 Beloit College Archives -- Archival Papers -- Beginnings of the Alumni Association
Beloit College as a chartered institution was a mere ten years old, and but five years had passed since she graduated her first class, when the Alumni Association was formally organized on July 9, 1856.
The Society of the Alumni of Williams College has been rightly styled the "Granddaddy of them all." Williams College was roughly twenty years old when her alumni body was founded; the group was brought into being to help preserve the college, and to retain it in Williamstown.
Fourteen alumni, and a former member of the college class of 1856, Emerson W. Peet (brother of S. Peet of the first class, and son of the Rev. Stephen Peet, chief among the founders of Beloit College), were present at the gathering of the alumni on July 8, 1857.

Although Williams is committed to diversity and multiculturism (along with motherhood, apple pie and the color purple), it's central commitmentt is to education and the intellectual life of the mind.

 EphBlog: More Charity
Helen Ouellette, administration vice president and treasurer of William College, announced its contribution to the campaign, saying communities are built through caring, with the hospital being a central part of that care.

After all, Senator Kerry is anti-gay marriage, a paid-in member of the ruling plutocracy, in favor of the continued occupation of Iraq, a long-time proponent of economic exploitation of poor countries (i.e., a "free trader") and unwilling to acknowledge the continued global disasters resulting from US hegemony.
The fact that some crazy alumni think that the College needs more "conservative" professors is just another sign of their disconnection from both life at Williams and, even, reality itself.
He claims in the late 1980s the average Williams student knew "50 to 150 members of her class" while now the typical senior knows "125 to 225 (perhaps more) members of her class." This is such a silly, baseless assertion that I don't even know where to begin.
