Junior College Reunion

 
 
Displays of yearbooks dating back to the early 1920s, centerpieces in the JC/MWSU colors, yummy breading-stuffed chicken and assorted desserts, piano and accordian music provided by a current Missouri Western University senior, a spontaneously improvised  vocal performance by 94 year old Dr. Joe Friedman, class of 1939, who had a Broadway singing/acting career in the 1960s, and a video of JC graduates (me included) recalling their experiences at Junior College highlighted this year's reunion luncheon in Spratt Hall on the university campus. 
 
To conclude the luncheon, we were asked to join in singing the Missouri Western alma mater. We all sang along even though none of the JC grads regard this song as ours. The Junior College alma mater either has been lost or never existed.
