Candidates announced for 2008 Association of Alumni election
The candidates for the annual
election of Dartmouth Association of Alumni officers and Executive
Committee members have been announced.
Alumni will be asked to elect a president, first vice president, second vice
president, secretary-treasurer, and seven committee members of the association.
The election runs from April 28 through June 5, 2008. There are 22 candidates
running on two different slates. The first set of 11 candidates was nominated
by the Nominating Committee of the association, and the second set was
nominated by petition.
All alumni are members of the Association of Alumni, which was founded in
1854. Since the formation in 1913 of the Dartmouth Alumni Council, the
association’s primary responsibilities have been to run its annual meeting and
to oversee balloting among the alumni to select alumni-nominated Trustee
candidates for the Dartmouth College Board of Trustees.
In 2006, the Association Executive Committee voted to permit all-media
voting in Association of Alumni elections (voting was previously restricted to
alumni attending the association’s annual meeting in Hanover). This year’s
election will be the second alumni-wide association vote ever held.
The nominated slate of candidates includes:
- President: John H. Mathias Jr. ’69
- First Vice President: Cheryl A. Bascomb ’82
- Second Vice President: Douglas H. Keare ’56, Thayer ’57, Tuck ’57
- Secretary-Treasurer: David P. Spalding ’76
- Executive Committee members: Marian Zischke Baldauf ’84, Veree
Hawkins Brown ’93, John S. Engelman ’68, Ronald G. Harris ’71, Kaitlin
Jaxheimer ’05, Otho E. Kerr III ’79, and Ronald B. Schram ’64
The petition slate of candidates includes:
- President: J. Michael Murphy ’61
- First Vice President: Martin R. Boles ’80

Hafer ’99; Alexander X. Mooney ’93; Richard Roberts ’83; John Steel ’54; and
Charles J. Urstadt ’49, Tuck ’51.
All Dartmouth alumni are eligible to vote. Alumni will receive a printed
ballot at the end of April and can vote by mail or online. Voting will also be
available to alumni who attend the annual meeting in Hanover, New Hampshire, on
June 10.
