Reunions

The Alumni Office hosts and supports many reunions during the year. In addition to the golden anniversary celebration for the 50 year class, we host a spring luncheon for alumni who graduated 55, 60, and 65 years ago as well as a special event for all alumni who have been out of the College 68 or more years.

Other reunion classes who wish to celebrate occasions work with the alumni staff to coordinate mailings and events either around homecoming or at a convenient time of year which is agreeable to the reunion committee. We also assist departments who wish to plan reunions for alumni who have graduated in a certain field or took part in an activity or club. Please contact the Athletics Department at 456-8007 if you are interested in their events and reunions.

Please visit our calendar for more reunion dates.
