Here is some great news: Mariann Perseo writes: MARIANN PERSEO and TOM WEIR proudly report that JAMES HUTCHISON graduated, Cum Laude, from the College of the Holy Cross with a B.A. in economics on 5/27/05 in Worcester, MA. After four weeks at home, he will teach math again this summer at Northfield-Mt. Hermon Prep in Northfield, MA. Then after a few (too brief) weeks home again, he will start teaching math in Boston at Boston College High School (and hopefully have found a place to live!) We plan to visit Boston as often as he lets us. ANN and WAYNE PRICE are happy to report that their son, JASON PRICE, (the talented artist), was graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design with a degree in anima- tion. On Memorial Day Weekend, JULIA FRIEND was graduated from Oberlin College where she majored in sociology. Needless to say, her parents, ALAN and ROSALIE FRIEND, are delighted. In May, LIA SUTTON was graduated from Hampshire College in Amherst, MA. Lia is involved in children's creative development and her senior project was a photography exhibit that featured this area of interest. Presently, she has a summer job at an adventure playground in Berkeley, CA. Her mother, CARRIE SUTTON, is very proud of her. Congratulations and best wishes for wonderful futures to all the graduates! If you have news to share, please contact me at 372 Central Park West, #15B, New York, NY 10025; 212-663-6309.
