Patricia Campbell: I finished law school and am an attorney with Winston & Strawn in Washington, DC, practicing nuclear energy law. My daughter (now 31 years old) moved to Germany to just live for a while and experience a foreign country. My son (now 22 years old) is in college. My husband is in the National Guard and has been deployed for a couple of short term actions since 9/11/2001 (I was in DC at work when the Pentagon was hit). (04/03) Since February 2, 2005, I am Of Counsel at the law firm of Morgan, Lewis, & Bockius LLP in Washington, DC. My daughter lives in Germany and teaches English as a foreign language and my son is in college. The WISE 1983 alumni reunion was a lot of fun. (06/05) I am now the Director, Washington Regulatory Affairs, for GE Nuclear. (12/06)

As we did in 1983, we made a little “yearbook” of the experience. Unlike 1983, we have a few gray hairs and this one is in PDF format. Contact Jack if you would like the file sent along.(12/04)
