Daniel Gensler ’72, one of the students gathered below on the steps of University Hall in this April 1969 photograph, invites classmates and others in the picture to identify themselves, record their memories of the day, and consider getting together to reminisce and perhaps appear in a new photograph during this June’s reunion. E-mails sent to classnotes@harvard.edu with the subject line “Strike Photo,” or mail with the same label sent to Harvard Magazine, 7 Ware Street, Cambridge 02138, will be forwarded to Gensler for further planning and action.
