“OLD FRIENDS ARE LIKE GOOD BOOKS.  WHEN YOU MAKE TIME FOR THEM, YOU CAN’T TEAR YOURSELF AWAY.”  –ANON.

The theme of our 30th reunion is All Things Bookish.

Mark your calendars: Thursday May 24^th through Sunday May 27^th. 

Jill Ker Conway is our keynote dinner speaker on Friday night (Davis ballroom).
Her remarks on women and leadership will kick off our program scheduled for Saturday afternoon.  She will also be available to sign books.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:  For the first time, the all-college Service of Remembrance will be held on Thursday evening to accommodate more people.  If you want to sing in the choir, or to offer spiritual leadership for the service, please contact:

The Saturday afternoon program will incorporate new data gathered from all of us about our personal experiences of leading and following over our first half century.

Saturday night dinner will be held at Tyler House, and will feature the ever-sensational Smithereens!

After dinner, watch for a theatrical presentation that will make you proud to be a member of the class of ’82.

We are working with Broadside Bookstore to have concession sales at HQ: Jill’s books, for example.  We invite any authors among us to bring their books and publications to show and sell at HQ.  Please consider donating proceeds to our reunion giving totals!

We will be housed at Comstock/Wilder. We will have a dance party (make your requests here on our class website!) DJ’ed by our very own Jane “Dancin’ Jansen” in the house common room to give people a place to go to wind down after all the day’s fun.
