NEWS FLASH!!
On Friday evening, 16 October, two long-serving and loyal classmates,
the late Steve Laden and Sue DeRosay Henninger (and husband Joe '56),
were among a select group of alumni presented with
Frank H.T. Rhodes Exemplary Alumni Service Awards.
On hand to accept the award for Steve Laden was his wife Lee,
accompanied by their son Scott and two grand daughters.
Steve's award had been presented to him a few months ago, before his untimely passing,
accompanied by personal letters from
Cornell President David Skorton and President Emeritus Frank Rhodes.
Congratulations to Sue and Steve (and of course to Joe too!)

The Rhodes Award is bestowed in recognition of extraordinary service to Cornell University, in both length and quality of contribution by the individual, through activities within the broad spectrum of Cornell's various alumni organizations, associations, and related groups. Such service may be reflected in the leadership roles that the individual has assumed of Cornell's alumni organizations and activities, or through the unique contributions made by the individual as a part of his/her alumni service on behalf of Cornell.
The Class of '57 broke all records for the number of classmates who journeyed to Ithaca
to applaud and support our Rhodes Award winners. Here's a photo of those
