ITHACA COLLEGE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION


The Ithaca College Alumni Association Board of Directors would like to invite all alumni to a very special event. Reunion '97, with the theme of "Blue and Gold, New and Old," will be an event to remember, but only if you are there! Included will be:

Special celebrations for the classes of '92, '87, '82, '77, '72, '67, '62, '57, '52, and '47 and earlier.

Registration forms will be sent to these classes and all alumni in the Southern Tier. If you are not among these groups and would like to attend, please fill out the form on the back cover of this issue or call the Reunion '97 Information Line, (607) 274-1393.

Several opportunities to celebrate with President James J. Whalen as we thank him for 22 years of outstanding leadership and wish him well.

Hear President Whalen's special perspectives on Ithaca's past and the projects and programs under way to help meet the challenges of our future.

A "key" experience for the School of Music and its alumni, as construction begins to expand Ford Hall to almost twice its present size to become the Center for Music at Ithaca College.

Performances by and gatherings with faculty and alumni, as well as opportunities to review building plans, will highlight the weekend.

A full slate of activities for and in honor of our alumni who helped build one of the best intercollegiate athletic programs in the country.

Go, Bombers!

Lots of food, sun (we hope!), and fun for everyone.

Come back and enjoy the sights and sounds of the beautiful South Hill campus, the city of Ithaca, and the surrounding Finger Lakes region!

A chance to be an important part of Reunion history by helping to reach our goal of 1,000 attendees.

With 932 in attendance last year, we're certain that this will be the year we can set a new record and start a new tradition.

A chance to help your class set a record all its own.

Last year the class of '46 took honors with 35 percent of its class in attendance, while the class of '86 broke all records for Reunion giving with gifts totaling close to $34,000. Be a part of your class effort this year!
