Focus on the Farm Bill
Claire Kelloway ’16 won a James Beard Media Award in June for her contribution to the Food & Environment Reporting Network series, “The Farm Bill Fight,” published by Mother Jones. Her piece, “The farm bill hall of shame,” looked at the historical context—from racist policies that prohibited full participation in agriculture by Black farmers to partisan attempts to use the bill to hinder farmers in addressing climate change—of this ever-contentious legislation. Program manager for fair food and farming systems at the Open Markets Institute, Kelloway and two network colleagues won in the Columns and Newsletters category.

BILL BUFFETT ’55, Arlington, Mass., wrote, “I’m 92. Old people seldom find something new to do. But The New York Times recently suggested one. It’s simple: write out in longhand the United States Constitution. It’s like taking high school Civics again. I could say more, but I need to return to Article IV, Section 2.”
JON KAUFMAN ’66, Berkeley, Calif., wrote, “After 40 years as a public affairs consultant helping clients work with government agencies and addressing their public policy problems, I have become involved in issues of interest to me. Three years working with local city and county officials and community leadership has resulted in formation of the East Bay Wildfire Coalition of Governments. We are coordinating efforts and taking action to prevent wildfire throughout the region, and not just city by city. The wheels of government can be turned—if ever so slowly.”
LUCY LEFREN STEINER ’69, Easton, Pa., wrote, “Michael Steiner ’69 has published an essay, ‘Paul Wellstone and the Reshaping of Minnesota’s Populist-Progressive Tradition,’ in an anthology, The Liberal Heartland: A Political History of the Postwar American Midwest (University Press of Kansas, 2025).”
STARR TOMCZAK ’69, New York, wrote, “Amid a long career as a corporate lawyer, I went to Union Theological Seminary and wrote Living Well: Inspired by the Story behind the Bible (Cascade Books, 2024). Living Well draws on the latest research about the Bible’s origins to inspire the personal lives of people today. From Genesis to Deuteronomy, Living Well connects each biblical story to our personal experiences by considering Jewish, Christian, and secular views; historical and social science perspectives; and personal narrative.”
CARLOS R. GONZALES ’77, Patagonia, Ariz., wrote, “As I pursue the end of my career as a physician, I have been provided with several honors: I am now associate dean of Indigenous affairs at the University of Arizona College of Health Sciences; I have been honored to be chosen to be part of the Standing Committee on Primary Care for the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, and I am also the chair-elect; and in April I became the chair of the American Board of Family Medicine. These are all great honors.”
STEPHEN GALLAGHER ’82, Stroudsburg, Pa., wrote, “I was delighted to find early work of Professor Emeritus John Schott included in the exhibition The ’70s Lens: Reimagining Documentary Photography at the National Gallery of Art.”
“Encountering The New Century Hymnal at the Carleton College chapel, working as a chapel assistant with Rev. Carolyn Fure-Slocum ’82, and majoring in religion were some of the first steps that led me towards a career of ministry and now hymn writing. I’m happy to share that GIA Publications has just released my collection of hymns, Elemental Joy, full of texts on themes of justice and inclusion set to both old and new tunes.”
—Hannah C. Brown ’02
DAVID GERDES ’86, Cleveland Heights, Ohio, wrote, “After nearly 27 years on the faculty of the University of Michigan, as of March 1, I’ve started a new position as dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Case Western Reserve University. In this role, I lead 21 departments across the college in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and the performing arts, along with programs and centers including the Baker-Nord Institute for the Humanities, the Schubert Center for Child Studies, the Baker-Nord Emerging Scholars Program, the Dittrick Medical History Center and the Leonard Gelfand STEM Center.”
JEFF KOUBA ’88, Blaine, Minn., wrote, “My daughter got married earlier this year. It’s a big change not having her living with us anymore. John will still be living with us for a while though. He is working part time, but his autism is a factor in making it difficult to pursue a long-term career and independent living. My wife is nearing retirement. I have a ways to go yet, but it seems like madness even to be thinking about retirement. Wasn’t it just yesterday we were running around campus together?!”
“As I walked through the tall grass, I saw a small weathered rose-and-beige headstone with a shield engraved on it and the following inscription, S. Christopher, Co. E., U.S.C.I., which referred to the United States Colored Infantry, the Black men who enlisted in the Union Army and won their freedom. . . . I was in shock. Right next to me lay the remains of a man I had wondered about since hearing his African name as a child. I was confronting history that no one in the family knew anything about.”

RICHARD ALLEN GREENE ’91, London, England, wrote, “I won an Emmy for my part in CNN breaking news coverage of the Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, when I was CNN Jerusalem bureau chief. It’s my second news Emmy.”

- Ann Dahlen Bakkensen ’74, Portland, Ore., wrote, “In March, Karen Larson ’74 and I traveled to the Bocas del Toro province in NW Panama to join a birding tour. The Bocas region, visited by Columbus in 1502, is relatively undeveloped and is very much a Third World destination. With our two Panamanian guides, we explored cloud forests, mangrove lagoons, and numerous habitats in between. Thank you, Carleton, for instilling in us a lifelong love of learning and growth, as well as providing the opportunity to launch our lifelong friendship.”
- Rita Juda ’83, Maple Grove, Minn., wrote, “David Juda ’83 and I took a road trip through New England and had the opportunity to see fellow classmate Tim Brook ’83.”

- Carrie Zwiebel Bloss ’97, Brooklyn, N.Y., wrote, “Sarah Thomas Brenkert ’97, myself, Siobhan McMahon ’97, Nell Todd ’97, Malia Ireland ’97, Christine Ramthun Scott ’97, and Lara Livgard ’97 met up with some other friends to run the Ragnar Zion Trail relay race. We had two teams of eight women each who ran 120 miles in about 30 straight hours. Yes, we even ran through the night. Each person ran over 15 miles, gained 1,861 feet in elevation, and laughed a lot. Our legs are sore but our hearts are full.”

LISA GAETJENS ’09, New York, wrote, “In May 2023 I received a certificate in GIS (geographic information systems) from Hunter College. I’ve since started my own freelance cartography business, and I edited more than 40 maps for the recently published book Solidarity Cities: Confronting Racial Capitalism, Mapping Transformation (University of Minnesota Press, 2025).”
Songwriting on the Spot
Rebecca McCartney ’21 competed in the Battle of the Instant Songwriters on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in June. The New York–born singer/songwriter had one hour to write an original song based on the made-up title, “Squid Game Barbecue.” “It was a whirlwind receiving the title and trying to pump out a song that leaned into the goofiness of the prompt, but also somehow represented me well as an artist,” she tells the Voice.
Fellow songwriter Nigel Richards, who ended up taking first place in the competition, wrote and performed “Traded my LeBron for a Lububu,” a mashup of news about a popular doll and football star Mike Brady’s recent purchase of a $250,000 NBA trading card. Performing on national TV was thrilling, McCartney says. “I tend to love being on stage, which helped me calm any nerves, but I was wildly intimidated by having to perform in front of Questlove and The Roots—some of my musical heroes!”
KEENAN HARTERT ’13, Mankato Minn., wrote, “I lead a student-professor discussion podcast, Degrees Between Us, from Minnesota State University. If you’re a student, parent, or educator interested in higher ed insights, find it on Spotify, Apple, or YouTube!”
MICHELLE GARCIA ’14, Fort Collins, Colo., wrote, “After 10 years as marriage and family therapists, a friend and I are starting a podcast on a subject we’re very passionate about: rituals! We are interviewing folks from all walks of life to learn from their expertise and co-create rituals for a more grounded and connected life. We want to help people tune into their inner wisdom and feel more resilient through times of transition and stress. I’d love for some fellow Carls to listen in! We are available wherever you get your podcasts. We can be reached at ritualsisterspod.com if you have questions or are interested in being a guest on the show!”
