We want to reach you! You will hear from us via the following routes:
Class Letter – sent annually by Class Officers to keep the Class informed of upcoming activities. View the most recent letters here.
Distribution via email to all classmates with active email addresses on file with the Alumnae Association; For classmates without an email address, a hard copy will be mailed via USPS. The letter will also be posted to Class social media channels
Class EBlasts: Shorter electronic updates providing information quickly on time-sensitive Class activities. EBlasts will come from MHC.class.of.1976. Distribution will be to classmates with an email address on file with the Alumnae Association, and posted to Class social media channels as well.
