Reunion Chair Spotlight
It was an easy “yes” for me to respond to the ask to serve as chair for my 25th Davidson reunion because I have been looking forward to this for years. My son was born the week before our 15th reunion, and COVID interrupted our 20th reunion. I have been fortunate enough to see my closest Davidson friends multiple times a year, but I haven’t seen so many in the broader group in a very long time. I continue to be grateful for how many smart and interesting people Davidson introduced me to, and I cannot wait to see them again in June 2026!
