Purpose

This web site is for the Class of 1968 of Williams College. Its purposes are to serve as a record of our collective past, to add to our common experience by adding new information, in particular photos, and to allow exchange between classmates. Even though our 50th Reunion grows further away in the rear view mirror, this site will continue to serve as a gathering place for our tribe.

We owe much of the new (2020) Williams 68 appearance to:

  • Kate Krolicki ’95 – web designer & developer. Kate, with her remarkable combination of technical and artistic talents, has been the the driving force that enabled us to create the site you now see.
  • Kate Abbott ’00 – writer & journalist. Kate writes and runs BTW Berkshires – a digital guide for Western Massachusetts. You can go there to read stories about the Berkshires, especially the arts, and see what’s going on locally in the events calendar. Kate Abbott has graciously allowed us to extend and adapt her work.

We hope you will enjoy our new website.

P.S.: We’ve become big fans of and subscribers to the BTW Berkshires site. Both the writing and images are a pure delight. We hope that you visit the site often, especially if you are planning a return trip to Williamstown and environs.
