Although the men and women celebrated most of the reunion weekend together, we did hold separate class luncheons on Saturday. At the Pembroke luncheon, we re-elected Jean Tanner Edwards president; Dorothy Kay Fishbein vice president; Florence Asadorian Dulgarian secretary; and Enzina DeRobbio Sammartino treasurer. Each will serve another five-year term. Lois Colinan Counihan planned our delicious lunch, which was held in the Crystal Room of Alumnae Hall. Our scholarship student, Vanessa Bohns '00, spoke about her college experiences. Some of us toured the beautifully remodeled Smith-Buonnano Hall (the old Sayles Gymnasium).
The men had their luncheon at reunion headquarters in Alpha Delta Phi. They elected Jim Starkweather as the new president and reelected Dick Pretat as vice president, Stan Ehrlich as secretary, and Dan Fairchild as treasurer.
Highlights of the weekend were the class dinner at the Hope Club on Saturday night and a grand party and clambake and the home of Hank Sharpe and his wife, Peggy, in North Kingstown, R.I. Monday was cloudy and cold until the sun took over later in the morning, making the weather for this Commencement march quite unlike the downpour we walked in five years ago. — Jean Tanner Edwards
