vicki & jack plata

My friend Sandi Gans, from our honors English class invited me to a study room on the third floor of Mather Mansion. She said there were others guys studying in the room but they were nice.

I had a work study job, but made time to go see her there. Glad I did because one if those other nice guys was my husband Jack. He bought me my first beer at the Shire in the basement of Mather.

We got married a few years after graduation and celebrated our 47 anniversary last November.

We stayed connected with CSU. I worked there for 36 years. I am the current president of the retirees association. We our proud season ticket holders in section 106. Go Vikings!
