Below is a list of articles we've found over the years in various publications, featuring members of our Class of 1972. The list is by no means comprehensive, and we'd love your help in making it more so! If you do come across anything, either from a current publication or one living at the bottom of a pile somewhere, please forward it (or a pdf of it) to the webmaster, Megan Hawgood. Very recent "newsworthy classmate" sightings in the news will be listed in our "Classmates in the News" section (sidebar), but our goal is to move less current articles to this page for archiving into the future.
