We graduated in 1953 from a small university with fewer than 1,000 students when we were there. That university has now grown in size and stature to over 20,000 students with many faculties and a world-wide reputation in several of its specialties. We honour the university we attended and we are proud of what McMaster University has become today. In 2008 we celebrated the 55th anniversary of our graduation by returning to the campus on Saturday, May 31. The next milestone comes in 2013 with the 60th anniversary of our graduation. In the 2012 Newsletter you'll find the first information about our (modest) plans. Yes, we will be fewer and travel will be a greater challenge, but it will happen. Book it!
