Joe Meis writes: “Members of the Brown Class of 1975 crew, along with several spouses, friends, and assorted hangers-on, returned to campus over Memorial Day weekend to celebrate our 50th reunion. Charles Tansey ’74, in addition to serving as the event instigator, activity coordinator, and general all-around master of ceremonies, graciously hosted us at his home in Bristol, R.I. for a picnic on Saturday afternoon. On Friday, we got together for lunch at India Restaurant on Hope Street, attended the Campus Dance, and spent time wandering around campus reliving old memories. The high point of the weekend was, without a doubt, an alumni row on the Seekonk River Saturday morning (see photo above). Men’s crew head coach Paul Cooke ’89 provided an eight-oar shell for us to use and a coxswain to steer us while assistant coach Rufus Biggs ’19 followed along beside us in the coach’s launch to ensure that none of us fell out of the boat and drowned. Our freshman year coach Albin Moser ’67 even joined us in the boat, rowing in the five seat! Everyone agreed that the weekend was a success and that we should all make plans to get together again soon, hopefully before another 50 years elapse.”
