New Anti-Spam Legislation
Effective July 1st there is a new anti-spam law within Canada. We have been contacting some of you in order to keep you on our email list.  If you received such an email, it's important that you respond. If you do not opt-in you will no longer receive email communication from Ridley College including invitations to upcoming events, newsletters and general information. We thank those who have "opted-in" to keeping in touch - remember 'Once a Tiger, Always a Tiger! If you have not, please click here to "opt-in." 

Development Office News
We are pleased to announce that the new Director of Development, 
Susan Hazell, has arrived at Ridley College. Susan will be a recognizable name to many as she worked in various roles at Ridley from 1981-1988. Susan looks forward to reconnecting and meeting the Ridley community in the coming months.

It is with a heavy heart that we announce two loyal Ridley employees in the Development office will be leaving at the end of July.

Diana Taylor, Executive Assistant is retiring after 30 years of dedicated service to Ridley. Since 1990 she has organized, coordinated and managed the administrative side of a very busy office. We thank Diana for her expertise and professionalism over her many years at Ridley.

Bryan Rose '96 will be pursuing an opportunity at the Development Office at Mohawk College in Hamilton. Bryan has worn many hats at Ridley, from student to coach to fundraiser. As an Old Ridleian, 'Rosie' has assured us he will return to as many Ridley events as possible. We thank Bryan for his dedication, enthusiasm, and many contributions towards making Ridley a better place.

HomeComing 2014
HomeComing 2014 will be here before you know it! Be sure to make plans to return to campus on the weekend of September 19th-21st. It is a special reunion for classes ending in 4s and 9s, but it is also extra special for Ridley as it's the 125th anniversary of our beloved school!
