Our hardworking head agent Frank Weber reports that in the 2 003 College Fund our goal was $100,000 and that there was received $119,754 or 120 percent of goal. Class participation was 18101-54.8 percentvs.45.4 percent from all alumni. Ham Chase, as a fraternity advisor, has been involved with the changes in the coed, fraternity and sorority recognition system under the College Office of Residential Life. He is in complete sympathy with the more stringent revised mles concerning accountability and responsibility for all CFS members. He is complimentary to the students and administration representatives who worked together to fashion the policy. The student body has accepted the somewhat more restrictive policy on alcohol on campus. Kudos from the College administration were awarded to our outgoing presidential intern, Melissa Hammerle '03, for her part in planning and setting up the program for the academic gala held in Collis on April 29 to honor outstanding undergraduate scholars in all major fields. A new face was promised for our October mini-reunion. Larry Laskey of Woodmere, New York, indicated plans to attend for the first time.

Reminiscences of fall of our freshman year 60 years ago: We were on daylight saving time the year round. Snow came early that fall making for good skiing well before Thanksgiving.

The sympathy of the class is offered to the families of Roy Murray, who died on March 3, and Irwin Weinstein, who died on July 19,2002.

Keep in touch.
