Above: Third floor Dotyites from 1967–68 (from left) Kathy O’Brien Adjemian ’69, Sandy Casber Wise ’69,
Nedret Ercan Butler ’70, and Leah Wortham ’70 reunited in Istanbul last February. Nedret
transferred to the University of Minnesota architecture school after two years at Macalester. She
has since transformed her grandfather’s factory on the Bosphorus into a beautiful hotel and two
restaurants, sumahan.com. Nedret, Kathy (San Antonio), Leah, and Sandy (both Washington, D.C.)
enjoyed reminiscing, visiting Istanbul sites, and being calmed by the Bosphorus.
