Life
I have lived in Athens, Georgia since 1988. After graduating from UNC, I returned to Kannapolis for a few years to work in Industrial Relations at Cannon Mills. I married Chris Cornwell (UNC '81) in 1982 and moved to East Lansing, MI for him to complete graduate studies at MSU.

I am the director of a mother's morning out program at Faith Presbyterian Church, serve with various volunteer organizations, watch high school baseball almost year-round (Sam places first base), do lots of laundry from the dorm, and try to keep up with Sallie and her dog, rabbit, fish and 3 crabs. Life is never dull!
