Throwback Thursday: the Psychology Department in the 1988-1989 Mary Washington College “Meet the Faculty” book!

My Alumbud Deanna Hicks posted this to Facebook, and she gave me permission to share it. 🙂 Thanks Dee!

This would have been the year before the late Dr. Chris Kilmartin joined the faculty.

I had all of these professors except Dr.’s Corcoran and MacEwen.

Throwback Thursday: more Longwood High School shenanigans (1988-1990)!

Long Island, New York. Here are a few more photos of Longwood High School and its students, courtesy of our unofficial class archivist, the indispensable Carrie Schor. These would be shots of the International Student Organization, between 1988 and 1990.

I miss skinny 1980’s ties.

Thanks again, Carrie! 🙂



Throwback Thursday: Longwood High School shenanigans (1988-1990)!

Long Island, New York. Here’s a set of incriminating photos from someone who really should be named our class archivist — Carrie Schor (formerly Carrie Harbach). I believe most of these come from our junior and senior years (1988 – 1990). But I’m not sure. That snow-colored, skinny little gnome Nolan in the red Adidas t-shirt looks considerably younger than a high school student.

That shot at the beach is of a couple of members of the International Student Organization.

More next week.

Robert Duvall, star of “The Godfather” saga (1972-1990), “Apocalypse Now” (1979), “Colors” (1988) and “Falling Down” (1993), passed away yesterday at the age of 95.
