Cass Tech Hall of Fame

Nominated Members

This page is dedicated to distinguished Cass Tech Alumni who have been recommended to me for inclusion in the Cass Tech Hall of Fame. I have received several e-mails about fascinating alumni all over the country. After doing my research, I have decided to add the following graduates to The Hall. If anyone has information about an interesting alumnus (including yourself) that you would like to nominate for the CTHOF, please e-mail me at ctfame80@yahoo.com. A photo or URL (website address) where I can find a photo of the nominee is appreciated, but not required.
