This is our last issue before PAW’s summer break. Hope those of you who made it to our 14th reunion had a blast. (Send pictures!) When we return in the fall, we’ll be in the home stretch to our (gasp!) 15th. Now’s the time to send in news, stories and photos, so that when you run into your freshman-year hallmate under the tent you can say, “That’s right! I read about your marriage/kid/new job/adventure in PAW!” my freshman days in Wilson College wrote with news of her growing family. JAMIE HOOD SHEA sent in this picture of Katie (6), Ellie (4), and baby brother, Charlie, who was born Sept. 2, 2009. Jamie and husband Matthew Shea (Dartmouth ’95) live in Belmont, Mass. Jamie took this year off from teaching history at the Cambridge School of Weston and says that she’s adjusting to life with two school-aged girls and a new baby who throws schedules a bit off-kilter. Fortunately, “Charlie is pretty laid back and is going with the flow,” Jamie writes. AARON GOLD also sends news of a new baby. Aaron and wife Alexis welcomed daughter Layla April 30. While Aaron has been at Highstar Capital, a NYC-based private-equity fund, for some nine years, he calls fatherhood his best achievement yet.
