations, different polarity, with different stars: Call it what you like, but the spirit of place is a great reality.” Well… Ok… that’s a bit overblown, but what do you expect from D.H. Lawrence? But it is true. I […]

While it is never pleasant when one (or many!) of our startups struggles or doesn’t work out, thankfully we get lucky […]
