Two years later, they were married in a ceremony at Harvard's Memorial Church followed by a celebration at the Faculty Club. They spent their first year of marriage living in the basement of Greenough.
"How romantic," they say, laughing.
Now, Sarah Drummond serves as an assistant dean of freshmen and associate minister (check) at Memorial Church, and Dan Drummond has continued with the admissions office.
"It's a really interesting combination," Sarah Drummond says. "Dan...is dealing with students in their last year of high school, and I deal with them in their first year of college. It's amazing...how much our roles are intertwined."
The Drummonds don't often work directly with each other, but Sarah Drummond shares a special memory of a recent collaboration.
"We were in a small meeting together, talking about a program Dan was running," she says. "I remember looking up and thinking, 'He's really smart. He's really good at what he does. I'm so lucky to have married him.'"
Even though the only other member of their family is their cat, Samson, the Drummonds say they sometimes feel like Harvard parents. Both keep in regular contact with many of their former proctees and advisees.
