50-year anniversaries have long occupied a special place in society. Generally referred to as "Golden Anniversaries," they are celebrated by institutions, businesses and individuals. They commemorate loyalty, perseverance, and often a special, lasting bond between people.

When college and university alumni reunite to celebrate 50 years as graduates, it is indeed a rare and special occasion. At Rockhurst, we honor our 50-year graduates, those celebrating their Golden Anniversary as Rockhurst graduates, by induction into the Golden Hawks Society. Each 50-year class is inducted into the society at a special ceremony for graduates and the widows of deceased graduates, and as part of their 50-year reunion celebration.

This year's Golden Hawks class is the Class of 1958.

Class members interested in helping to plan the reunion should contact Mary Landers. All class members are encouraged to send updated information to Mary, including your current e-mail address.
