== Best Reunion Events Ever: ==


1.  My best reunion event happened by accident at a Kennedy School reunion.  For reasons beyond my control, I found myself the only person standing when someone clanged a glass to get the attention of a 100 person room.  Caught like a deer in headlights, all I could muster was to welcome everyone and introduce my friend who clanged his glass ("by accident", he claimed later).  He then proceeded to make a couple of generic remarks and introduced a third individual that everyone knew would be ready to speak extemporaneously.  Jim then fulfilled this mission for a few minutes and, in a flash of brilliance, introduced a FOURTH person he wanted to hear from.  Thus this continued for about 45 minutes with about 15 participants and one of the most engaging reunion experiences ever.

MORAL:  Leave time for spontaneity. 
Another Moral:  Figure out ways for classmates to share with each other outside of structured events.
