PRESIDENT'S LETTER
June 2008


Dear Classmates:

Well it is a presidential year and this is my first opportunity to write to you in my new role as President of the Class of '62. If you were wondering, the election process is far more like the Iowa caucuses than the New Jersey primary.

While many of you will think that our great 45th Reunion was just yesterday, it has in fact, been more than a year since we had such a terrific time back "on the Banks" and adds emphasis to the really special events that we would like to plan for our 50th Reunion in 2012. All of this needs your help and cooperation. First, in trying to attend and second, if you have the time and the inclination, we would love help with planning the events for that memorable weekend in 2012.

I know I can count on our class officers who have worked so hard in the past on these projects: Barry Pavelec, Dick Anderson, Geoff Gould, Roger Wyman, Tony Oliva, John Hendricks, and Barney Hoffman; however, we really need everybody's help in planning such an important event. So send in any suggestions, ideas, and requests (as wild as they may seem) to any of us care of this website or to me directly at sjfreedman@nmmlaw.com and we will try as best we can to fit them into the schedule of events. As many know, I have already prevailed upon Don Resnicoff to put together his famous fraternity house band that we enjoyed so much 50 years ago to provide some dance music for us at the 50th Reunion.

You may also be aware that thanks to the University's new consolidation and corporate image making, not only have they eliminated the identity of Rutgers College but have now have cut down the respective class news items in the Rutgers Magazine to 200 words. For that reason, we have asked Geoff Gould to direct the bulk of his efforts to continuing Class of '62 news on this website and we ask you to check in at least monthly to see what may be happening. In addition, as Tony Oliva has urged you in the past, we would like to have your current email addresses for ease of direct communication with you with news about the College and our class in particular.
Please continue to tune into this website, keep those cards, letters and emails coming, and most of all, stay well because we are looking forward to seeing each of you "on the Banks" in May 2012.

Regards,

Stuart Freedman
