1960s & 1970s Class Notes

Carol Stern Gendel A'67 (HCW) is the president of the San Marcos Community Foundation, a city created grant making organization whose board are appointed by the mayor and city council. She is in her seventh year on the Foundation and second year as president. Working with a $1 million endowment set up in 1987, they have given over 830 grants, valued at almost $2 million, to more than 330 non-profit organizations that serve the San Marcos community.

Of all the community and volunteer activities in which she has participated over her life, this board gives her the most joy and personal satisfaction. Philanthropy, in whatever amount, is profoundly impactful and she is grateful to be able to be an active philanthropist.

Carol resides in San Marcos, CA and is a member of both the Founders' and Rosen Societies.

Lynn Davis A’66 (A&S) has written two memoirs – A Frog Hollow Childhood – a Memoir of Hartford and recently A Memoir of Two Cities – Hartford and Tel Aviv.
