Class Note 1982
Issue
May-June 2023
“Let’s Celebrate Together!” is the theme of our 40th reunion in Hanover June 15-18—in just a few weeks. Come one, come all! P.T. Barnum has nothing on our reunion co-chairs Eric Miller and Jim Vahey, who promise four days of fun and fabulous events with plenty of time to reconnect with classmates and see all of the new buildings on campus. It will be a true post-pandemic party you won’t want to miss!
Please do not let costs get in the way of coming to the reunion. It is very important to your class officers that everyone who would like to attend is able to do so. We have set up a fund to defray reunion costs such as registration fees and housing costs. If you need financial assistance in order to attend, please contact George Thompson at gthompson@gthompsonlegal.com or (508) 736-0070. Your inquiry is completely confidential. If you know of any classmate who would like to attend but is worried about the cost, please let any class officer know. We are greater together!
The official activities begin on Thursday night with a welcome reception and class dinner in our class tent followed by time to catch up. Non-alcoholic beverages will be available throughout the reunion. Come Friday to take full advantage of everything on offer: a welcome breakfast, a class meeting, celebrations of the class projects we have established through the years, tours of campus buildings and even tea at Sanborn (thank you, Carl Salas). On Friday there will also be open houses at many of the College’s academic departments. Come say “bonjour” to your former French professor or impress your economics professor that you still remember what a Laffer curve is. Don’t miss Friday evening’s reception and dinner followed by a band at our class tent. Remember dancing to “Rock Lobster”?
Saturday begins with a scavenger hunt (thanks to Corinne Heyes), followed by a chance to climb the 86 steps of Bartlett Tower. Then you can hear President Hanlon speak. We will be having a joint lunch with the classes of 1983 and 1984, followed by gatherings sponsored by alumni affiliated and shared interest groups (such as Black Alumni at Dartmouth Association, Dartmouth Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Alumni Association, and Women of Dartmouth). You will have plenty of time to enjoy summer in Hanover and play Frisbee on the Green or take a walk around Occom Pond, then a final class reception and dinner, followed by a celebration on the Green with all of the reuning classes before returning to our own class tent for a final evening of dancing to the tunes of our own D.J. Photo booth and ice cream included!
After breakfast on Sunday, we will gather to remember those classmates who have died. Tee Lotson will continue to inspire and lead us and we will join together to cry, laugh, and share stories. I, for one, am so grateful to be part of this amazing class. Jenny and I cannot wait to see you, hug you, and celebrate together!
