Post News & Events

CACO (Cornell Association of Class Officers) is held yearly and allows classes to get together and talk about activities and goals. This year Ken Hershey, Rosemary Jung, Bert Rosen, Mitzi Russekoff, Jim Settel, Chick Trayford, Robert Martin, and Jack Vail attended the two-day session in Philadelphia in early February.

Reunion dates are June 4 - 7, 2009, and co-chairs Jack Vail and Chick Trayford are already working on finding volunteers for the various committees and discussing options for events and activities. Rosemary and Les Reed will do decorations. Jim Settel will work on affinity networking.

Robert Martin introduced a project in which classmates would be asked to write about their memories of Cornell. A .pdf copy of the letter being sent to all classmates can be printed or downloaded by clicking HERE.

Jack and Chick will attend the 1953 Reunion this June to assess the lay of the reunion landscape. It was also decided that at reunion we would pare down the class council list to those who are able to contribute time and energy to the class, that there would be no class picture, and that the class will again participate in the freshmen book selection and send the books to classmates who are dues payers.

Treasurer Bert Rosen reported that our obligation to the university scholarship fund has been paid, and we are in good shape to be able to fund our reunion.

It was also reported that our class giving to Cornell totaled a very respectful $7,375,297.00.
