Spring seems to be upon us and lots will be happening at Marshall. Alumni Weekend is our big focus right now, plans are coming together for a wonderful weekend full of activities. Mark your calendars for April 21st and 22nd and plan on attending. Marshall’s campus will be blooming with spring and you can see it all. Friday the 21st my alumni board will have their spring meeting and planning sessions. Friday evening there will be a reception at the Joan C. Edwards Playhouse and we will go to the student production of William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. Over a few blocks at the Renaissance Center, J. Mark McVey, one of our award winners, will be in concert, so both of these events will make for a great Friday night. Saturday the 10th (1996), 50th (1955), 60th (1945) and Grand Alumni classes will be honored with a luncheon and recognition. The annual Green and White football game will be played and Dr. Kopp will be officially installed as our new university president. This will also be an open house day on campus for prospective students, whew!! Not sure we can get anything else in, but we can and we will. The big finale is our Alumni Awards Banquet, with many great MU alums being honored -- Troy Brown, J. Mark McVey, Jim Gibson, Barbara Guyer, and my own wonderful husband, Jeff Porter, being honored. Sunday afternoon there is a ceremony to honor Marshall students being inducted into Who’s Who on American Colleges. So come on in to town and be around all this fun, you won’t want to miss it. Sincerely,
