Larry Stevens was featured recently in an<br />
article in Ezra Magazine, one of Cornell’s<br />
most popular magazines. Larry provided<br />
this note: “From my days at D-E to<br />
graduating from Cornell with honors, to<br />
getting into grad school in DC and Harvard’s<br />
doctorate program after I finish Teach For<br />
America, to now influencing hundreds of<br />
children in Washington, DC, America’s worst<br />
school system…Every day is a challenge,<br />
but God is good and has prepared me for<br />
<strong>the</strong> journey. Thanks to D-E from me for<br />
bringing me to this place in my life.”<br />
Faculty member Marisol Diaz writes:<br />
“How fascinating <strong>the</strong> world is: Last night I<br />
picked up a new art and literary journal<br />
(H.O.W. Journal) from www.howjournal.com<br />
since I am very interested in such<br />
publications, and this Sunday morning<br />
I’m reading it to find one of <strong>the</strong><br />
contributing writers is former D-E student<br />
Emma Larson! Thought this may be of<br />
interest to you all.”<br />

On September 27, 2010, Lilah Larson<br />
and Daniel Fisher ’06, were married in<br />
a private ceremony in Nyack, NY.<br />
Chris Lo spoke at an exciting Upper<br />
<strong>School</strong> assembly which also featured<br />
<strong>Englewood</strong> Idol performances and PAS<br />
Short Films. Chris is currently at Wash<br />
U, was Student Government president<br />
at D-E and has done great things in<br />
his short time out of D-E. The biggest<br />
to date is creating a pay-it-forward<br />
website called <strong>the</strong> Karma Seed<br />
(http://<strong>the</strong>karmaseed.org). He really<br />
wanted to come back and speak about<br />
how influential his experience at D-E has<br />
been for him and introduce Karma Seed.<br />
He described his 15-20 minute talk as<br />
his version of a high school “TED” talk.<br />
