Class of 1978<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

College years are a time in life when we make deep and lasting friendships. And at Earlham, where we shared so many essential values with our classmates, those friendships are especially meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And for many of us, the memories of our experiences at Earlham during those key years in our lives still have rich sentimental value and shaped the adults we would become in so many important ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us for our 45th<\/sup> year reunion to help us rekindle those friendships! And to re-live those cherished memories that shaped who we are (even as our memory for other things has faded due to our advancing age)! In the meantime, join our class of 1978 Facebook group<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your giving goal<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n
