Submitting or Updating Your Biography
AND
Obtaining a User ID and Password
to Access Classmates'  

Biographies (Bios) of classmates are available on this web site; however, an ID and Password (PW) is required. There is a catch for us to send you that ID and PW. You must send us your written biographical information.

To access a classmate's biographical information, click the Bio Button to the right of the photograph in the Photo/Bio column of the "Classmates/Directory & Bios" page. Enter your ID and Password (PW) and you will obtain access to that classmate's bio information. To read additional bios, click the "Classmates/Directory & Bios" link at the top of the page to return to the directory listing and then select another classmate's Bio Button. You will not need to reenter your ID and PW until your next visit to the website. You may submit or update your biographical information at any time.

Why are we requiring an ID and PW? - The answer is two fold. First, it is a privacy issue - the bio pages are the only pages on this web site that list the full name of classmates. Additionally, the bio may contain information that you want only your other classmates to know!! Second, it is an encouragement issue - it is a way to get you to submit a bio. Your submitted bio might be as short as a few sentences or as long as a book; however, we want you to submit.

Every classmate will want to know more about you and your life in the last 50 years. Oh, yes, they do WANT to know, no matter how dumb it may seem to you or how wonderful it seems. You see, the person everyone knew as you in high school is not the same person now. You may be a "blooming idiot" or are you a "late bloomer" who's just now "blooming?" Whatever the case, people are naturally curious about each other. So, the Reunion Committee developed a biographical information survey to get classmates more "in touch" with each other. By submitting your biographical information survey (and photos), you are giving the Class of 1959 Reunion Committee permission to distribute your bio and photos to your classmates via a paper hard copy and by a ID/PW protected page on the class web site. AND you may at any time request changes, edits, or additions to your bio. You are not limited in its length. Heck, write a book.

Believe it or not, everyone will wonder what you look like now. Well, maybe not everyone; however, a lot of classmates will. So, to save the corny guessing games of who is who at the reunion, send a recent photo of yourself to go with your survey response. Gosh, send us a photo(s) of your whole family. Knock everybody's' socks off. We will put the photos on the Net with your bio!

With our 50th "right around the corner," lets make this the best reunion ever by learning more about each other so everyone can really visit at the reunion - Like, "I cannot believe you flew solo to Paris."

A personal ID and a Password (PW) will be sent to you once we have received your bio and it has been placed on the class web site.

After your bio is placed on this web site, you may update your bio at any time. You may add to it or update it with information and photos at any time. This allows you to place those "I Forgot's" or "New Happenings" into your bio. To do this, just use the Contact link at the top of this page and send us an email OR use the Offline or Online submit links below to send us the information. You do not have to reenter your total bio, just enter the additions, rewordings, or whatever OR just type what you want changed or added and tell us where. We will then update your bio and let you know when we finish.

You may submit your biographical information Survey (or adds and updates) at any time. You can copy/paste the form and fill it out at your leisure in your Word processor. You can take you time over several days. You can use your word processor's formatting and spell-check capabilities. You can fine tune your bio.
