WELCOME, 2022!
Dear 1979 Classmates:
We were quite surprised, disappointed, and perhaps even shocked that the pandemic did not end in 2021. The unprecedented persistence of the COVID-19 virus, Delta and Omicron variants, and natural disasters, continue to impact all that we do and everywhere we go – severely limiting and wreaking unusual havoc in our lives. Despite such disruption, our supreme wish is that you courageously and successfully navigated through the year, and ultimately, your holidays were peaceful, safe, merry and bright.
As your Class Officers, we are here for you, to encourage all forms of communication, especially with each other and with us, to keep you informed of program activities, and to maintain connections with the College. Take care and keep shining! Stay tuned for upcoming events that we hope will appeal to you, pique your interests, and lead to participation.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
