’96 Update

Alumni Office — Mon, 22 Apr 2013 15:12:50 +0000

I thought classmates might get a kick out of the fact that my twins, Lincoln and Ella, are heading to an elementary school next year headed by none other than Joe Harvey, who taught math and coached crew during our tenure. If he can whip miscreants like Andy Sweetland into shape, I figure he ought to be able to handle my kids.

Hey, folks. I’m doing a Ph.D. in Film & Media at Berkeley, and Ted Ullyot graciously hosted a group of my students for a visit to Facebook. It was an incredible trip to an amazing place and a DA meet-up after a long break. Thanks, Ted!

New Books and New Business

Hello all:

I just want to tell you that I am alive and well.

Also, very busy doing what I like to do. I am still at Stanford telling graduate students what they should be doing.

And I published two books recently: “Advanced Batteries: Materials Science Aspects”, and “Energy Storage”, both with Springer. And now I am working with one of my former students to get a new advanced battery company started called Alveo Energy. Those of you who remember the Latin that you took from Mr. Coffin will know that Alveo means “hole or tunnel”. The reason the the use of that name is that the critical feature of the unusually favorable batteries is that the electrodes have crystal structures containing atomic-sized holes.

My wife Patty and I sold our wonderful 47 foot sailboat in England last year, and we now have to find something else to do with our time. It is beginning to look like a cruise or two may do for a while.

If any of you are in the vicinity of Stanford, please call: 650-843-0613.

’90 Update

I had the pleasure of working with Cate Wadman (Deerfield class of 2013) this past summer. Cate was part of Deerfield’s new Opening Doors program. She flew out to San Francisco to intern for me and my nonprofit organization, Project Night Night. We had a terrific time and created a short video of our work together. http://animoto.com/play/6n4qp1yniHEfhOR1PnlFKQ Kendra Stitt Robins Class of 1990
