Alumni Weekend Recap!

Wow! What a weekend. There's way too much to write about in a single post, so we'll be posting numerous times throughout the week to recap our great reunion. While you wait for our crack team of authors to properly document the event, you can sate your appetite for memories by visiting Daniel D. Bruce Photography for exclusive pictures of the event. Dan was all over Troy this weekend and took hundreds of photos of you all. The best ones have been uploaded to his website for you to view and purchase if you'd like keepsakes. He should have all of the photos uploaded by mid-week, so keep checking back. Of course, we'll announce when all of them have been uploaded.

Soon, we will also post the photos to our Flickr account!
