West Virginia University Alumni Magazine has been on-line since March 1998, when our Winter 1998 issue was translated into HTML and we linked it to the Internet. The contents of each on-line issue are almost identical to the corresponding printed issue, except that not every campus news item or other smaller article appears on-line. The first issue in which Class Notes appeared on-line is Spring 2001. Since the very first on-line issue, our goal has been to be your point of entry for visiting West Virginia University, the Mountain State, and the marvelous world beyond.
