I actually remember thinking, during an idle moment between programs of the 125 year celebrations, about where I might be and what I would be doing at the time of the 150 year celebrations, an apparently distant twenty five years in the future.

A teenager then, the thought that I would be around forty years old for Xaviers 150 was a sobering one. Gad, I might even have children of my own studying here by then… mindboggling!

I would try and contribute towards the 150 year celebrations, I promised myself then, just as my father was as part of the small but very efficient ‘’steering committee” of the 125 year celebrations.

And thanks to ALSOC I am today able to redeem my pledge in some small way by creating this redesigned web site and programming the Google Maps mashup which we call the ALSOC World Map.

I hope ALSOC members will use this web site to keep themselves informed about the activities of the association and to interact with each other. One of the best ways to start is by posting a message sharing memories of the 125 year celebrations.
