The Great Class of 1978 largely assembled in the University Chapel. Nancy Newman '78 was one of a handful of class members given the awesome responsibility of playing the Bee Gee's "Stayin' Alive" (our theme being Princeton's Top 40th) via a mini boom box while we all performed a carefully choreographed and laboriously practiced "Stayin' Alive, '78" dance before the reviewing stand. As you'll see from the attached email, she chose to substitute the Chapel's center aisle for the reviewing stand, put the song on full blast, and danced herself down to the alter to tremendous applause.
