SINCE ITS FIRST CIRCULATION, this idea has received quite a bit of feedback. Most of it has been positive. But we'd love to hear more and we welcome your involvement and your creative suggestions. So if you have comments or advice about the 8595 tent event or the larger concept, please contact us.

Here are some of the things people are saying:

What a great idea!

  

This definitely sounds like a great idea. One of the reasons I haven't gone to reunions in the past is that I was friends with lots of people in different years, but most of the events seemed segregated by graduation year. This would be a great inducement to return.

  

Keep me posted—I think this is a great idea!!

  

What a terrific idea! I've always thought what a shame it is that we only have an event every 5 or 10 years!

  

Thanks so much for doing this ... it is a fabulous idea! Thanks to the benefactors for their support and efforts!

  

Sounds like a blast!

  

Sounds like a good time and a great approach to involving the classes—[both] reunion and non-reunion [years].

  

This sounds great. I'd be glad to help. We go to Homecoming almost every year and it's hard to find people unless you run right into them by chance.

  

I like the idea very much, and could probably help in the future as a benefactor as well.

  

Love the idea behind this.

  

This will be a great addition to Homecoming.

  

This is an ingenious, fantastic, much-needed idea!!

  

It’s a great idea to capture some of us less recent grads, and it seems as if it will create a gathering space for folks as well.

  

I like the 8595 concept a lot. It's a great idea.

  

Sounds like a great idea and a fun way to mingle with everyone who was at W & M while we were.

  

This is a great idea.

  

Great idea!

  

It's such a great idea. Most of our life-long friends span several years ...

  

Great! This will actually get me to start attending homecomings other than the big ones.

  

Sounds like a great concept and look forward to participating.

  

This is great!

  

I like the idea of an 8595 club! Please keep me in the loop ... and I'll be happy to help if I can.

  

Great concept ... I would be willing to help out in any way.

  

I think anything that gets alumni involved or keeps alumni connected to W & M and each other is a good idea.
