Classmate Awards & Homecoming
Cornell Homecoming took place last weekend and we celebrated three Notable Class of ‘74 members! Cornell Trustee Emeritus Mort Bishop of Oregon, Class President Dale Lazar of Virginia, and Cornell Alumni Admissions Ambassador Network (CAAAN) former chair Randy Rosenberg of Long Island all received the Frank H.T. Rhodes Exemplary Alumni Service Award. This prestigious award honors alumni who have demonstrated extraordinary service to Cornell through long-term volunteer activities. Congrats to Mort, Dale and Randy—well-deserved!
On Saturday afternoon of Homecoming, the Classes of the 70’s hosted a pre-football-game tailgate. Thanks to classmate Walter Scott for yeoman work staffing the grill and for sharing his amazing Big Red Football motor home! The Cornell football team lost to Yale in a close game, 30-24, but Schoellkopf Stadium was full of Cornell alums of all ages who were happy to be back at their alma mater for the weekend. More Homecoming photos are on the Class Facebook page. Just search Facebook for Cornell 1974 and click to join. It’s one more way to keep in touch.
This—our 45th Reunion year—is all about participation: coming to Reunion in June, supporting the university, paying class dues. If you haven’t yet paid your 2018-19 dues, now is the time. You’ll receive Cornell Alumni Magazine which is a great way to stay in touch with all that’s happening with Cornell and Cornellians, especially in this, our Reunion year. You may pay on-line here or by check.
Happy Fall!
Sincerely,
Bill Howard
