After lunch, join your classmates for a golf outing starting at 1:15 pm. at our Academy Golf Course. Everyone is welcome to play – spouses, family members and guests.

Other activities offered from 3:00—5:00 p.m: Campus tours will be available. Troopers and others with riding experience may want to participate in a trail ride with other classmates and guests still nimble enough to handle a horse.

The usual activity is a row on Thursday afternoon about 3:30 p.m. with the 50 year group. Come on down and enjoy the scene. This is a magnificent facility that was dedicated in October 2012. If any of our classmates have an interest in skeet and trap, Ed Little from the school will be on hand to host and facilitate anyone who would like to partake. This is another unique facility that has been upgraded and is situated on the far northern edge of campus. Note: Spouses and guests are welcome at ALL activities. You also may attend classes, the schedule for which will be available at registration. We think you will find the modern Culver classroom facilities stunning and the teaching methods inspiring if you have not been back to Culver recently. Thursday’s reception and dinner at 7:00p.m. will be our official kickoff event. This will take place in the White DeVries Rowing Center. The dress is casual and comfortable. Friday, May 19: Enjoy breakfast with our class at Café Max, a popular downtown Culver eatery. The walls are adorned with historic photos of the school and the Town of Culver.

We will hold a class meeting at 10:30 am in the Eppley Auditorium, Eilleen Dicke Theatre (located in the lower level of Eppley) with Jim Power, Head of Schools, two CMA cadets, and two CGA students. The students do not hold back and you’ll be the first 50th reunion class to meet with Jim Power. Don’t miss it! This will be followed by a luncheon in the Legion Memorial Building, Heritage Room. Dress to this point is casual. We will reconvene as a class in Eppley Auditorium for a Culver Legion hosted presentation featuring the State of the School from Jim Power and the annual presentation of the Graduate of the Year. PAGE 3 We will form for the Iron Gate Re-creation Ceremony at 2:45 pm under the direction of CMA military staff and first classmen from the Corps. Attire for the Iron Gate Ceremony will be our class uniform: khaki pants, navy blazers, class polo shirt, dark shoes, and class hat.

The class uniform will be worn for the parade. You may have noted in the paragraph above mention of two parades. As one of the weekend’s honored groups, along with the 25th and Old Guard classes, we have been invited by the school to Pass In Review prior to the Corps of Cadets’ weekly garrison parade. Sunday, May 21: Begins with a class Farewell Breakfast in the White-DeVries Rowing Center where casual attire is welcome. Catholic Services will be held in the Memorial Chapel at 9:00 a.m. The Protestant Chapel Services start at 10:30 a.m. The Honor Guard, Four-Gun Drill, Lancer Band, CGA Drill Team, CGA Equestriennes and Lancer Platoon perform at 12:15 p.m. at the Riding Hall. Lunch is available at the Mess Hall which completes our reunion schedule. What else should I know?? Culver observes Eastern Daylight Time (New York time). The speed limit in the town of Culver is 20 mph, and is strictly enforced during major campus events such as Reunion Weekend. The posted limits on rural roads surrounding the campus are higher, but vary with the presence of children. Please observe speed limits carefully. To alleviate the parking problems, the Academy runs a very convenient shuttle service throughout the weekend, which emanates from the two big parking areas we should use the field north of Memorial Chapel and the (former) motel parking lot. PAGE 4 UNIFORM, SIRS AND LADIES! There will be no squad leaders to send you back to your room if your shoes aren't shined. Nevertheless, you will want to be aware of the appropriate dress for the various gatherings during Reunion Weekend. Our 50th Class Reunion uniform should consist of khaki trousers, blue blazer (Navy is preferable), class polo shirt, dark shoes, class hat and Culver’s 50th Reunion medallion. The class polo shirt, class hat, and the reunion medallion will all be given to you upon arrival at registration. We will wear our class uniform for the Iron Gate Ceremony, our class photo, and, of course, the Garrison Parade. Spouses and guests should dress accordingly for these occasions. We have requested perfect climate, but May weather in Culver is uncertain, as you may recall. It may be hot or chilly. Pack a jacket and an umbrella. In the event of rain, outdoor events will be moved inside, but you will still have to get from place to place. Flat shoes for ladies are a must, since some events are on grass and soft ground. If you plan to go horseback riding, riding attire and appropriate riding boots/shoes are a must. SPECIAL REQUESTS – TRANSPORTATION AND DIETARY In our last newsletter, we reminded you that the school strives to anticipate all possible needs, but it is still a campus built for teenagers. If you need special assistance, please advise the Alumni Office in advance, so they can help as much as practical. In addition, please let the Alumni Office know of any dietary restrictions they should accommodate. Most of you have done this via your registration forms. We look forward to seeing you in May! .

  • Retro House Dress Apron
    MS. DIOR’S Retro House Dress Apron by Trish Vernazza 1952 was the year of “double-duty” fashion. !is was a reflection of the economy, the drab aftermath of the deprivations of World War II, and the need for practically. Women desired fashionable, flirty, and sophisticated styles in their wardrobe. !ere was a need for a combination of sweaters, skirts, and blouses to create a larger wardrobe along with a staple of day dresses. !e housedress served both as a cover-up and a dressing gown. Worn in the day and removed before early evening, they were a necessary staple for household chores or running out to do daily errands. Made out of simple, washable fabrics, they still needed to be feminine, stylish, and easy to put on and remove. Some housedresses even came with a matching oven glove! Ultra-feminine designs abounded that showcased tiny waists, huge skirts, and rounded shoulders. Christian Dior was, at the time, the most famous couturier that established Paris as the leader of world fashion. On a Paris street, a well-dressed young woman in a copy of Dior’s New Look had the clothes nearly torn off her body by enraged housewives. When it was time to create a new collection, Christian Dior had a ritual: He would retreat to his garden and sit among the flowers. !is is where he would sketch out his designs, inspired by what was blooming. As Dior once said, “Elegance must be the right combination of distinction, naturalness, care, and simplicity.” Other designers wanted to shock, to impress, to dress the working woman, or to pursue an artistic ideal.

  • Nelly Don's 1916 Pink Gingham Apron Frock: an Illustration of the Middle
    Whang and Haar Fashion and Textiles 2014, 1:18 http://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s40691-014-0018-1 RESEARCH Open Access Nelly Don’s 1916 pink gingham apron frock: an illustration of the middle-class American housewife’s shifting role from producer to consumer Mikyoung Whang1* and Sherry Haar2 * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract 1Communication and Fine Arts, Centenary College, 400 Jefferson St., Nelly Don created a stylish, practical, affordable pink gingham housedress in 1916, Hackettstown, NJ 07840, USA quickly selling out her first order of 216 dresses at Peck’s Dry Goods Company in Full list of author information is Kansas City. This study investigated the reasons behind the success of her dress, available at the end of the article and found that during the early 20th century, women’s roles shifted from that of producer to consumer, and that clothing was a visible reflection of this shift. Specific design attributes and social appeal contributed to the success of the housedress. Integrating trendy design elements into an affordable housedress along with the growing demand for a stylish, yet practical housedress induced by consumption culture in the early 20th century facilitated the success of Nelly Don’s pink gingham housedress. As such, Nelly Don’s 1916 housedress reflected social and cultural change in this transitional period, and exemplified the shifting role of the middle-class American housewife by offering an alternative to the traditional Mother Hubbard housedress as well as a lifestyle free of long hours spent sewing. Keywords: Nelly Don; Housedress; Consumerism; Housewife; Women’sroles Introduction Nell Donnelly Reed (maiden name, Ellen Quinlan) (1889–1991) (Figure 1), often called “The grand lady of the garment industry,” established the Donnelly Garment Company (DGC) in 1919 in Kansas City, Missouri, with her first husband, Paul Donnelly (Snider 1991).

  • Accompanying Label Information for Respect the Dress Exhibit
    Accompanying Label Content for Virtual Tour of Respect the Dress: Clothing and Activism In U.S. Women’s History Section I: Introduction R.E.S.P.E.C.T. the Dress: Clothing and Activism in U.S. Women’s History The year 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment. It took many decades for advocates to reach the successful passage of federal-level suffrage for women in the United States. In the century that followed, challenges toward women’s right to vote, to hold office, and to participate fully and completely in American society remain. Advocates for and against women’s expanded rights have used clothing to define or support their mission. From bloomer costumes to bra burning, the story of women’s rights activism in the United States is filled with references to how women dress. Radical fashion choices are often given as examples revealing the equally radical behaviors of activists. Yet few women adopted the dress reform style known as bloomers in the 1850s or burned their bras during the women’s liberation movement protests in the 1970s. The 19th Amendment legally prohibited voter discrimination based on sex. Suffragists, the name U.S. activists advocating for women’s voting rights called themselves, played on and influenced the 1910s fashion for white lacy dresses, allowing them to express affiliation with women’s rights advocacy while also maintaining a less radical choice in dress. Suffragists used the three colors of white, purple, and yellow for sashes, buttons, and flags. Feminists in the 1970s and in the new millennium continue to wear these colors as a signal of support to earlier activists.

  • Department of Media Studies 30 Hp Fashion Studies Master Thesis
    Department of Media Studies 30 hp Fashion Studies Master Thesis Spring semester 2020 Supervisor: Klas Nyberg Abstract This thesis aims to highlight the smock-dress within the context of Soviet-Estonia during the post-war epoch, ca. 1950s until 1990s. Through Mauss’s socio-anthropological tripoint view, the concepts and identities of the smock-dress are studied from the angles of biology, sociology and psychology. The intention is to show its widespread use amongst Soviet- Estonian women and their remembrance of it, in accordance with the Soviet ideological structures. Using semi-structured interviews, I have assembled oral history from women who attain this historical retrospective, aiming to depict the smock-dress as both a concept and an object, thus functioning as an emblem of Soviet society rather than a historical artefact. Relying on the terms nostalgia, socio-cultural belonging and phenomenology, I seek to capture the smock-dress as both a vestiary phenomenon and representation of social structures. Thus, creating a dual identity, individual and collective, through its usage, showing that sartorial fashion encompasses more than just emotions and promoted stylistics.
