I also had 52 in my graduating class. Weird.

Really? Cool! You're from Washington, aren't you? I am too. If I weren't certain that none of my class moved to Utah, I'd start wondering. ;)

I only lived in WA off and on from '09 to '11. I'm from Utah.

52 is huge? How many were in your HS?
Also, I'd like to run for having the largest high school graduating class. I believe that mine was 650. Can anyone beat that?

I'm aware that 52 is not actually huge, but my graduating class was 10. :D (Our class was small even for our HS, though.)

I'd have to look up the exact number, but I'm pretty sure mine was between 700-750.

Wait, Katya, I thought you were from this area?

So...according to my senior class t-shirt there were about 800 of us in my senior class, but I'm pretty sure some of those didn't graduate, which is why I remember a lower number.

Can we change Katya's title to "enigma in residence?"

I think enigmatocity is already inherent in being a Patron Saint.

(At the risk of de-enigmatizing myself, I'll clarify that I went to a small private school.)

Where's my title, admins? Surely being in the top 10 qualifies.

What would you like your title to be? Laudatory Literary Critic?

Titles don't come automatically with anything (unless you're a current Board Writer, but even that has exceptions). They happen when they happen, that is, when either a) you request one specifically or b) we think of a good title for you.

So I think that means we should be in charge of our 5 year reunion. Which should be happening sometime soon. But she hasn't gotten back to me. And I'm not about to arrange that by myself. So.... yeah. We didn't stay close at all. And unless I can get the ball rolling, there won't be much of an excuse to get together again.

Also, side note, the reunion really would be the best way to get the group back together since the group I ran with comprised about 75% of our graduating class. I think 52 of us walked that year?
5 year reunion? Is that a thing?
I just got done with my 5 year college reunion, so it's definitely a thing.

How about Board Writer Emerita?

We're moving away from having titles that directly reference the Board unless you are currently working there; to keep those titles causes confusion and prevents us from giving out titles that come more directly from participating on this board.
