This page is intended as a resource for alumni of the Munich Branch of the University of Maryland to foster memories and contacts among former classmates. As I become aware of reunions, related web sites, email addresses or other information of interest, I will post it here. If you would like any personal information posted or removed, please let me know by emailing me at khprice@aol.com. I welcome any comments or suggestions and would love to make contact with any former friends or classmates. |
REUNION PLANS
I believe the most recent BIG reunion was in October of 2013 in the Baltimore/Washington DC area.
You can still see some of the details here: http://munichcampus5060.eventbrite.com
I'm not aware of any current plans for another one. In past reunions, alumni from our era of the late '50s have not been very well represented. But we're getting to the age where such reunions ought to be on our bucket list. If you become aware of any such plans or want to organze one please let me know and we can post it here.
In the meantime, feel free to use the directory below to contact each other. Let me know if you have any additions, corrections, or deletions to the directory. Email me at khprice@aol.com.
What else is going on?
Most of you probably know that the Munich Campus was transferred to Augsburg and then to Mannheim. The 50th anniversary of the opening of the Munich Campus was celebrated in May, 2003. The program was finally closed on May 31, 2005. See the "official" website below. The end of an era ..... but what great memories remain. See note on the Achiever article, below.
Web sites
Carlton "Woody" Woodell (62-63) started a great "unofficial" site. It has recently been renamed to::
The "official" web site of the Munich/Augsburg/Mannheim Campus is:

The Spring 2010 edition of The Achiever, published by the University of Maryland Alumni Association, has a great article about the Munich Campus including the history of the campus and several pictures. It used to be on the U.Md website but was removed. Howerver you can see a copy of it by clicking HERE. The article starts on page 14 of the magazine, which is page 9 in the .pdf file.
In Memorium
Dr. Jim Whalen passed away on September 6, 2001. He will be missed by all who knew him. Click HERE for a note I sent to those whose addresses I had at the time as well as a more recent update.
Bruce "Buzz" Meiser passed away on January 13, 2011 at Georgetown University Hospital where he had been undergoing treatments for pancreatic cancer. The cancer had been diagnosed several weeks earlier and he had been in quite a bit of pain before and during his treatments, so in some ways, his passing was a release. All of Bruce and Linda's children and gradchildren had been together at their "Eagles Nest" home at Christmas time, which Linda described as a great blessing.
Bob Hill passed away June 9, 2013. Click HERE for more.
Alumni Directory
The most comprehensive list of email addresses I have seen is on Woody's site which, again, is: www.munichcampus.org. The list below is taken largely from that site for those who were in Munich during the '58 - '60 time period. I have followed the convention of sorting by current name so you may have to look a little for maiden names as we knew them in Munich. I have added a few names and phone numbers that I am aware of. A strikethrough indicates a disconnected phone or an invalid email address. If anyone has more information on these or on any other classmates, please let me know and I will add them to the list. Where a state is shown, I usually have a street and city address. Contact me if you need it.
Several classmates have registered on the www.classmates.com website. There are two levels of service there: Free and Fee. The Fee is the so called "Gold" membership and costs $3.00 per month billed as $36.00 per year. Email addresses are not posted, but emails from Gold members will be forwarded to anyone listed. I am a Gold Member and could forward email for you to anyone on the list if you would like. That way, you can make an initial contact without having to join Classmates for a full year.
