One of our biggest initiatives for our 50th reunion is a 50th year reunion book containing, among other
features, a class directory and biographies of our classmates, including yours. WE NEED YOUR
INPUT to make the book a successful and valuable book.
See the link in the home page for information on submitting your biographical
information and current photo. Please submit this information ASAP. The deadline for submitting
information for the class directory is October 15, 2009; for your biographical writeup and photo,
January 10, 2010. Don’t miss out on being included in these sections of the reunion book.
More updates will follow – on the class web site and by regular mail. If you have questions about our
June 2010 reunion plans, please check with our staffer at the Alumni Association, Robert Dimmick, at
617-253-8225 or rdimmick@mit.edu
All of us on the committee look forward to seeing you next June.
