Out of the Twilight Zone: Celebrating
the 50th Anniversary of the Twilight Zone, as well as a full celebration of the
future of Antioch College!

With the incredibly good news about our
beloved alma mater this weekend, I’ve seen a lot of interest pick up in Reunion
’09 in Yellow Springs. We’d love to see tons of people on campus and celebrating
this victory for humanity!

We have a tentative schedule for Reunion
online right now here. You’ll see that not all events will require
a a registration fee—we tried to keep as many events as open as possible,
including the State of the College, featuring members of the Board Pro Tem.
Additionally, there are reduced fees for alumni who have graduated within the
past 10 years. Registration forms will be mailed soon, and we will have on-line
registration up and running soon as well. If you have suggestions for additions
to the schedule or changes, please e-mail us at reunion@revivalfund.org. We have to lock in the schedule as
soon as possible, so please send in your suggestions by July 7,
2009.

FAQ’s on the Alumni Board Election

Date: 7/2/2009 to 7/16/2009
Here is a comprehensive description, mostly from Fred Kraus, longtime
staff aide to the Alumni Board’s Nominating Committee, of the procedure
for the last election and the subsequent filling of a vacant seat on
the board.
 
The process of voting for many years has been to
send each alum a self-standing hard-copy ballot via snail mail.  In the
past five years we have also incorporated online voting as an option. 
Some have proposed that we  eventually move to all-electronic voting,
but that would eliminate a sizable portion of the alumni and thus is
not under active consideration.
