ALUMNI REUNION WEEKEND AT SLU MAY 30-JUNE 2

CANTON - A variety of educational, recreational and social events 
are planned for Alumni Reunion Weekend at St. Lawrence University, 
May 30 through June 2. Over 1,000 people are expected to attend.
	Seminars with University faculty, staff and alumni are 
planned throughout the weekend, in addition to campus tours, a 
talk by President Daniel F. Sullivan, trips to area attractions 
and the traditional Parade of Classes.
	A highlight of the schedule is the dedication of Creasy Way, 
the area that spans the University's athletic facilities, from Park 
Street to the outdoor tennis courts, and from Leckonby Stadium to 
the Newell Field House and new fitness center. It was made possible 
by a gift from Class of 1952 graduate William N. Creasy Jr., of 
Greenwich, Connecticut. The plaque that will mark the site states, 
"St. Lawrence friendships last a lifetime, both those with 
classmates and with members of the North Country community. Creasy 
Way honors those valued friendships, most notably with Jack 
Leonard '44, Moose Levato '42, Paul Patten '48, and Billy 
Walsh '44." The dedication will take place on Saturday, June 1, 
at 3:30 p.m.
	Also on Saturday, Alumni Citations will be awarded to:
	- Peter P. Griswold '52, of Okemos, Michigan, for 40 years 
of leadership in rehabilitation services in Michigan and throughout 
the nation.
	- Kevin J. Arquit '75, of Harrison, New York, the pre-eminent 
anti-trust attorney in the country.
	- Betsy J. Bernard '77, of Morristown, New Jersey, the chief 
executive officer of AT&T's consumer phone business.
	- John T. Major '77, of Schenectady, New York, chief of the 
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation's Bureau 
of Wildlife.
	Jeffrey G. Meilman '65, of Buffalo, New York, will receive the 
Sol Feinstone Award for Humanitarian Service. Meilman, a physician, 
is the founder of the Hope for Tomorrow Foundation, which sponsors free 
surgeries for deformed and injured children around the world.
