Dear Middle Tennessee State University Golden Raider,
On behalf of the National Alumni Association, we would like
to invite you back to campus for our Golden Raiders Reunion at Homecoming 2009,
October 23 and 24. Homecoming is a time
to visit with old friends, reminisce about your college days, and become
acquainted with today’s campus.
The Golden Raiders Society is for fifty year and earlier
graduates or attendees. This year the
class of 1959 will be inducted into this special society. Inductees receive a commemorative pin to
display their MTSU pride and Golden Raiders membership. We encourage all of our
past inductees to return to campus and share in the induction of the newest
class, the class of 1959. If you know of someone who graduated prior to 1959
and has yet to be inducted, please contact the Alumni Office at 1-800-533-6878.
Along with the induction ceremony, there is a full weekend
of activities for you and your guests, as you will find on the enclosed
schedule. We hope you will accept this invitation to join fellow Golden Raiders
for the many activities planned by the Alumni Office for you to enjoy with your
former classmates.
Having lived in Murfreesboro and been involved in campus
activities for many years, we have been privileged to experience the
University’s progress first hand. It’s so exciting that MTSU was recently
ranked as the top public institution in Tennessee by the Forbes “America’s Best
Colleges” 2009 survey.
Come back to campus and participate in another chapter of your MTSU
history. We are eager to see all the faces that make up our favorite college
memories. We are particularly excited about seeing some of you for the first
time in 50 years! As we remember the great Blue Raider football team of our
senior year that earned conference co-champion honors, let’s rally against
long-time archrival Western Kentucky at the Homecoming game.
Please take the time to send in your reservation and make
plans to join us! We look forward to visiting with you as we stroll down memory
lane. The Alumni Association looks forward to honoring the Golden Raiders
Society at Homecoming 2009!
Best regards,
Ed (Brownie) Barlow and Sarah Follis Barlow
Class of 1959
