New 1908 Society Embraces Senior Alumni
Topics: Relationships-NetworksEducation-Business Education6f3368a93fbb4dc44496be5e9cf733e6 For the Schools most senior graduates, the new 1908 Society is a wish come true. In focus groups, they voiced a clear desire for more opportunities to get together. The 1908 Societys chief function is to honor that request by inviting every HBS graduate who has reached the 60th Reunion mark back to campus each fall for a reunion.
It is wonderful that HBS is giving special recognition to its senior alumni with the formation of the 1908 Society, says 102-year-old Albert H. (Al) Gordon (MBA 25). I am proud to be the chair of the Society, and I look forward to our first annual reunion this fall. Nothing will please me more than attending many more Society reunions.
The Societys reunions will include special programming and social opportunities patterned after the traditional five-year reunion celebrations. All graduates of classes that have reached the 60th Reunion are charter members of the Society. Each year, a new class will be inducted. More than sixteen hundred invitations have gone out to graduates for the inaugural 1908 Society reunion, September 30October 1, 2004.
The traditional five-year reunions for senior alumni the 60th, 65th, and 70th reunions will continue to take place, with class events on Friday evening and Saturday morning.
