Quote of the Day (Calvin Trillin, Imagining an Alumni Note From the Class of ’93)


“More good news from one of the legal beagles of the class: Clem Howard writes from Oregon that, upon appeal, his disbarment has been reduced to what he describes as ‘a strong censure with conditions,’ which will allow his law practice to continue. The principal condition is that when he meets with a female client a third party must be in the room. Clem writes, ‘I can certainly live with that condition, particularly if the third party is a chick of considerable hotness.’”—American journalist-humorist Calvin Trillin, with alumni news from “The Class of ’93,” in “Shouts and Murmurs: Class Notes,” The New Yorker, Sept. 9, 2019
