Examples of real Smith College alumnae notes
Sarah Smith completed medical school at UMass in Worcester and an internal medicine residency at Newton-Wellesley Hospital, and since 1988 has worked as a part-time physician in private practice in the Dover, NH area. Husband Gary is a neurologist; son Jason completed his first year of college; and daughter Sara is in high school. The family is completed by a golden retriever and two cats.
Alexis Jones writes, “Five years after moving back home to Sarasota, I am now a stay-at-home mom to my 2-year-old son, Jack. I’m still not sure how I ended up a housewife, although it probably had a lot to do with my childcare collapsing, my job stagnating, and my husband pursuing a new career. Most times I feel like I’m secretly being filmed for a bad reality show entitled My Mother’s Life. In addition to applying my hard-earned degree to such things as laundry and trips to Target, I’ve been busy managing our outdoor pest infiltration. I am on a first-name basis with the Terminix man. Provoked by exhaustion, humidity, and my toddler’s time-consuming neediness, I recently chopped off all my hair and now bear a startling resemblance to Sheena Easton circa 1983. It saddens me to realize that current Smith students will have no idea who I’m talking about. I love my son, I love being a mom, and most of the time I love my life. Yet I’ve been confounded by choices I never thought I’d have to make. Which makes me think that my personal Reunion slogan could well be – ’15 Years After Smith – What the Hell Happened?’”
