The 25th was truly the BEST reunion and a big success, as those of you who attended will attest. And for those of you who were not able to be there, we missed you! Our class will have turned out in record numbers with Bill Watson coming from Australia and others from all points in between. From the very beginning, the air was filled with excitement and the still fresh enthusiasm of the 25-year alumni, only multiplied by their wives, dates, and offspring.

Notably present were class officers GeneKohn, Phil Kron, Dick Davidson, Jim Adler, and our hardworking and dedicated reunion team, Tom Trimarco, Bob Boye, and DickGriggs. Among others who were highly visible were Drs. Mike Erlich, Herb Mauer, and Neil Grey, who presided over the Friday panel, "Who Lives - Who Dies." Another panel, "U.S. Foreign Policy in the 'Bos," had Mort Kondracke, Paul Boeker, and DennisGoodman. The class meeting was led by Gene Kohn on Friday afternoon, after which a gala reception was held in the class tent. The alumni parade marched to the Thompson Arena where the alumni dinner was held. The Mary Travis and Tom Paxton "hootenanny," which was produced by John Goyette for the benefit of the Kit and Warner Bentley Fund, was a nice windup to an action-packed day.

Thanks to all of the reunion team for the fine job they did this past year in making this a truly memorable weekend for all of us.

As this is the last paragraph of my last column as your class secretary, I think it is time to say thanks to all of you for your participation in the last five years. I will now be able to look forward to reading this column in the coming months to keep up with everyone's activities, rather than trying to track you down to meet my deadline. Wish you all a great summer!
