1/12/12 Patty Headley Sorensen writes: "Great Idea...I would like to get back in touch. After graduating from IU in Business & Psychology in 1981, moved to Indpls, where I married in 1987 and was an Information Technology manager for a Catholic order hospital group for 15 years. I have since retired, own a small embroidery business, have 3 daughters. We moved to Mandeville, LA (North Shore New Orleans) in 1999, lived through Katrina, moved to The Woodlands (Houston), Texas in 2006. Lived through Hurricane Ike there. My oldest is a Biology/Chemistry major at LA Tech, my twin girls are freshman NCAA Division 1 gymnasts at Oklahoma and Southern Utah University. I travel a lot for college gymnastic meets and have a tendency to want to say IIIII...UUUUU...instead of OOOO...UUUU...at OU's college football games. Married to Craig Sorensen originally from Milford, IN .

12/25/09 Monique Opiola Craig wrote: "Glad I found this web page although I'm not sure how recently it's been visited by anyone. It seems like I keep getting lost on people's list. Hopefully not this time though. I have been on FB and that has put me in touch with several long lost friends. Thanks to whoever does all the work on this site."
4/5/09 Keith Elster writes from Phoenix AZ: "Wow! Didn't know this site existed. I found this one and Jeanette Brown's site a few weeks ago by accident while searching for HS basketball tournament results (OK, gotta give South a little credit, right? :-D ). I know that being on a UHS site is a bit of a stretch since we were the first North grads in '73, but as far as I'm concerned it should still count. Note: If you attended UHS, in ANY grade, it counts -- Dave Gray

5/19/08 Dan Honeycutt writes: "I attended UHS from 8th through 11th - and graduated from North. Stayed in Bloomington 5 years after High School attending IU. Moved to Virginia in 1978. Haven't done very well at keeping in touch with many of the folks I knew at UHS. Best regards to all.
2/06/08 Michael McAuley writes "I graduated from Bloomington South, but attended most of my high school years at University High School" Michael has a web page (and there is a bio on that page).
8/16/05 Debra Jeffers Woodward writes: "I went to University School for grades 7-8, then my parents moved and I attended Binford and BHS, returning to my childhood friends at BHS-North when it opened the fall of 1972. I always identify U-School as my favorite place. I, too, enjoyed the unorthodox methods of education. U-School was a great place, never been another place like it. My husband is a University, Class of '72 graduate."
