Listen to the Hits of 1974
Get in the mood for reunion by listening to this specially curated playlist of music from the Class of 1974. Whether accessed via YouTube, Spotify or Tidal, listening to the wide variety of tunes selected by your classmates while reading the 50th reunion Quips & Cranks is highly recommended for a multi-sensory immersion in memories.
Photos and Stories…Oh My!
Members of the Class of 1974 are encouraged to take a trip down memory lane through stories and photos shared by classmates.
Class Gift
The Class of 1974 has set an overall reunion class gift goal of $300,000 and a class giving participation goal of 54 percent. We hope as many classmates as possible take part in helping achieve these goals in honor of our special 50th reunion year.

Class of 1974 Quips and Cranks: 50th Anniversary Edition Quips & Cranks
As part of our celebration, the Reunion committee is creating a Class of 1974 Quips and Cranks: 50th Anniversary Edition. Classmates received an email from Meno Publishing with the relevant links and instructions for this project. All surveys must be submitted online by March 1 to be included in the Quips and Cranks project. The booklet will be published online before June and classmates will receive a hard copy when we gather in person to celebrate. If you need assistance with your survey and/or have questions, please contact the Reunion Staff at reunion@davidson.edu.
To get an idea of what we have to look forward to, take time to enjoy the online 50th Anniversary Quips and Cranks Yearbooks for the last three classes:
