NCE CLASS OF 1958

LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR 50TH CLASS REUNION!

On the weekend of June 6th and 7, 2008, our class will celebrate its 50th class reunion.  Judging by this photo from the Class of ’57 reunion, we have a lot to live up to. We plan to do it, and then some!

The reunion will include every class that has graduated in a year ending in “3” or “8”, from the class of ’38 to the class of ‘03.  This means that besides spending time alone with our own classmates, we will have the opportunity to visit with alumni of all ages and stages.

The weekend will offer intellectually stimulating events including department visits and academic presentations; campus tours, good food and drink, an opportunity to dance to a seven piece band, and most of all, the fun of reuniting and reminiscing with former classmates.

Amazing changes have taken place on the campus since we graduated.  If you haven’t been back within the last five years, we can promise it will make you feel like Rip Van Winkle.  Our old campus has grown to 40 acres.  There’s a new center with a glass atrium, several dorms, a bell tower, a modern athletic center, and beautifully landscaped green spaces all over campus. The old Eberhardt Hall has been restored to 1880’s elegance and is now the Eberhardt Hall Alumni Center and home of the University Club.

Our Class Reunion Committee was the first to get going this year, and we hit the ground running.  We did not stop until we had contacted every member of our class who has a valid phone number.  We are happy to report that 82 classmates have told us they will be there, and another 50 plan to attend if they can.

A brochure and registration form will be in your hands in late January ’08.   Sign up and join us for a tremendous weekend; or if you can’t get away for the whole time, plan to come to the dinner dance on Saturday night, June 7th.

We are anticipating a very special weekend, and we really want you to be a part of it.

See you on the weekend of June 6th – 7th.
