Marjorie Schaafsma
Kalamazoo College, BA (1974); LBJ School of Public Affairs, University of Texas at Austin, Master of Public Affairs (1976); Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University, MBA (1986).
After high school, I went to Kalamazoo College (BA), then the LBJ School at the University of Texas at Austin (Master of Public Affairs). From there, I worked for U. S. Senator Don Riegle for seven years, followed by two years at Northwestern (Kellogg) to get an MBA. I returned to the working world at Price Waterhouse, where I spent four years valuing intangible assets (media properties – radio stations, tv stations, magazines), then a small, Chicago based consulting firm, and, most recently, for RGL Forensics, performing economic damages/forensic consulting/expert witness work. I left there in March 2010, and am trying to decide what I want to do next.While working for Senator Riegle, I married Maud; presently, she is doing some community organizing on Chicago’s west side (primarily trying to get what is described as the “Harlem’s Children’s Zone” started in an area of high poverty, low educational achievement). We have a daughter – Katharine – who lives in New York and inspires to be an independent film director. For her “day job,” she works in production for the New York Review of Books. It makes me happy that she is working for a liberal publication, and learning to write well. While I have not been back to Grosse Pointe much in the last 15/20 years, I do have positive thoughts about the place. I cheered during the closing/credits scene of Gran Torino, when the Grosse Pointe Yacht Club appeared in the distance. Be well. |

Civilian Instructor teaching outdoor survival skills and winter camping/survival skills. After leaving the breastfeeding specialist business, I went to work for an outdoor outfitters. Now enjoying my time on the rivers and lakes with my fly rod and canoe. I guide and teach fly fishing and fly tying, am the President of the local fly fishing club, Forest City Fly Fishing Club. (*update...taking a break from duties as Pres....but still teaching, I also built and maintain the club web site as well as others....aka Web Page designer. I build custom fly rods and tie flies for my arts and crafts fix and now for physiotherapy. )Central Michigan U. Sorry I won't be at the reunion. I'll be dragging my tent, my husband and my fly rod out on the road, fishing my way through the the Rockies. Life's a bitch! I raised four beautiful kids, now all grown. They still come and go...and currently #2 is at home. I have two wonderful grandchildren, living up in Hanover, Ontario. Photo of the whole gang *UPDATE: Sept. 9 2010, Well the trip out west was going great. The fishing was fantastic and so was the scenery...then on July 28th at 2 AM a grizzly bear decided to rampage through Soda Butte Campground outside Yellowstone Park, killing one person and injuring two others. I was one of the others. Home now and recovering. I hope to be back on the streams soon. ) |

I've been teaching various grades in the GP schools for 30 years, and still enjoy it, although retirement isn't looking so bad either.Wayne State - Masters I was married for 10 years, and still remain friends with my ex. I have many pets, 2 Bouvier des Flandres, a table cat (long story), a cockatoo, 2 turtles, 2 corn snakes, and many mice, whose fates vary depending on the whims of the corns. I'm still very liberal and politically active, still have real long hair (although not 40 years worth), still love to laugh and goof around, and still have only a small circle of friends. The wild child has grown up, but if you look real close, she's still just under the surface. |

After college we lived in GPF for 22 years then took a job transfer to Ohio. Retired in 2006 and was bored silly by fall of 2008. Since then I have been working for Cuyahoga Community College, Leslie was so happy to get me out of the house. Our four daughters are all wonderful and have filled our lives with joy for many years. |
