The 1967 Cooper Union physics majors had a reunion in Mayfield Village, Ohio, at the home of Allan Khoury. The group toured the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Cleveland Museum of Art and the Cleveland Botanical Center, cruised Lake Erie and the Cuyahoga river, and dined in Cleveland’s Little Italy. This follows previous reunions in 2012 at Cooper, and in 2018 in Princeton, NJ. The date of the next reunion is uncertain but 2027, the 60th anniversary of the group’s graduation from Cooper, is a possibility.
David Ellison, ’83 AR, joined the group for dinner one evening. David is the local representative of the Alumni Association.
Cooper graduated 11 classes of physics majors, from 1967 to 1977. The slightly more than 200 graduates included one Nobel Prize winner, Russell Hulse. That’s a percentage of about 0.5%. According to ChatGPT, 0.06% of Cal Tech physics major undergraduates have won physics Nobel Prizes.
