Class of 1965

The Yale Class of 1965 Website

 

Welcome to Yale '65’s home page.

If you’ve never visited before, take a minute to look around. Visit the Photo Album section – we’ve got pictures from the reunion (thanks, Dan Hogan) as well as a bunch taken at the '05 Harvard game by Carter LaPrade. If you have pictures you’d like to share with classmates, send them to webmaster@yale65.org and we’ll paste them in.

We’re working to make yale65.org a lively and dynamic site, with news and event information plus plenty of input from you. It’ll keep evolving, so check in frequently. In fact, we've added a feature. On the menu to the left you'll find "Speeches, poems, tributes." Click there and it'll take you to the moving and eloquent talk Ron Wilmore delivered at last year's class dinner in New York, and a poem in memory of departed classmates written and read at the dinner by John Schenck. 

Questions, comments and contributions to yale65.org should be directed to webmaster@yale65.org or to john@johnschenck.com.
