Testimonials

"I thought the reunion only would be enjoyable and worthwhile if 'my' circle of friends from Calvin would also attend.  That wasn't the case but what I discovered was how much wider that circle actually was as the class came together and we rediscovered and recounted interactions at many different levels. Turned out to be a lot of fun and relationship-building toward the future. As Bob Dylan and The Byrds observed, 'I was so much older then but I'm younger than that now.'" —Nick Kroeze, class of 1973

"I received the information about the 50th reunion and was actually ambivalent about going. However, because my friend Nancy was part of the team putting the reunion together, I wanted to be supportive of her work and efforts and so I signed up. The weekend exceeded my expectations in so many ways. Catching up with people I hadn’t seen in 50 years was delightful and hearing others speak of their memories brought many memories back to me. The atmosphere of the whole weekend was relaxed but purposeful.  I would highly recommend this reunion weekend to anyone considering. You will not be disappointed." —Cheryl La Fleur, class of 1974

"I've attended every Calvin reunion since graduation, so I knew I would definitely attend our 50th. The weekend didn't disappoint. In fact, it exceeded my expectations in every way. Great organization, great food, great chance to see new things at Calvin, and above all, many great opportunities to interact with friends. I truly hope that future classes take advantage of this weekend that Calvin provides—and work hard to convince your former Calvin friends to join you! You'll be so glad that you came—whether from across the world, across the country, or simply across the city!" —Nancy Eardley, class of 1974
