Princeton's the only university I know of that holds reunions
for its graduates of every year, every year. I honestly don't know
why the practice isn't more popular. This was my third reunion, and
seventh time at Reunions.
 |
Nassau Hall at night. |
 |
Me and An-Lon, back in Campus Club. |
 |
The Campus pool room, full of alums. |
 |
The Band party was rockin' so hard that the room was
shaking, which explains the blurriness. |
 |
Jon is the only thing holding up this tent. |
 |
At the Wildcats' alumnae arch sing. I tried to get a
photo with Kate's mouth at its widest. I came only moderately
close. |
 |
There were many, many alumnae present. |
 |
"It's been eight years, guys. I don't remember this
solo at all." |
 |
Yes she did. |
 |
Adam shows off his Band chevron. |
 |
The Band's Fred E. Fox '39 Memorial Concert. |
 |
Band alumni, "goin' back..." |
 |
The beginning of Children of Sanchez, the greatest
song EVER. I took up glockenspiel in order to play
this song. The framed sheet music hangs over my bed. |
 |
The end of Children of Sanchez, the greatest song
EVER. I wish you could hear the music over the cheering. |
 |
Uchenna Ukaegbu, president-for-life of the Funny Last
Names Club. |
 |
Jim and Karin, in full "Sur-Five-Or" regalia. |
 |
Becca and Josh. |
 |
Chris and Sarah, at the Band Reunions tent.. |
 |
The P-Rade is always a highlight. I always get
sunburned and dehydrated, and this year was no disappointment. |
 |
The Band marches at the beginning of the P-Rade
... and at the end ... and this year, also in the middle. |
 |
The oldest class present. Imagine being your own 80th Reunion everywhere you went. |
 |
The notorious steam-powered-pipe-organ-mobile. |
 |
Get bitten by the Tiger Bug. Or something. |
 |
I love this band. I dearly envy their uniforms. |
 |
This will be me in a few years. |
 |
We're not your grandfather's marching band. |
 |
My favorite of all of Princeon's gargoyles, the
Literate Ape. |
