One last reunions picture
I snapped this picture of my classmates (one of them described it as "the official picture") on my cell phone yesterday after the P-Rade; the fellow at the left end of the back row was my roommate known to you as "Coach." The big guy with the orange polo shirt in the middle of that row is an actual coach, Brown University head basketball coach Craig Robinson. He also happens to be Barack Obama's brother-in-law. So there's a brush with greatness for you.

Your focus is bad, but your classmate in the light shirt looking to his right appears to be Glenn Ivey, currently State's Attorney from Prince Georges County and likely future Governor of Maryland. If he runs in the next primary, I'll switch my party affiliation to Democratic just to vote against the current douchebag-in-chief, Martin O'Malley.
Is this photo for Chris?

Craig Robinson is now the head coach at Oregon State University; big promotion, more $$$, and the chance to compete in the Pacific 10 conference.

I had missed that news on Craig -- thanks for the correction. Much appreciated. Yes, ID, I emailed it to him directly from my phone.

TH - what's up with the funny jackets? Do all Princeton reunion classes dress like this? (I need to know so I can harass one of my colleagues.)
By the way, having attended a Southern college, I must admit that unusual alumni attire turns up at homecoming football games (example: bright green chinos embroidered with gold football helmets). But we do NOT have an alumni uniform.

Yes, Nancy, every class designs its own jacket at its 25th reunion. Before that it wears goofy costumes and such. Long story. Search on Princeton reunions on Flickr or Google images and you'll get the picture.

Nancy: "what's up with the funny jackets? Do all Princeton reunion classes dress like this?"
You call those jackets "funny"?
Those are tame. Sedate. You shoulda seen my class jacket...
