50TH REUNION
Welcome to the Suffolk University
Class of 1962 50th Reunion book...
A memory book for 1962 alumni of Suffolk University,
Suffolk Law School and New England School of Art and Design (NESAD).
We know we can’t totally recapture the past, but we hope we have caught
enough to bring each of you fond memories of your student days…and
something you can finally show your family and friends (who may still not
be convinced that you actually graduated).
This book has been a labor of love, legwork and teamwork by the
members of the 50th Reunion Committee and all of you who provided
materials and photographs from your personal archives.
We could not have done this without a lot of help, so let us express our
sincerest thanks to the administration of Suffolk University, particularly, the
staffs of the Alumni Engagement Office and the Joseph Moakley Archive
& Institute, for their encouragement, support and tons of help. They made
this book possible.
[Ed Note: We also wish to acknowledge K.C. and C.D. whose actions 50
years ago made this book necessary.]
Finally, we dedicate this book to the memory of our classmates who have
passed on.

50TH REUNION
Welcome to the Suffolk University
Class of 1962 50th Reunion book...
A memory book for 1962 alumni of Suffolk University,
Suffolk Law School and New England School of Art and Design (NESAD).
We know we can’t totally recapture the past, but we hope we have caught
enough to bring each of you fond memories of your student days…and
something you can finally show your family and friends (who may still not
be convinced that you actually graduated).
This book has been a labor of love, legwork and teamwork by the
members of the 50th Reunion Committee and all of you who provided
materials and photographs from your personal archives.
We could not have done this without a lot of help, so let us express our
sincerest thanks to the administration of Suffolk University, particularly, the
staffs of the Alumni Engagement Office and the Joseph Moakley Archive
& Institute, for their encouragement, support and tons of help. They made
this book possible.
[Ed Note: We also wish to acknowledge K.C. and C.D. whose actions 50
years ago made this book necessary.]
Finally, we dedicate this book to the memory of our classmates who have
passed on.
