Ken Keate ’73

Planning to attend

I'm active in All God's Children Metropolitan Community Church, (of which I became a charter member 32 years ago) and play Euphonium in the Minnesota Freedom Band (of which I helped to found 25 years ago), and the Bavarian Musikmeisters Band.  I've been sober for 23 years now. 

My Mac Memories: Hubert Humphrey's never able to take more than three questions in an hour Q and A, because he rambled on and on and on; Drama Choros; the Mac Do Book, which was not relevant when we got it (I still have my copy); my trip to Spain with Macalester Students; the crosses on the lawn by the Dining Commons (as it was called), when Nixon invaded Cambodia; blockading Grand Avenue, and watching a bus do a U turn; canceling finals my freshman year due to the war; learning FORTRAN as I stood in line to put my stack of punch cards in the only computer students could use on campus. The good times we had at Spanish House on Summit and Snelling. Getting to the bus stop at University and Snelling to attend a FREE (Freedom of Repression from Erotic Expression) event at the University of Minn, and walking back to Macalester because I was too afraid to go.
