Some of those dramatic documentary-style public
service announcements delivered on network television in July by young,
recovering drug addicts for Partnership for a Drug-Free America were directed
by freelance film director, producer and editor Cabot Philbrick '86. "As a director I have a lot to say about the visuals," said Philbrick,
who conducted on-camera interviews with one addict's mother and with three
young people who are successes in a drug rehabilitation program. He and another
editor then constructed 11 30-second stories, each with a beginning, middle and
sobering conclusion focusing on marijuana as the doorway to ruptures with
friends and family, dropping out of school, crime and other drugs.
Reunion 96
Class of 1981
Many thanks to Steve Pfaff, Darlene Howland and Lyn Bruen Winter for organizing
our 15th reunion. The reunion committee was so successful that Steve and
Darlene are now engaged to be married at Colby in October. Best of luck to you
both! Steve has served as our class president for the past 10 years and turned
the ropes over to Faith Bramhall Rodenkirk at our reunion dinner on Saturday
night. Our new vice president/Alumni Council member will be Kim Hokanson, and I
will be staying on as secretary, so keep those letters coming in!
Class of 1986
The 10th Reunion of the Class of 1986 was a rousing success with lots of
classmates (80 at last unofficial count) in attendance. We were incredibly
lucky with the weather--although rain was threatening all day Saturday the
showers held off until we were safely inside partying on Saturday night.
