Lisa and Dan Shields
“You probably don’t remember me.” Lisa (DiNicola) Shields ’81 did not expect to hear those words on her answering machine in the summer of 1990, especially coming from Dan Shields ’80 – her ex-boyfriend from college. Dan’s assumption couldn’t have been further from the truth. In fact, he had been on Lisa’s mind that very morning, all because of SUNY Potsdam’s alumni magazine, Potsdam People.
