October 2004 marked a special time for those who graduated in a year that ended in “4” or “9”. The festivities for all reunion years began with a cocktail reception in Flavelle House. Graduates from 1954 to 1999 reminisced with classmates over drinks before heading off to individual class events at local restaurants.
The class of 1964 decided to do something especially memorable to celebrate their 40th reunion, and accepted the invitation of their classmate, Ed Roberts (now the Lieutenant Governor of Newfoundland and Labrador) to travel to St. John’s for the weekend. Despite the inclement weather, the 1964 grads had a wonderful weekend of sightseeing and nostalgia, which ended with a spectacular dinner at Government House. Many shared their memories of Caesar Wright, Bora Laskin, John Willis and the other remarkable teachers who gave so much to their students. It was clear to all that their experience at the law school had created deep bonds of friendship that remain strong forty years later.
The Faculty of Law would like to extend its enormous thanks to all Reunion Committee members for their hard work in making this year’s reunion such a resounding success.
