Class of 1973
Welcome, Class of 1973!
What better way to meet those with whom you can share the memories of college years and your lives now? Take this opportunity to re-connect with your classmates and appreciate firsthand the great things happening at Wheaton today.
Bear with me Class of 1973, I'm going to try to post news of classmates on our site. Rose Weaver, whose energy is boundless, was recently honored at the Third Annual Women of Excellence Awards luncheon, hosted by the Women's Center of Rhode Island. Rose (now Dr. Rose) is an assistant professor of counseling and educational psychology at Rhode Island College, and she was honored for her writing/producing/performing of Menopause Mama. Links for Rose are www.roseweaver.com or www.menopausemama.com.
Dr. Victoria L. Johnson was recently hired as Executive Director of Inter-Faith Housing Alliance, an organization that works with homeless families in Philadelphia. Additional information about her work can be obtained at Http://www.i-fha.org/Contents/News/IFHAw2005.pdf.

Our class gift supports Wheaton through the Annual Fund. This year's Annual Fund goal is $3.3 million. The Annul Fund helps bridge the gap between tuition revenue and the actual cost of educating students. While endowed funds are invested to ensure the College's future strength, the Annual Fund acts as a "living endowment" allowing 100% of your gift to be spent immediately on the College's most important priorities.
Our Annual Fund gifts are vitally important in supporting a wide variety of programs and educational experiences for our students and maintaining a select student body and committed faculty.
Gifts of every amount to the Annual Fund are important--no matter the size--our collective giving and participation counts. For those who can consider it, one way to set a goal for personal annual giving is to join the Mary Lyon Society.
Even just a small donation can help out! Please send in your contribution today!
