Dear Friends of Baltimore City College:(President Arnold Fruman and Immediate Past President Carla Henry Hopkins)

As a proud member of the graduating class of BCC 1964, it is my privilege to serve as the Alumni Association President for the 2009-2010 terms.

It never ceases to amaze me how extensive and far reaching our Alumni base spans. Our graduates are truly global in nature, and many boast impressive credentials.

Our Hall of Fame is a testament to the mettle of how the "City College Way" continues to produce distinguished graduates who achieve the highest recognition in their respective fields.

Our Alumni Association life memberships are constantly growing, thanks to the wonderful support of our interested and concerned Alumni.

You can become a life member of the Baltimore City College Alumni Association for the modest sum of $50.00. Have it in your mind and heart to guarantee that there will be a "City Forever."

Our Alumni Association is always hard to work to ensure that our Alma Mater continues to flourish as a model of excellence and longevity.

Arnold Fruman '64
President
