1978
Dear Classmates,
This May marked
our 25th year since graduating. The photo in the last issue
did not include all of our classmates and
spouses who attended, but it gives you a glimpse of some
of the people who did. The school, the reunion committee
and I want to thank the participants who helped plan it,
called for the class gift and attendance, and came to enjoy
the camaraderie. We also thank the professors who shared
great memories and 24/7 stories with us. We had more than
20 percent participation from our classmates, who contributed
to the class gift. That’s quite impressive.
After 25 years
it is time for me to hand the mantle of class rep to one
of our classmates. Instead of just choosing someone,
I would like to hear from anyone who would be interested
in filling this role. It has been a privilege to write two
to
three columns each year and stay in touch with so many of
you. I still hope to keep in contact, but want to have someone
else
serve in this capacity. Receiving notes and photos from many
of you has been a joy. Who knows — I may want the mantle
back at our 50th reunion! One
of those notes comes from Daryl M. Lee, who says: “After
a 23-year career in marketing at AT&T and Lucent Technologies,
I have taken a new job as vice president of business development
for the National Institute of Urban Entrepreneurship, an
organization that helps entry-level entrepreneurs in urban
areas grow their
businesses.”
