Let's share the memories... Each year, we will update this section with photos, tall tales and fun from the annual reunion! Let's start with last year....

Several hundred former Parsons College graduates, faculty, administration, and spouses attended Parsons Wildcat Weekend, May 30 - June 2, 2003 in Fairfield, Iowa.

Organized by George Jordan III, this was a commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the closing of Parsons College, on June 2, 1973.

Activities ranged from a memorabilia exhibit at the Carnegie Historical Museum, to forums and discussion groups. A sock hop provided fun and gave a chance for all to "kick up their heels"!

Mayor Ed Malloy proclaimed June 2, 2003 as "Parsons College Day", and a march from the old library to Henn Mansion (with bagpipes music from Dr. Terry Cochran) gave final tribute to the activities of the weekend.

Thanks to all who came and participated!
