of a large music room in the Platt Student Performing Arts house. The room serves
the needs of student vocal and instrumental groups, including the Penn Jazz Ensemble,
the New Spirit of Penn Gospel Choir, the Penn Glee Club, and several a cappella
groups. Join us at the reception and toast
the Class of 1969 Rehearsal Room! RSVP by email to Lisbeth Willis, Director

While you are on campus we invite you to experience the new Penn Homecoming tradition with substantive creative arts and culture related events. This year, Penn is offering 87 programs, including the Penn
Film Festival, hands-on interactive
classes taught by Penn instructors, numerous lectures, over 20 special
events, and much, much more. You may wish to join classmates cheer
on the Quakers to victory against Princeton, and take part in other old favorites such as the Taste
of Penn and Quakerfest.
If you plan to attend Quakerfest don't forget to update your QuakerNet profile. The first 400 people to update their information at one of our QuakerNet kiosks will receive a red and blue Penn knit scarf!
Our 40th Reunion maybe over but the memories live on. We all had a blast!
Attendance - over 232 classmates
and their guests attended Alumni Weekend.
Fund Raising - $19M from 442 donors
was raised by the Class for total gifts to the University.
Connections - over 655 classmates
were personally contacted by our Reunion outreach committee, in addition to
our use of consistent semi-annual Class newsletters and an active Class website,
and our 40th Reunion Group on LinkedIn.
Personal emails and telephone calls continue as
classmates have been energized to connect and stay connected with each other
and to Penn. Visit our 40th
Reunion Group on LinkedIn to help stay connected.
We are looking ahead to our 45th reunion in 2014! We hope this website will continue our mission to assist classmates in reconnecting with one another, our class events, and Penn.
