Famous Alums (and baseless speculation)

We at the 'Prince' generally refrain from engaging in baseless speculation, but when it comes to discussing which famous alums might be spending the weekend on campus, well, we just can't help ourselves.

Working off the assumption that even the world's most powerful and busiest individuals would never miss a Reunion ending in a zero or five, here's a quick cheatsheet of celebrities (and quasi-celebrities) likely to be on campus this weekend. So study up, figure out what they look like and get ready to play "Where's Waldo: Princeton Edition" during the P-rade...

Dennis Norman '01 - NFL player (Jacksonville Jaguars)
Kyle Brandt '01 - "Real World" and "Days of Our Lives" star
Grant Wahl '96 - Senior writer, Sports Illustrated
David Remnick '81 - Editor-in-chief, New Yorker
Elliot Spitzer '81 - Attorney General of New York
Elena Kagan '81 - Dean of Harvard Law School
Terdema Ussery '81 - President & C.E.O., Dallas Mavericks
Frank Ordiway '81 - Associate Dean of the College
Josh Bolten '76 - White House Chief of Staff
Mike McCurry '76 - Former White House Press Secretary
Eric Schmidt '76 - C.E.O., Google
Jim Kelly '76 - Managing editor, Time Inc.
Mitch Daniels '71 - Governor of Indiana
A. Scott Berg '71 - Pulitizer Prize-winning biographer

Gary Becker '51 - Nobel Prize-winning economist
James Madison 1771 - Dead, but presumably celebrating his 235th Reunion from the grave

Spot one these guys (and gals) on campus? Did we forget someone famous? Let us know (editor@dailyprincetonian.com) and we'll include the information in a future post.
