BUT FIRST - PAY YOUR $50 TAX-DEDUCTIBLE 2023 CLASS DUES !!!
*REMEMBER - CLASS DUES ARE COMPLETELY SEPARATE FROM ANNUAL GIVING! Dues not only constitute a pledge of your continuing membership and engagement in the Class of 1986, but they also subsidize off-year Reunions events, both in person and virtually, both in Princeton and around the globe. They also help us to include classmates who might otherwise be unable to go back to "the best old place of all".
The matching challenge may be over, but it's never too late to pay your dues. We will continue to go green, so no more dues requests in the mail. Please take a moment to pay your $50 tax deductible class dues. Just sign in to the class website and click Class Dues.
If you prefer to mail a check, make it payable to Princeton Class of 1986 and mail to Els Paine, 415 Ridgeview Road, Princeton, NJ 08540
AND SECOND - UPDATE YOUR TIGERNET PROFILE!!!
We send all Class communications through Tigernet 2.0, so if you would like to receive them at a different email address, or change your subscription settings, you must make the changes HERE yourself. Unfortunately, we can't do it for you.
We're always looking for fun facts about classmates for Class Notes in the PAW. Please let us know if you have something unusual, exciting, or noteworthy going on in your life! You can submit news HERE.

Climate Summit Follow Up
Our Second Annual Virtual Climate Summit:"Turning the Tide" was a huge success!!
On Sunday, November 12, over 100 Tigers joined us for a conversation with Professor Elke Weber (Professor of Psychology & Public Affairs; Gerhard R. Andlinger Professor in Energy & the Environment) followed by seven breakout sessions led by our extraordinary classmates and peers. The response was amazing, and we plan to continue this kind of programming in the coming years.
For more information - including the full program from the event, further resources, articles, and reports - please click HERE.
From our Environmental Sustainability Chair ...
Thank you to those of you who attended the Class of 1986 Climate Summit Turning the Tide. We were thrilled that so many Tigers showed up to discuss this important topic, and that among the 106 participants, we had alumni from the early 70's through the Great Class of 2026! We would like to extend special thanks to Anni Tilt, Carl Walsh, Carlos Rufin, Charles Wohlforth, Jim Waltman, David Antonioli, Kata Burns, Leila Philip, Lynne Archibald '87, and Todd Laurence for offering their expertise and insights on this critical topic. We left with a glimmer of applied hope that the climate crisis can be addressed through collective action, innovation, and behavior change.
If you are looking for recordings, and copies of the presentations, please be patient while our volunteers collate, clip, and edit the voluminous output from the conference. We'll be in touch.
We look forward to seeing you at the next one. If you would like to join a committee supporting future '86 climate events, please email me at ikeeks@gmail.com.
If you are interested in collaboration on climate solutions with other alumni and faculty you may want to join the Princeton Pollinators. The goal of the group is to "connect the talents and experiences of Princeton alumni and experts with scholars who are working towards a sustainable future." Email me or David Stewart at jdavidstewart11@gmail.com and we will send you an invite to the Slack workspace.
Kind regards, Kiku Loomis '86

Upcoming Regional Events - New York City and Boston
Join Leslie Tucker '86 and Henry Horenstein (working photographer and Rhode Island School of Design alumnus - where he also serves as Professor of Photography) to learn about their new book, We Sort of People.
Photographer Henry Horenstein and Leslie Tucker began working together in 1997 when Tucker invited Horenstein to Maryland to document her family. The project started as a genealogical search for a family whose roots stretched back to the early 1700s and the founding of the first Catholic colony. It grew into a mystery about the multi-ethnic origins of America, and became a race against time and preservation as the Wesorts (we sort of people) and their descendants slowly passed away. Henry took the pictures and Leslie interviewed remaining Wesorts. The project is a reimagined Let Us Praise Famous Men (James Agee/Walker Evans), except Leslie's people are not simply reported about; they speak for themselves.
