This past weekend our Class of 1995 Reunion Chairs, Lisa
Powell Fortna and Michael Stroud, traveled back to Ithaca to attend Reunion.
They and their committee are already hard at work planning for our 20th
next year (take a deep breath, sit down if you need to – it HAS been that
long). Here's their report from campus and some hints about what to expect in
2015:
Hey 95ers ...
This past weekend marked less than a year until our 20th
reunion back on the hill in Ithaca. We had an excellent time – lots of fun with
classmates and friends and a chance to see all the changes and improvements on campus. It looks
great! We even ran into one of our most
distinguished "class members" – President Frank Rhodes, who said he
would join us next year in Ithaca for his reunion year.

Besides the variety of great
ways for alums to reconnect with classmates and Cornell, there were a ton of
fun activities for families and kids. The Fun in the Sun event featured
jugglers, moon bounces, cotton candy, and even a sighting of the Big Red Bear.
The Cornell Creamery tours were popular for anyone, especially those who happen
to like Cornell ice cream (everyone) – and the weather was perfect for it. Those activities and more are on tap for next
year as well. We'll see what we can do about the weather. When you make your plans for 2015, make sure to bring your
family - you may end up with a future Cornellian or two.
