A pleasant sidebar to this trip has been the opportunity to see so many of my former students making a living in the big city. In fact, I saw four of my former students during the trip which was quite fun.
Tonight I met up with former 2005-2006 newspaper editors-in-chief Kate Swarbrick and Stuart McWhirter and their right-hand woman from that year, Katie Osborne. Kate and Stuart spent a year as NBC pages and are now employed by the company in different roles. Katie is new to the big city, trying her hand at marketing and continuing her modeling career.
Add to this Max Newman, the former staff funnyman who I watched perform stand-up at the Gotham Comedy Club last week and you have a class of students who are doing big things.
Seeing the kids, now adults, enjoy success makes me a proud papa! More to come. Much more.
