Class Note 1945
Issue
On September 25 I attended the Class Officers Weekend dinner. The Class Officers Association awards a plaque to an alumnus who has made significant contributions to the College and the local community. This year it went to Bob Barr ’73, son of our own George Barr and Betsy. She was there and heard the great remarks that Bob made on receipt of the trophy. Then came a talk by our new President Jim Yong Kim. He makes a wonderful presentation and deals with the questions Dartmouth alumni want to ask. This College is in good hands for the future. He mentioned the value of organizations like the Outing Club and praised our student-athletes. Did you all notice that Dartmouth placed first in U.S. News & World Report’s new category for best undergraduate teaching? I glean from John Osborn’s thorough treasurer’s report that there are presently 260 living class members and 176 widows, resulting in dues from 251 persons. Make your plans for the 1945 reunion in Hanover September 24-26, 2010. It will be our last reunion, so one you will not want to miss. Also remember the Florida mini-mini March 14, 2010, at the usual place. And remember if you are ever in Hanover on the second Tuesday of the month come to the 1945 luncheon at Norwich Inn.
