institutions that have this kind of history and I know it felt pretty special to everyone who was able to attend to know that we have all passed through this place and are also part of its history. You can either resent time and the passing of it or you can embrace it and welcome it with its beauty and wonder. The handing off of youth to its next generation and trusting that it’s ok. t I no longer look for heads of dark hair at the Hilltop because I know this is not my class. My class has grey hair or no hair and yet, as anyone who knows what this is like, I don’t see only the grey hair that everyone else sees but I also see our glory days and I still see our youth. We are old but we are not that old is pretty much goes through everyone’s mind at an event like this. I overheard someone at a bar telling his date, “You’re old when you give up.” They were both in their sixties. No one at the KUA Reunion has given up. That alumni in the wheel chair and oxygen tank hasn’t given up. In fact he was probably a star athlete and if his body could still do it he probably could reenact some of his greatest moments right then and there. So as I was driving home from the Hilltop, these two choices went through my head. We either resent time or we embrace it. t It was great to have such a big turnout from our class.

Talk about making his class proud. His involvement in the advancement of KUA is amazing and his contribution helps bring to fruition what the school will be for generations.
