What You Should Know About June 6, 7 & §!
F YOU ARE a member of the Class of ’28, ’33, ’38, ’43, "48 or ’53, then
you should know that big plans are underway for the June Reunion,
For these classes it is their five-year reunion and they are busy now
organizing for their anniversary in June, From the enthusiasm shown to
date there is every indication that Villanova’s best reunion is in the
making.
It all started at last year’s reunion when the Board of Governors decided
that they should take steps to revitalize the reunion. A committee yas
appointed and they spent the summer and fall planning a format and
organizational change in the three-day event. Class chairmen were
appointed for the five-year classes and each chairman has enthusiastically
set upon the task of organizing his class for the reunion.
The five-year classes are currently polling its members with regard to
the type of program they would most enjoy. In the meantime the
Reunion Committee has set up certain events so that plans for them may
be made. The Jamboree in the Field House on Friday night will be
left intact but with a few additions. A forty-five-minute period has
been set aside for each of the coaches to show films and discuss their
seasons. This probably will be done on the stage with the curtain closed
so that a session need not be interrupted by those who do not care to
attend.
On Saturday the Memorial Mass will be held at the grotto instead of in
the Chapel. The luncheon on Saturday will become a class luncheon
with cocktails. The various classes will join together for this luncheon.
After the luncheon a one-hour report will be given by some member of
the Administration. The activity for the remainder of Saturday after.
noon will be determined largely by the replies to the class questionnaires,
In addition to sports, which are usually held at this time, there has been
some interest for a seminar or two on some outstanding and interesting
topic. No definite plans have been made as yet. The annual alumni
banquet will be held Saturday night and early enough to allow for a
class function Saturday night.
By building the Reunion around the five-year classes the Committee
in no way hopes to discourage the non-anniversary classes, There will
be plenty of activity for these men as well. The Committee spent many
hours discussing the Reunion and what it should embrace. You are in-
vited to write to the Alumni Office with your ideas or thoughts on this
subject. Particularly is the Committee anxious to have comments on the
desirability of having the alumni banquet open to the wives and following
it with a dance. What are your thoughts?
The Reunion is an integral part of the University. The Reunion, and
only the Reunion, keeps a class alive. It is the one way by which a class
as a unit expresses itself and registers that it is alive and able to accom-
plish something. The future development of Villanova University should
spring directly from the support of the Alumni. Alumni support till
ebb in direct proportion to decadence of class organization. There will be
no vigorous classes, eager and open-handed in the support of the Uni-
versity, whose most visible expression is not a well-attended Reunion.
The Reunion’s vital significance cannot be exaggerated. If ever Villanova
looks on the Class Reunion as obsolete, Villanova will become just an-
other educational institution where young men may abstract so much
education and go their way.
Let’s support the Reunion and have a good time!
Club meeting nights:
STANFORD—Ist Monday of every month.
CHICAGO—4th Thursday of every month (except Nov. & Dec.) and Ist Thursday in
ecember,
SOUTH JERSEY—3rd Monday of every month but July, August and December.
LAWRENCE—usually last Thursday of every month.
If you are in the area at meeting time, call the Club Secretary and make plans to attend.
