Classmate Profile

Please fill out a profile for us as completely as possible.  This information will be used for many different things... mailing invitations, emailing updates, and keeping in contact with classmates for future reunions. 

Use the "Comments" section to tell us what you've been doing for the past 40 years... what have been your proudest moments, what lessons have you learned, what is most important to you now, or what dreams are yet unfulfilled on your bucket list.  Come back and make changes whenever you like.

Upload your "before" and "after" pictures.  If you would like help with the "before" (senior year high school photo), please contact us and we'll be happy to assist you.

Occupation: International Library Consultant
Comment: Libraries became my life's mission (surprise!) Worked for several state governmental library agencies, county/city libraries, and directed several public library systems in Minnesota, Georgia, and Iowa from 1970 to 2018.  In 1990, started a part time practice as a consultant for strategic planning and the construction of public libraries across the nation.  Expanded my consultantship to the international arena after I retired from my position of Director at the Des Moines Public Library System in 2018.  Other than that, living the life in Iowa!

Comment: Hello!



I very much enjoyed connecting with everyone at the 2010 reunion. Since then I have retired (now live in the mountains of New Mexico) and married a wonderful woman, Carrie Classon. We maintain a very physically active life, with lots of biking and hiking in the mountains. Last fall we hiked two weeks on the famous Camino in Spain and this fall will spend a month in Pomplano, Spain. I haven't made it to any of the mini reunions but will make a major effort to make the 50th in 2020. Hope you all are healthy!!

The memories are flooding back after seeing all your names- 40 years- amazing.



I graduated from Vassar, along with Bobby Sipkins who I hope is coming to reunion! Then went  to grad school at NYU and got an MBA. Lived in NYC for 8 years and when my son John was born we moved to Sioux Falls to be back in the midwest  and I have been in SF ever since- never planned on that but its home now.



I just retired from Citibank after 32 years in human resources and operations managment. In 2000 I decided I had had enough of corporate life so went and got a PhD in Organization Leadership- AND now I get to go do what I really love as I start a full time teaching position at the University of Sioux Falls on September 1 - so YEAH I get to go back to college and school. I never stopped loving learning.



I am married to my second husband Phil who came with 3 older childred Maren, Erik and Nate so I have 4 kids and 7 grandchildren. They are a joy to be sure.



Also I finally finally am living my dream of owning my own horse!  So Eric Ramberg all that horse play in the basement when were kids led to reality at age 55.



It will be great to see everyone, so many stories and so many I have forgotten I am sure.



See you soon!

Comment: Since I never graduated, I have been reluctant to go to too many reunions, I did go to the 20th as Nestors date. I think I'll go to the 40th. If Nestor doesn't invite me I'll lean on Hartman, since he has been pommeling me with reunion info.



My Professional Bio Says: "Jim Herbert has been involved in the Chemical, Physical & Biological treatment of water & wastewater since 1975, as technical representative and designer".



I have had a lifelong interest in sailing, and have a sailing club on Meetup.com
