Golden Graduates

 

One of the great traditions we have each year here at Cheverus is to host those who graduated from the school fifty years ago.  It is our opportunity to bring our Golden Graduates together to honor them, to learn of and remember our past, and to reacquaint them with the Cheverus of today.  Bringing the men of each class together after fifty years, seeing their expressions, hearing their laughter, and listening to their stories as they reflect upon Cheverus’ impact on their lives is an honor and a pleasure.

 

“It was a wonderful three days.

Being on the stage with the

Graduating class was awesome.

I hope I looked that great when it was 1955.  It was great to see some of my classmates.  Wish more had come.”

Charlie Piacentini, Portland, Maine

Cheverus hosts a “Stag” Night reception on the Friday before graduation, followed Saturday by a Reunion Mass and dinner.  Monday, during the elegant Cheverus graduation, graduates are invited on stage, introduced and receive a Golden Diploma.  Tuesday morning brings them back to Cheverus for a brunch, Memorial Mass and tour of the campus.

 

“1955 Golden Graduates Reunion--what an awesome experience!...it was an experience even greater than I anticipated.  It was great to see these young Stags…. Equally as important was joining my classmates of ’55, most of whom I had not seen 

for 50 years.  The comradery of a small class cannot be expressed in words; but in handshakes, embraces and treasured memories.  Those feelings that trace back to the hallways, classrooms and campus of C.H.S.   Thank you, thank you, thank you.”   Raymond F. Lynch, Enfield, Connecticut

 

It is with a deep sense of gratitude that I remember those who truly led me out of myself and into the world so very well prepared in all the important ways."  Frank Booker '56.

 

It is one of our favorite events here at Cheverus and receives rave reviews from all who attend!  Each year’s attendees and the event are highlighted in the fall edition of Cheverus Today magazine.
