I'd be happy to field any questions.........
My bro-in-law Joe Carrese was an '80 Williams grad and went on to Suny Buffalo Med School (ring any bells?). He's down in Baltimore at Johns Hopkins. Small world....
Hi, Peter,
Thanks for your response to my questions. I don't have an email address for you to send a draft of my article, but here's the part of your quote that I'm using. If you'll send me an email at mmcclinto@yahoo.com, I'll send you the full article.
Thanks again!

While AlumNet can help alumni find long-lost friends, it is also a way to meet new ones, and to help other alums and current students. Peter Ripley is a family practice physician in Monument Beach, MA. He said, “My reason for joining AlumNet is to provide an insider's perspective on a road less travelled. My time at GCC was pivotal and put me on the path to becoming a physican, a most rewarding career. I hope to share my experience from high school to GCC to Williams College to University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. I'd love to spread the word that two years at GCC can place a student on the road to attaining an M.D. degree. My goal is to provide encouragement and advice, just like Rob Yacubian at GCC did for me, for students or alums who are pursuing the medical field.”
Hi, Peter,
I'm an Outdoor Leadership Program alum from 82, and I'm now a writer for GCC. I'm writing an article about the launch of AlumNet and would love to chat or email with you about what you hope to get from being on AlumNet. Check out my member page here. If you're willing to chat/email, please contact me at mmcclinto@yahoo.com.
Thanks!
Mary

Welcome, Peter! I'm so glad you signed up and are offering your advice. My son is a senior in high school and planning on become a primary care doc - I'll let him know you made the offer.
thanks, Regina
