Moving to Chicago after graduating from Hamilton College, Allison Krutal '06 first fell in love with the Midwest after she traveled with the Hamilton College Choir during its annual spring tour. Since 2006, Allison has enjoyed the windy city thanks to the vibrant city life, her continued education in psychology and the new friendships she has made after life on the Hill. However, her experience on the Hill has continued to play a large role in her social life as she plans quarterly social hours with Hamilton friends. Hosting a happy hour in Chicago on November 14, Allison was joined by 11 GOLD (Graduates of the Last Decade) alumni. Allison reports "the event that I hosted was quite successful… about 11 people come out, including several who I did not know previously. I was very happy." The Chicago Alumni Association will hold its annual Holiday Party on Thursday, December 18 at the home of Sandra and Franklin Gelber, parents of Jessy '09.
