50th Reunion Speakers Program

 

The Class has completed our 50th Reunion Speakers’ Program, as a first step in preparing for our 50th.  This is a ten part series of fun, interesting, and even educational programs by and for our Class. 

Background:

In early summer of 2021, the Class launched a 50th Reunion Speakers’ Program to prompt thinking
about our wonderful Class. Rod McNealy organized a ten part monthly series of engaging Sunday afternoon
Zoom programs featuring several classmates presenting each topic. Rod punctuated the session with musical
interludes and “drop-in” visits from internationally resident classmates. Rod McNealy was a dapper and splen-
did host: the discussions were outstanding. Here’s the list:

  • Tony Tichenor-Covid-19 Update
