1973 Yearbook Submission Form

Congratulations on your upcoming 50th Reunion!

This 50th Reunion celebration will have a milestone yearbook as well as an extra day of activities on campus. Past reunion classes have found the yearbook essential for reviving memories and becoming reacquainted. The goal is to include everyone we can. The College has set up this system for uploading and submitting contributions to the yearbook.

What to do
First, check/update your contact information. Then, using MSWord or Pages, draft an autobiography on your computer (see details below), proofread it, and copy and paste it into the “Submit Your Autobiography” box below. Send at least one photo (more recent than your “New Faces” photo!) to go with your bio.

The site allows you to upload up to five photos for your bio (note the guidance for filenames and other details). If you need the staff to crop a photo or would like to add a caption for a photo, please add that into the "Notes about Photos" box below the photo submission area (e.g. DeGraff_Lyn_AZtrip).

If you are sending extra photos (historic or from a recent get-together with other classmates), artwork, or an essay to be uploaded for general use throughout the book, please add a note in the comments section below the "Submit Other Creative Work" below.

A friendly word of wisdom
Be sure that you have written, rounded up, and uploaded all the items you want to contribute before you hit the "submit" button at the bottom. Like most forms of this kind, once you hit “submit,” you cannot make changes.

If you forgot something important, please send an email with the additions or corrections to the designer at Ldegraff@middlebury.edu. Please be sure to indicate that you are making a change and where/what it is, (but let’s all try to get it right the first time).

Help, I am a Luddite!
If you have gotten this far in the process, congratulations, you are almost there. If this whole electronic process flummoxes you, feel free to snail mail your autobiography and any photos you have to share to Lyn DeGraff at 700 Exchange Street, Middlebury, VT 05753.

Need help or have questions?
Our 50th Reunion liaison is Lyn DeGraff, and she can be contacted at 802-443-5777 or Ldegraff@middlebury.edu.

Good luck! We can’t wait to see the pages start to come in!

Submit Your Autobiography *

Your autobiographies are the core of the yearbook, and they are the first things people read.  We can’t wait to read about your life over the last half-century, however, you choose to present it. Please write your autobiography, spellcheck, proofread, and make any changes, then do a word count (500–550 words generally fits). When completed, copy and paste it into this online form—remember once submitted you will not be able to go back to this form. This is a one-time submission process. In the next section, you can add your photo(s). Each classmate has one full page, meaning you have approximately 500 words with one to two photos. If you prefer to have more photos, simply cut back on the number of words you write.

Photos

You will attach your photos here, but please use the “notes about photos” space to include any photo captions or to let us know any editing requirements (like cropping). Photo captions are particularly helpful if it’s not obvious from the story who or what the subjects of the photos are. We ask that you label all photos (last name.first name.title example: DeGraff_Lyn_AZtrip). The optimum resolution for a digital photo is 300 dpi at 100 percent of the size needed. If you are downloading photos from Facebook, please be sure to grab the version with the highest possible setting. Photos will be grayscale in the book, but no worries about sending your color versions, our designer can do that very easily in her program.
