German College of Footwear Design and Technology<br />
DSF Alumni Reunion<br />
in August<br />
Just over two years ago, students and members of the<br />
teaching staff of the German College of Footwear Design<br />
and Technology (Deutsche Schuhfachschule, DSF)<br />
undertook a study trip to Portugal to visit a number of<br />
footwear factories. The trip was, of course, interesting<br />
and informative. However, among the highlights<br />
of the excursion, top place went to the discussions<br />
held with DSF alumni who now live and work in Portugal.<br />
In fact, these meetings were so interesting that<br />
the wish arose to pursue exchange of information<br />
and experience with other DSF alumni, wherever they<br />
might be in the world. Thus the idea of organising an<br />
inter-year reunion for DSF graduates was born.<br />

at the Footwear College<br />
in the mid-1950s<br />
NEWS<br />
A date has now been set for this meeting: Alumni of all<br />
entry years of the German College of Footwear Design<br />
and Technology as well as friends and sponsors of the<br />
college are cordially invited to the grand reunion starting<br />
at 5 p.m. on 20 August 2011. The meeting points<br />
are located on the premises of the German College of<br />
Footwear Design and Technology at the International<br />
Shoe Competence Center (ISC Germany, Marie-Curie-<br />
Str. 20, 66953 Pirmasens) and at the Pirmasens Festival<br />
Hall from 7 p.m. onwards.<br />
The new premises of the Footwear College at ISC can<br />
be viewed during a champagne reception starting at<br />
5 p.m. A photo exhibition will tell the history of the<br />
Footwear College from its foundation in 1927 right<br />
up to the present day. The pictures illustrate everyday<br />
aspects and highlights in the life of the Footwear College<br />
and also track changes in the facilities and equipment<br />
at the school in the course of time. Of course,<br />
class photos of all the graduation years are an absolutely<br />
essential component of any such exhibition. Numerous<br />
exhibits will also relate individual stories from<br />
the long history of our College. All participants will<br />
receive a brochure showing highlights of this exhibition.<br />
Anybody who has additional photos or materials<br />
is kindly asked to make these documents available for<br />
20 August.
