There was a "Call for Nominations" in the Jan. 30th issue of "News & Views" and now the Varsity Club is following up with individual sports' alums. The criteria for Hall of Fame induction is listed below. We appreciate any and all assistance to make sure the committee does not overlook any worthy candidates for induction. *Please send us any nominees you may have by March 14th* so they can be reviewed at the next Hall of Fame committee meeting. The committee is currently reviewing candidates for 2009 induction. The 2008 class -- listed below -- will be inducted at the Harvard Club of Boston on Comm. Ave. on* Friday, May 9, 2008*. *For a complete list of men's and women's swimmers already inducted in the Varsity Club Hall of Fame go to:* http://www.varsityclub.harvard.edu/Hall%20of%20Fame/hofswimming.html * *One way the HOF Committee is trying to stay on top of all Hall of Fame candidates is by creating a running list of candidates for each sport, regardless of whether the athlete has been out for 15 years and is eligible for induction yet or not. Even if you don't have any nominees for 2009 at this time, we would appreciate any nominations you have so we can start compiling the statistical data for those candidates. Thank you in advance for your help. Please send nominations to mcneeley(a)fas.harvard.edu or to the mailing address below or call 617-495-3535.
