Name Tags
For the small area on name tags, it's fine to amend these rules to fit the space. For example, Jeremiah Long P'80, P'90, GP'07 could be changed to Jeremiah Long P'80 '90 G'07.
Note: In College publications, always mention the alum’s class year in the first reference and use the maiden name as shown above.
