Four More Months ...
Until reunion! Get ready for a deluge of reunion-related electronic and snail mail correspondence over the next few months. The reunion committee has been planning numerous awesome events, and no detail has been overlooked. There will be lots of opportunities for input, so please, when prompted (or even when not), let the committee know what you want out of YOUR reunion weekend. As I see it, you have two choices: (a) be at Williams on June 7-10, or (b) spend the next five years mired in interminable depression after hearing wondrous tales of our weekend in paradise.
Speaking of nostalgia, current Williams students apparently wish they grew up with the Class of 1997, considering that Robert Van Winkle, known to all in our generation as Vanilla Ice, will be performing on campus this Friday:

And no, I'm not making this up. For those of you (and yes, I know who you are) dropping all weekend plans to see Vanilla in person, you should stick around for Saturday, when the Williams men's and women's basketball teams host a first-round NESCAC playoff doubleheader, playing Tufts and Wesleyan, respectively.
As if all that excitement wasn't enough, the new Paresky Center -- giant fireplace, movie theater, pub and all -- opens this weekend (which also happens to be Winter Carnival, or as I knew it, last chance to volunteer on the ski slopes to satisfy the gym requirement) as well:

Of course, if you can't make it this weekend, you'll have your chance to hang out in this spectacular new facility -- everybody now -- between June 7 and 10.
As momentous as this weekend's events in Billsville are, I promise that what we have in store for June will top even the presence of Vanilla Ice in Williamstown. Stay tuned for more info coming soon at:

Oh, and as if you haven't received enough reminders, don't forget to contribute to our 10th year gift ($60,000 and counting!) -- only 25 giving days left!!!

Additional note. More detailed renderings of the future of campus post-Sawyer demolition are now available at the link I provided a few months back:
