Hi Everyone -

Sorry for the short notice for those of you who weren't Poli Sci majors. There's an alumni event this coming Wed, 8/18, that some of you may be interested in even if you weren't Poli Sci. Details below.

Although it was great that PHEEIA did not pass, nothing else passed either pending a new compromise in the fall, so the U is in really dire straights. They're giving pink slips and making plans to consolidate departments which means even tenured faculty can be given the boot. So in the meantime, alumni from different majors are doing lots of little things to bring in any kinds of donations. While I would normally say don't give a major donation unless it's to something that matters to you and definitely not to the general fund - this event is not that! Unfortunately because I wasn't a Poli Sci major I just heard about it - but if you're in the hood...

Alumnus Ary Rosenbaum is co-hosting a get together in the Wang Center this Wed, 8/18, from 6-8pm. Only $10 plus a cash bar! While it's geared to Poli Sci, it will be lawyer heaven too, and an awful lot of us took lots of Poli Sci classes (I took 3 just with Koppelman) even if we weren't majors. So come have something to eat - we can hang out for awhile - you can see how they have corrupted the beautiful Wang Center with this ugly Brook Alumni
Room - we can harass them about their once again horrible Fallfest plans - whatever! Always a good time when old Polity people get together!

Send me an email if you're coming - jam...@gmail.com .

Take care,
JoAnne

Unfortunately Wednesday is not a good day for me.  I am in a traning class for work every day this week in Manhattan.  I don't get home until 7:00 if things go smoothly and with the LIRR you never know.

-Jay

The train comes in right on campus Jay so in 5 minutes you'll be at the Wang Center for the last hour, and you know these things, it will run late. Chris Fairhall is up from DC and will try to get out of whatever Lisa has planned for him if enough of us will go - though given that Lisa is a lawyer and an alumn too, you should get her to come too Chris! And Mace, you are always sending FB messages for nights out so where are you?

Supposedly a lot of the faculty will be there too. Chris and I were talking about some of them today. We both had Koppelman. He is who called President Marburger to get me back in the first time I was thrown out when we started NYPIRG. And Frank Meyer is still teaching! I thought he was old when I was a student.

The Alumni Association would kill to have YOU come back! But alumni would never get a chance to talk to you with all the Advancement people hovering over begging and pleading - "Give us your fortune Babak..."

JoAnne, thanks for letting me know about this. Unfortunately, I can’t make it. Barbara and I will be on eastern Long Island a few days after this, but I can’t get there Wednesday…

 

I hope to see you this fall. Will there be some kind of truncated Wolfstock this year, or is it the victim of budget cuts?

 

Best,

Bill

Thanks JoAnne,

I can't make it either as I'll be on vacation next week and need to clean up loose ends beforehand.
Regards,
JSP

Will Try to make it - still unfragging from Al's funeral, etc.

Note: As a Pol Sci alum from the days Tursky and Lodge were trying to
make *everything* behaviorist + a campaign spent on the road, mainly
with Carville & Begala + 30 years in the newswriting-analysis of
statistics biz: Googlegroups is Very EVIL, no matter what the company
claims. The members on this list, and this e-mail will, under the
Google-Doubleclick "privacy" statement, be placed in our little files.
Orwell was wrong on two things: The computer power for Big Brother did
not exist until 20 years after his prediction, and it is the capitalists
who have become him.

Let's keep the lists elsewhere! As soon as my mail program is free of
unwanted daemons and bugs, I'll even handle it for you - (The NP2RS
Privacy Policy - After mail is sent, it is wiped)

NP2RS Associates - the initials of the guys in the smoke-filled Harpo
Marx College the day we decided that we'd call ourselves WTP Associates
- name changed when an American Nazi group stole it (I still don't
remember why we didn't trademark it, probably cash)...

... Is saddened to announce the sudden and unexpected death of founder
Albert Schubert earlier this month - cause yet to be determined, but it
appears to have been caused by bad anesthesia weakening a great heart.

And the unfortunate, but long-expected death of Founder Lawrence Piovano
after an eight-year battle with a terrible cancer.

We had time to speak to Larry before his passing - My last conversation
with Al came hours before his death - making plans for a visit this past
Sunday.

Sorry, I have two clients that both want me full time with them all this week. Makes for an intense schedule, to put it mildly.  If I can clone myself by tomorrow, I promise I'll make an extra third and send that one over, otherwise...
:(

Wish I could be there to show support.  I'm there in spirit. Good luck with everything!
:)

Hey, Tracey!  Missed you last year!
Sorry to everyone, but I can't swing it on short notice, although, goodness knows, I could use the opportunity to network with lawyers.  It's a desert out there in the job market!
I'll miss the company. Have fun.

HI Joanne,

   I hope you are doing well.

   Given all the response and our uncertain times, I think it would be a great idea if we (on your email list and maybe the statesman/press etc.  list as well) had a get together this fall (with or without alumni sanction) and on alumni weekend or on another date. Maybe we could also have a little program of some sort.

   What do people think?

   It could be a good and special thing.

   All the best,

   Len Mell
