Scholarship
Hall
September 22, 2004
Dear Alumnae,
We're pleased to announce that the 2004-2005 school year marks the 50th
anniversary of the opening of Douthart and Grace Pearson scholarship
halls. For fifty years, the two halls have served as much more than
just a place to live - they have become homes for over 1,000 students
at the University of Kansas. In celebration of our history, the current
residents of Douthart and Grace Pearson would like to invite you to
Lawrence for a day of events commemorating what Douthart and Grace
Pearson halls have meant to us all.
Schedule
Brunch: 9am - noon
Football game: 12:30pm
Main Reception: 6pm
Dinner: 6:30 pm
***The hall will be open all day until 6pm for you to tour and to look at scrapbooks.
We'd like to encourage you to attend the football game against Colorado. You may purchase tickets from the Athletic Dept. by calling (785) 864-3141 or 800-34-HAWKS. Seats are $20 at the end of the field by the end-zone, and $30 along the sideline.
In an effort to help alumni stay in contact with each other, we would like to put a directory together, which would include current contact information and brief updates on what each alumna has been doing since her days in Douthart. We'd also like to revive the 'memory book' project from the 45th anniversary and collect some of Douthart's greatest (and funniest) moments in writing. Information will still be collected at the reunion, so the final books will not be ready until afterward. We'd still like to encourage you to send in your stories and information as soon as possible so that we can print some preliminary copies for the reunion, where you'll be able to pre-order copies of the finished product. The final books should be mailed to you by mid-December.
As always, please feel free to contact us at any time if you have any questions. Also, please visit the alumni website at www.ku.edu/~douthart/alumni.htm. There you'll find resources and information that will help you plan your trip to the reunion! We hope to see you in November!
Sincerely and Respectfully Yours,
Britt Bradley
