A rich mix

Congratulations on your recent Lehigh Bulletin publication, which I have been receiving for so many years.

I love the paper selected, the articles and the overall presentation of photos and articles, especially The Revolution, The Gift of Life and A Hero's Story. This Bulletin contained a rich mix of technology, history, sports and special articles.

You are to be commended. Keep up the very good work.

A hero's story

I found the Hero's story in the summer issue fascinating.

The mention of '536 Delaware Ave.' got my attention since it was my address as a member of Alpha Sigma Phi from 1951 to 1954. Since I believe 'Alpha Sigma Phi' became part of the Lehigh fraternity group in 1929, what was the relationship with 'Sigma Phi' fraternity that Willis belonged to in 1928 at the same address? Any ideas? Thanks for continuing to produce an interesting alumni publication.

Best photo choice?

I've intended for some time to get this brief note off to you simply to say that I thought the Summer 2016 issue was one of the best in a long while. My thanks. I've also wanted to ask you: What is that black froth seemingly emanating from our champion swimmer's nose (page 21)? Surely a more complimentary pic of the young lady was available.

Editor's note: Yes, there is! See above.

Lifetime friendships

Hi Tim! We are loyal class of ’83 grads who are still best friends since the first day of freshman year! Here's a pic from my annual Lehigh Girls Weekend at the Jersey shore (Seaside Park). Wanted to share our spirit and thought it might be a fun inclusion in the Bulletin about lifetime friendships.

Editor's note: Karen, thanks so much for the note and the wonderful picture. It's always great to hear about lifelong friendships made here at Lehigh. We are happy to run the photo here to share with your fellow alums. As you'll see in the Class Notes section of this issue, we are running a wedding photo—and going forward, we ask our readers to send even more. If you'd like to share news of births, gatherings and other celebrations, please send to your class correspondents, and we'll do our best to make room for them.
