Dear Classmate,
At long last, our class has its own private website! In addition to links to the Alumni Directory, In Memoriam, Yale Alumni Magazine and more, we have added links to showcase our classmates’ artistic endeavors in the fields of books, art, music, cooking, and acting. Julie Sullivan has agreed to help oversee these sections and Elissa Bernstein has agreed to head up the section on cooking. We have also added a link to enable you to join Circletime, which is our Class Book Club, run by Jackie Austin. This is definitely a work in progress and we welcome your participation and suggestions.
Much aloha,
Tommy Bourgeois, Class Secretary
Nancy Young, Class Treasurer
