RPI : Class of 2010

The Class of 2010 Publicity Committee is seeking a motivated, artistic and talented individual to serve as the Class of 2010 Council designer. The designer will be responsible for creating\ formating custom design templates, posters and brochures that the Council needs to make, as well as things like T-shirt designs and Logos. He\she will be a member of the Council and will be required join two committees as well as attend bi-weekly council meetings. The Class of 2010 Council would greatly appreciate it if you would consider this great opportunity to learn and expand your portfolio.

After a great many applications for Ring Committee positions came in, we have finally culled the group to an acceptable size. This selective group should more than adequately serve the Class of 2010's ring needs. Please congratulate your new Ring Committee members:

Ralph Barretto
Mary Batto
Joe Henry
Ashleé Lindo
Mengdi Lu
Brittany Phillips
Colin Popell
James Turk

The Ring Committee, designated to pick and coordinate the choosing of the Class Ring is now taking members. The Committe will be contacting companies to set up meetings with ideas and quotes, most likley giving sketches of 1 or more ring designs. The committee will then ask each company to give out a bid and formal proposal for the ring. The committee will discuss and vote on the best ring, taking into consideration, things like good artwork and price, and other services.

The Class council has been planning an "Assasin" like game for the past month. After struggling to get permission for the game, we finally got it passed by Mark Smith (Dean of Students), under the name of "Sticker Tag" and specific set of rules and regulations.

It gives us great pleasure to introduce Sara Brown as the new Class of 2010 class Senator.

The elections were held this past Sunday (9/9). The two candidates, Zach Petit and Sara Brown, were very strong in complimenting areas, and had very different ideas. After presentations, questions and lengthy discussions the council voted by secret ballot for the best possible Senator. The results were extremely close, but the council reached a verdict.

Zack and Sarah are both members of the Class council now. We consider them a great new addition and hope that they will contribute a lot.

There is now a vacancy for the POSITION OF 2010 STUDENT SENATOR. It is up to the Class of 2010 Council to elect a new one. If any one is interested in this, please look at the position description on the RNE page.

Please let the council know of your interest using the contact form at the top of the page, and we will enter you into the list of candidates for the position.

I regret to inform the Class the senator Lin Yang of the Class of 2010 will not be returning next year. After a fantastic first year as Senator, she was re-elected by the Class for the upcoming year. She has worked very hard on Senate and Class Council Projects. I can attest to her hard work on the Student Philanthropy Initiative and the Art Attack Program. She even had very good ideas for Class events that will very likely take place in the future. She will be missed by her Class.

Student Philanthropy Initiative

The Student Philanthropy Initiative is a program constructed by the Class of 2010 to cultivate a culture of giving back at RPI. The physical goal of this initiative is to raise money for the 2010 class gift. However, it is the cultural impact of the initiative—of demonstrating the altruistic and personal benefits of giving back to RPI—that we hope to establish.  This pamphlet outlines our idea.

Giving Back, Step-by-Step

Hey I just found out that there was an issue with the captcha on the most of the pages for anonymous users. It wouldn't allow people to register and it wouldn't allow people to leave comments or messages to let us know.

I implemented a more simple math version that can be easily broken by spammers.

If you see an odd comment on this website full of links and other things, please do not click on any of the links, and inform us using the site contact form in the top right of the page.

Thanks for your patience.
