TH class of 1970 50REUNION Claremont McKenna

FROM 1970

TO 2020

April 2020

Members of the Dear Classmates, 50th Reunion Committee Here is the reward for your gracious replies to our relentless pleas to fill out Class of 1970 the Reunion Memory Book questionnaire. Fifty-nine of you responded prior to the 1 February deadline Thus, almost 50% of the living members of our class took the time to respond. Thank you for your efforts. Dan Altemus, co-chair

In addition to the individual responses, the Memory Book contains a class Dan Caton directory, obituaries for deceased classmates, and a list of classmates for whom we simply have no contact information (if you have a line on any of these John Elliott classmates, please let us know). Finally, and perhaps the most fun, are the collage of photos, some showing what we looked like then and others of how Mert Goldman some of us look now. Dave Officer,co-chair If you have not yet registered for our reunion, please do so now. While you should have received a reservation form in the mail, it is easier to go online at Brian Putt online.cmc.edu/alumni-weekend to register.

We kick things off with an informal reception on Thursday evening, April 23 and wrap up the festivities Sunday morning, April 26.

If you are pressed for time, prioritize Saturday, April 25. There is the annual Golden Medallion awards luncheon (everyone gets a medal) and the class photo is taken afterwards. Throughout the day there are both structured and unstructured events ranging from a one-on-one session with the College President, Hiram Chodosh, target shooting in Bauer Center, tours of the new Roberts Center, and plenty of time to just relax and catch up with your classmates and friends. A full schedule of the weekend can be found online at the above-referenced website.

Saturday is capped off with the class dinner at the Athenaeum.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Sincerely,

Dan Altemus, Co-Chair Dave Officer,Co-Chair

What have you been up to over the past 50 years? After CMC, I attended Cal State LA for a year of graduate studies. I became interested in the nascent computer industry and switched gears, taking a year of basic and advanced programming/software training. I was recruited as a member of the three-member development team for Thrifty Drugs along with IBM on the beta test system of the first virtual machine. I was the assembler language specialist and was dreaming in hexadecimal. In 1973, I was “recruited” into the family wholesale diamond business, from which I branched out on my own in 1984, and in which I am still very active.
