Hamilton College held reunion weekend and it was Dave's 50th! 65 members of the Class of '63 traveled to Clinton NY. It was great fun seeing the 5 math majors and many friends. The nickname "Hamster Tech" arose long before Dave's class. It was a really special weekend for me (Susan) to meet delightful people and enjoy the traditions and rituals of the College.
