Greetings to the Great Class of '05!

There's '05 weeks until Reunions!

In the meantime, here's the mid-April summary from your '05 Class Officers:

Five Topics:

1) Honorary Classmate Nominations

Chevy Chase h'05, k'41, k'75 has not registered for Reunions yet.

If for some reason you are in contact with Mr. Chase and you wish to extend your classmate an invitation, you are welcome to do so.

You are also encouraged to consider:

a) Registering for Reunions if you have not already done so, and

b) Nominating a well-deserving member of the local or global Princeton community to join our class. Someone like Don Betterton h'60 h'05, who directed Princeton's financial aid program for more than 30 years *and* established the women's varsity soccer program. Nomination form in email.

2) Reunions

As a reminder, Reunions is May 22nd to May 25th at Good Ol' Nassau.

Housing assignments should be announced on or around May 8th.

Register for Reunions here.

Check for answers to FAQs - link in email.

For more information on the classmate assistance fund, please contact us via the link in email

*We may be joined by an honorary classmate or two, depending on the above.

3) Mini-Reunions

To warm up, we have mini-Reunions ('05-sponsored Happy Hours) scheduled in the next few weeks at places around the country including...

SF on April 17th,

DC on April 23rd,

Denver on May 2nd or 9th, and

NYC on May 7th,

Invites have been sent out to classmates listed in those areas, but if you happen to be in the right place at the right time please feel free to RSVP!

Email us here if you'd like to be the point person for a happy hour in your neighborhood this spring. There's still time to practice for Reunions!

We've had 5-15 Tigers at each of our recent mini-Reunions, and we hope you can join us if there's one convenient for you.

*We're working on a post-Reunions gathering in SoCal as well. Stay tuned.

All links to the above RSVP forms available to the class via email.

4) Class Dues

...Are $5.00 this year, and you may pay at the end of the Reunions checkout.

Class dues subsidize administrative costs and non-Reunions events and gear.

You may also pay above.

5) Annual Giving

Annual Giving provides the "margin of excellence;" incremental funding for initiatives such as a funded summer service internship program available to every current Princeton student. Programs like this multiply the impact of a Princeton education and bring positive returns outside the campus gates.

Our '05 AG team is working to make an even bigger impact to mark our major Reunion year. If you haven't already made a gift, please consider giving here.

Any amount is appreciated. There are multiple ways to pay, including Venmo.

Thank you to the many classmates who have already donated to AG!

-----

That's all for today, folks. You'll receive a few more "Princeton emails" in the weeks to come, as there will be more-frequent Reunions updates and

* a call for alumni class officer nominations *

but in the meantime please reach out via email with any questions.

In the Spirit of '05 Service and Tiger Cheer,

-Your Princeton '05 Alumni Class Officers
