Jacques Dubuc, Class Leader, said he and his classmates have celebrated every fifth-year reunion since 1953. 鈥淲e have faithfully participated and contributed to every reunion since graduation,鈥 says Dubuc. 鈥淲e鈥檝e also formed lifelong friendships, holding a few out-of-town gatherings between reunions that were also well-attended. We keep in touch regularly.鈥

The 1953 Engineering Class is thankful for their 海角社区 experience and has gone on to help many students in many ways. As a class, they have contributed almost $400,000 to undergraduate student awards, seminar room renovations and most recently the Class of 1953 SURE Award. They were the eldest group of classmates that attended the Jubilee Luncheon this year.
