Looking Back
For the class of 1970, this year marks their 50th Anniversary graduating from Mohawk College. A few 1970 graduates share memories from their college days and why they enjoy re-connecting with their classmates.
“We were the first Rec Grads at Mohawk and most of us, who wanted jobs in the field, were hired. Dean Skip Stanbridge, was our "Godfather", he made sure that we had enough exposure through our field placement assignments that the transition to future jobs was very smooth.” – George Morasse ‘70, Recreation Leadership
“[At our class reunion] we look forward to meeting with old friends and reigniting relationships and having a special thought for those who sadly are no longer with us. We are enjoying catching up on 50 years since graduation and having fun together.” – Earle Paquin ‘70, Lorne Hodgson ‘70, Clark McAlpine ‘70, Harold Krause ‘70, and Graham Bielby ‘71, Textile Engineering Technology
“Even though we could not have our 50th Hamilton and District School of Nursing (HADSON) reunion as planned, the Zoom reunion was a great substitute. It felt like we were catching up after a weekend away from residence. After 50 years we're still in touch with all but eight out of 64 classmates.” – Jan Brimer ‘70, Nursing
