Class Notes

Catherine Maiorisi, Douglass College 1960

After I retired from consulting in 2003, I challenged myself to write a novel. I had never written a word of fiction before, but eighteen months later, I had a full manuscript for my first mystery. In February 2025, Blood of the Innocents, the fifth book in the NYPD Detective Chiara Corelli Mystery Series, was published. In between writing the mysteries, I published five romances, a general fiction and multiple mystery and romance short stories. Two of my books have won GOLDIE awards, and many others have been finalists for various awards.

Edward Blaufuss, College of Engineering 1961 

We are sad to announce the passing of Edward Blaufuss on February 23rd, 2024. His obituary can be found here. https://www.whitneymurphyfuneralhome.com/obituaries/edward-blaufuss

Michael Goodkind, College of Engineering 1965 

We sold our Fractional Share apartment in Paris in February 2024. On the good(kind) side, we still managed to use the apartment in March because the new owners couldn't arrange their travel for that time slot. The visit highlighted the not-so-good(kind) side, our seller's remorse. So, we rented an apartment from the same company that managed our previous apartment and were back in Paris in January 2025. We had an enjoyable time, even though it rained for most of the time there. We are thinking about going back for Christmas 2025, but haven't made any real plans yet. Other than thinking about Paris (friends, baguettes, cookies, croissants/cookies, and other delights, we are still involved in our OLLI adult education program, the Chicago Symphony, the Chicago Yacht Club (a great Valentine's Day dinner) and celebrating friends entering the Octogenarian cohort (it took me several tries to get that spelling right). Hello to all of our classmates who have made it this far and best wishes for continued success in getting older!

Carl Woodward, Rutgers College 1965, School of Law, Newark 1969 

All is well in the Woodward household. While I'm not fully retired, I find that activities with NGOs provide a very satisfying level of satisfaction. Kathy and I are particularly involved in environmental and public lands issues, particularly with National Wildlife Refuges. Our grandchildren are growing, with two in college, one in high school, and one who is almost 20 months old. In February, we took a short trip to Florida, including a couple of days with our stellar Class Correspondent and his wife, Chuck, and Rita Hennings. It was a delightful time. We are excited to see the return of Class Notes. They are a valuable means of staying in touch. So, please send in your experiences. We'd love to learn how you are doing.

Chuck Hennings, Rutgers College 1965 

My lower back pain, unrelieved by meds, was cured with an epidural shot allowing me to play golf again. That pleased my partners as they had missed taking my money. And after living in Brevard County FL for 7 years, I finally visited the Brevard Zoo feeding giraffes and kangaroos. A terrific experience and zoo! We also adopted our 4th dog whose owner didn't survive a traffic accident. Had a great visit from roomie Carl Woodward and Kathy in February. We’d hoped for a better basketball season but it was still fun watching Bailey and Harper with their outstanding play.

Fred Simon, Rutgers College 1965

A fond hi to my classmates. Hong and I have been retired in Surprise, AZ, since 2012. Golfing, lap swimming, and biking still. Gotta keep moving. Did a cruise with our son to Antarctica and South America in December and January. Stunningly beautiful vistas and wildlife. Love those penguins. We continue to be inspired by the sights, history (albeit remarkably short), and cultures in this gorgeous state. Last week we took Navajo-guided tours of Antelope Canyon in Page, AZ, and Canyon de Chelly in Chinle, AZ. 

Glen Canyon and Grand Staircase Escalante at sundown are breathtaking- truly purple mountain majesty plus. Still sharing nostalgic RU memories with Phi Sig brothers Jim Beckwith and Dan Rothberg. Sadly we lost Roger Kirschen. Will really miss him. 

Best wishes to all my classmates!

Harvey Kohn, Rutgers College 1965 

Was off to Spain for 2 weeks on 3/15/2025. My last visit was in 1970 when I was a medical intern and was given 2 weeks off for a vacation. It was then my first trip out of the continental USA. Spain was then considered a great inexpensive vacation with a mid-grade hotel costing $10/nite. Franco was still in charge, and there was martial law in effect. Secret police were everywhere then, and our passports were constantly checked while traveling by rail, and even in Madrid. I am certain that the tourist atmosphere is currently more inviting, while the cost of a vacation has soared. Taking American Airlines with an expected full flight, while in 1970, traveled by TAP to Lisbon and on to Madrid with only 3 passengers for the transatlantic flight. Will report back next alumni update with more details of this current trip.

Bill Lewers, Rutgers College 1965 

I continue to do seasonal work for the Office of Elections in Fairfax County, Virginia. 2025 is a big year as the voting machines that have been in use for 10 years have been retired and are being replaced by the next generation of voting equipment. March was an especially busy month as the new machines are undergoing the rigor of an "acceptance test." My latest novel "Murder at the Polls" was published last fall and continues to be popular among "election nerds."

Michael Perlin, Rutgers College 1966 

Although I’ve been retired for almost a decade (from my teaching job at New York Law School), I’m still doing lots – writing books and articles (about mental disability law, criminal law and procedure, international human rights law), as well as playing the clarinet (in two community symphonic concert bands), birding (recently glossy ibis in Cape May), and, the best, spending time with our kids and grandkids (in NYC and Boston). And this: in what may be my final pro bono case, I have just received notice of a victory before the UN Human Rights Council’s Working Group on Arbitrary Detention on an appeal by a Uzbekistan citizen who has been locked in a psychiatric hospital for some years as a result of speaking up (via a blog) against Putin. That Council ruled that the deprivation of liberty in that case contravened multiple articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Here's the press release that tells more about the case: https://www.uzbekforum.org/uzbekistan-free-blogger-from-forced-psychiatric-detention-un-experts-call-for-immediate-release-from-arbitrary-detention-compensation/.

Larry Klein, Rutgers College 1966 

I'm now living in Paris, France for ten-plus months per year with my partner Eddie. We travel a great deal, mostly to Western Europe. In March, it was Stockholm for six days; in January, was Verona and Milan for two weeks. April will be a return to San Francisco to do my U.S. taxes as well as a trip to Albuquerque, Mesa Verde, and Chaco Canyon. Given that we both dislike group travel, much of my retirement time is spent carefully planning "unguided" travel. It takes more effort, but we find it more rewarding.

Steven Weiner, College of Engineering 1966 

I am getting close to completing my ninth year as an in-classroom volunteer at Gaithersburg (MD) Middle School. I still have not graduated from the sixth grade. Maybe next year! 

In an English class, the students recently studied a text from Jackie Robinson's autobiography, I Never Had It Made. Sixth graders analyze written text and summarize their conclusions, a lifetime skill of immense importance. Mr. Steve often says that writing is just one paragraph at a time. 

I recently conducted a class that focused on Robinson's steal of home in the first game of the 1955 World Series (In fact, I was in the sixth grade!). An excellent video narrated by Doug Glanville served to analyze the steal and capture the larger meaning of what Robinson accomplished in his lifetime. 

At the end of the class, I presented each student with a Jackie Robinson baseball card. You would have thought I handed them a bar of gold!

James Grayson, Rutgers College 1966 

My wife, Ruth, and I are still living in the same Sheffield, UK, house that we bought when I became a professor at the University of Sheffield in 1987. Academically, I have presented conference papers, published articles in professional journals, and organized conferences. Last year, I jointly organized a conference on "Soundscapes and Folklore in East Asia." Unfortunately, I tripped upon entering the hotel in London and broke my right femur. That fall required a total replacement of my right hip. However, I am now walking the family dog, going to shops without a cane, and taking the bus downtown without assistance. As a retired Methodist minister, I continue to preach regularly and lead various Biblical and theological study groups in addition to my academic work. My younger son, Chris, has a daughter, Emily, who is now 9-1/2 years old. Elder son Andy has just welcomed his first child, Nyla, giving me and Ruth a second grand-daughter. We are both still in good health and are enjoying life in Sheffield now that I am almost fully recovered from his fall.

Paul Hetzel, Rutgers College 1966, NJ College of Medicine & Dentistry 1970

I can still vividly remember the summer night I received a phone call from John Sorrentino, a soon-to-be senior, asking me to organize my soon-to-be junior class as volunteers in the planned Family Health Center. We met in the basement of the then-Maryland Hospital on a weekly basis. We were staffed by third and fourth-year medical students and third-year nursing students. One faculty member oversaw our activities. We were used to hands-on patient care, for as memory serves me, there were few medical house staff at Maryland in those days, and we, as fourth-year students, were the first responders. It was our first exposure to outpatient medicine. It was there I met a nursing student who was to become my wife. It is heartwarming to hear the clinic continues to thrive.

Mary Pat and I are enjoying interacting with our 2 grandsons whenever we have a chance. Just took the 4 1/2 year old to Disneyland. A fun time for all. On a sad note, my roommate, Georges Schak, passed away this past August. He was a dear friend.

James Cuviello, Rutgers College 1969

Frederick Perkins, Rutgers College 1970 

I had planned to attend my 50th reunion in 2020, but the COVID pandemic became a problem. I hope to make it to our 55th. 

I have had a busy 55 years. After I graduated I went to Medical School (Univ. of Vermont), completed a residency (Univ. of Iowa), and did a fellowship (NIH, Bethesda, MD). I then had a career as an academic physician (Univ. of Vermont '80 - '89, Univ. of Rochester '89 - '00, Dartmouth '00 - '18). My wife and I have remained in Hanover, NH since my retirement in 2018. I hope to see some classmates from that now long ago time of our college years.

Jorge del Castillo, Rutgers College 1970 

A number of us who were in ZBT class of '70, have been getting together since graduation and have attended many reunions over the years. We are planning on attending in September for our 55th. There are about 10 or more of us. We were cheated out of the big 50th due to the COVID scourge, and the "makeup" reunion was not feasible for many of us. On a sad note, we lost one of our dearest friends and "brother' this past year. David R. Maizel was a retired Family Medicine physician living in Virginia Beach with his wife Honey. Dave was known and respected by many as a member of the IFC and other campus organizations. We look forward to seeing some of the class of '70 on campus in September.

We quickly discovered that we were from bordering towns, and we both had gone to his high school’s senior prom. We got to know each other by walking to our classes in Voorhees Mall, playing tennis behind our dorm in Deiner Park, and going on late-night trips to get gyros from the grease trucks on College Ave. Our first date was on campus at Old Man Rafferty’s in October of 1987.

Tatyana Patel, University College - Camden 2012

Growing up in a lower-middle-class family in Bulgaria, it was somewhat hard for me to set long-term goals and have big dreams even though my future was often on my mind during calm times of my day. Luckily, my circumstances allowed me to discover the broad world of education. Fast forward to age 28, I graduated with a BA degree in psychology from Rutgers Camden, and after a year of reflection, I went on to graduate school earning an MSW degree. Academia inspired me to pursue goals I did not imagine and pay it forward to my community and my own children. I credit RUC education for the transformational processes I experienced, and for that, I have a better quality of life, self-fulfillment, and a sense of belonging and gratitude to the world around me. RUC has a special place in my heart because it is tied to my family, where my husband is an alumnus, and my firstborn child is a freshman. I am positive this will not be my last connection to the Rutgers community. Together (with my RUC family) I have been able to expand my horizons and cultural experiences either through the classes I attended or the events and truly remarkable empowering people I met. The most exciting thing I would like to highlight in this class note is that everyone has their own measure of success and mine is being able to be on this journey called life with my family and with my pride of being a Rutgers alumni.
