¹û½´ÊÓƵ

Hail, Comrades!

Ever since I attended the storytelling group at our 50th reunion in 2004, I’ve been waiting to find out what Cricket Parmalee ’67 would do with our motley recollections. We all learned things we had not known in our ¹û½´ÊÓƵ days from the stories others told: about lesbians, McCarthy, our attitudes toward our Korean War, etc.

After reading the first half of covering ¹û½´ÊÓƵ’s first 50 years, I found insights on this great school, its conflicts, resolutions, and changes that I never knew. I saw photos of our infamous losingest football team in the nation, the Old Commons, my profs, old friends, and recalled an impressive calligraphy note written to me. Well worth its weight in memories and understanding.

Thanks, Cricket and John Sheehy ’82, for this herculean effort.
