Jennifer Goldberg ’01: “I finished my first year at
Boston University School of Social Work and have one year to go. I'm
enjoying the program so far. Classes are mostly interesting with good
professors, but I think I got spoiled with the quality of teaching at
Dartmouth. My first year field placement was interesting and
challenging—it was in a residential setting with mental-health clients. This
coming year I'm doing my placement at Brigham and Women's Hospital, which I'm
excited about, as I'd like to end up in a hospital setting after
graduation.”
Jessica Leinwand ’04: “I was recently accepted to
both Harvard and Columbia [law schools], and Columbia offered me their Hamilton
Fellowship, which is a full-tuition scholarship! It is also the chance to study
directly with a faculty mentor and possibly research/publish with them in my
3rd year. I have not heard from Yale yet, but I think I am pretty much decided
on Columbia—they have a great int'l law program.” (7 February 2006

Casey Lozar ’03: “I am currently registering for my second
term at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. My first term (this summer)
was incredibly intense but overwhelmingly satisfying. I took courses on
Adolescent Dev., Race, Class, and Power, Urban Ed., Special Education, and a
methods course. As well as taking these courses I taught Ancient History at the
Cambridge Harvard Summer Academy. It was a busy summer.
I am now doing my pre-practicum in Secondary History in a BPS pilot school,
the Harbor School. It is an awesome environment for a novice teacher, and the
school's social cohesion is impressive. I am really happy with things.
A couple days ago I was reflecting on my Marshall Islands experience (which
I do several times a week) and decided that I needed to go international again
and give my service to the academically needy. In light of December's tsunami
and the consequential havoc reaped on Thailand, I have decided to apply to a
Fulbright Teaching Assistantship to Thailand.” (14 September 2005 e-mail)
Ruthie Shek ’02: “I've recently finished a busy year
of courses and completed my exams here at the London School of Economics.
Before I leave London in August, I will be spending plenty of time at the
National Archives to research for my dissertation on British Hong Kong around
1949-50. It has been very interesting (though I have to say I enjoy
reading actual original documents quite a lot more than reading them on
microfilm).”
Meg Thering ’05: “I survived my first year of law
school [at Columbia]. This summer I'm working for Arkin Kaplan Rice, LLP
in Manhattan. In the fall I'm going to be an editor for the Journal
of Asian Law and a torts TA. I've also been doing pro bono work at
the Humane Society, and my roommates and I are going to be presidents of the
ski club next year.”
Elizabeth Wise ’05: “I am doing a post-bac pre-med
program at American University. It's quite a change from my Dartmouth classes,
but I'm enjoying it.”
