Dear Alumnus,
You are invited to attend The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine Annual Alumni Reunion Weekend September 5-7, 2008. We are holding a variety of events to welcome you back to campus. We begin the weekend on Friday with an outstanding continuing education course highlighting the many expert faculty we have at the College of Veterinary Medicine. Our keynote speaker will be NASA astronaut, Dr. Rick Linnehan (DVM '85), who will speak on his recent mission to the International Space Station aboard STS-123. Our traditional dinner, class reunions, Alumni Society Annual Meeting and auction will be held that evening at the Buckeye Hall of Fame Café. Saturday highlights include: the Alumni Society Board Meeting, The Dean's "State of the College" address, the tailgate and the Ohio State Buckeyes vs. the Ohio University Bobcats football game. Please consider sponsoring a student to attend the dinner on Friday or the tailgate on Saturday. The Ohio State Alumni Association also will be hosting events that you can participate in on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Please see the enclosed materials for complete details of all the weekend's events including football ticket and parking information.
This year we are offering an opportunity for all alumni to register on line and pay by credit card. We are partnering with the Ohio State Alumni Association to provide this frequently-requested service and encourage all alumni to help us in this transition by utilizing this new process at http://vet.osu.edu/Alumni.htm. If you do not have computer access, you can call the alumni office at 614-292-9696 and we will register you by phone. If you choose to mail in your registration, please make checks payable to the Ohio State Alumni Association.
Football tickets for alumni continue to be limited and will be distributed on a first come first served basis. In order to purchase football tickets you must be a member of both the Ohio State Alumni Association and the Ohio State Veterinary Alumni Society. Each person will be limited to purchasing two game tickets or two total tickets per household, and they must be purchased with the barbecue. Confirmation notices will be sent as soon as possible. If you already have tickets to this game via other sources, we ask that you refrain from ordering tickets through us and plan to join your fellow alumni and friends of the College of Veterinary Medicine at the board meeting, "State of the College" address and tailgate.
Interim Dean John Hubbell, the faculty and staff of the collete and the Ohio State Veterinary Medicine Alumni Society look forward to welcoming you back to campus. Please call me on my cell phone at 614-432-3323 if you have any questions or if there is anything we can do to help make your visit more enjoyable. We look forward to seeing you in September.
Sincerely,
Michelle Harcha, DVM ('85)
