Reunion 2019
The 102nd Alumni Weekend Celebration
May 2-5, 2019
Greetings Talladegans,
I hope that spring has sprung wherever you are and that it reminds you of how beautiful our campus is this time of year. It is unfortunate that current students don’t get to enjoy the dogwoods that used to line Battle Street. Still ‘Dega’s campus is beautiful in the spring.
As mentioned in our most recent communications the Executive Committee of TCNAA solicited suggestions for persons to consider for vice president of our organization. We received several calls and emails giving us the names of highly qualified persons. In our last conference call the committee elected Ms. Racquel Lipscomb Peck to fill the vacancy.
