Collins - The Epilogue
"The Collins Living/Learning Center. Some of us just live,"
Joseph Paul Edward Kiefer, circa 1983.
After I left Collins in 1986, many of the most memorable times of my life were reuniting with the friends I made there. Whether it was for a New Year's, Halloween or 4th of July Party or a wedding, getting back together with the old gang always feels like home. This page compiles some of the photos of my Collins friends from our post-Collins years. (If you like this page, you might also like my original Collins page or my Collins - The Weddings page.)
In addition, the official Collins page is: http://www.indiana.edu/~llc/. And I highly recommend Mike Rosenzweig's fine Collins page.
