50th Reunion Logo - The Wild Life Class

 

New Class Digital Yearbook Launched!

 

Dear Classmates,

 

Our 55th Reunion is six months away, but the Class of 1971 55th Reunion digital yearbook, "Exploring the Wild Life Class," is here right now for you to peruse, enjoy and contribute to. We engaged a talented designer to make it easier on the eyes, and Class technology chair Alan Usas has performed his magic behind the curtain to make it happen.

 

But it’s still a work in progress because it needs all of you to jump in, update your own profile, add favorite photos (especially those taken since our 50th), and write a few lines about what you are up to and what’s on your mind. There are also a couple of open-ended questions to mull over – and if you didn’t write an essay for our doorstopper 50th Reunion yearbook, you can do so now.

 

Our goal is to inspire connections among Class members: among longtime friends; roommates or clubmates you’ve lost touch with; or someone you never knew well but learn you share a common interest. What you write will give classmates a reason to reach out to you, and as you read what others have posted, you’ll likely find someone you’d like to reach out to. 

 

We encourage everyone to add personal remembrances to the memorials, especially for the 40 who’ve died since our last Reunion. Class Memorialist Mark Swanson, with an assist from Chris Connell, has expanded those PAW memorials for the yearbook.

 

Follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Class website princeton71.org, click LOGIN at the upper right corner, and enter your username and password.*
  2. When logged in, click "Start My Journey" on the home page in the shaded yearbook area to access the new yearbook.
  3. Click "START HERE" and check out the spiffy new Class directory or browse the featured content under "Explorers' Correspondence" and "Guides, Companions & Legends."
  4. Update your own profile by clicking "Edit My Page." Hit “Save” as you complete filling out each page.
  5. When finished, click “Cancel” at the top to return to the yearbook to view your updated directory profile. You can go back and revise it at any time.

*If you've forgotten your password, don't recall your username, or haven't registered on the Class website, use the buttons shown after you have clicked LOGIN.

 

If the directory page and its features are still a bit confusing, take a look at the trail tips here.

 

The directory has souped-up search and filter features at the top to find classmates who live nearby, those who have made recent updates, and more. Don't miss the new map feature that places a pin for each classmate at their location.

 

We are launching the yearbook as a lead-in to the upcoming celebration of our 55th Reunion. But it will remain open and active long afterward, providing an easy path to check in on classmates near and far and for updates as our stories continue to unfold.

 

For questions, guidance, kudos and complaints, write us at yearbook@princeton71.org. And a hearty locomotive to Alan, Mark, Reunions Chair Jeff Hammond, designer Amy Hepler h’71, tech gurus Cary and John Bruestle h’71, and everyone who’s helped pull this off!
