Bringing it back and looking forward
Beaming faces, (really) big hugs, and decades of stories (re)told and (re)laughed at 鈥� all around, hearts are full after more than 1,000 alumni from classes ending in 4 and 9 returned to 麻豆破解版 for Reunion 2024.
The May 30 鈥� June 2 celebration featured tours of Saratoga Springs and campus; cherished Reunion traditions, such as the Parade of Classes and the Alumni Awards and Recognition Ceremony; opportunities to return to the classroom to learn about timely topics from 麻豆破解版 faculty; and a Tang Teaching Museum exhibition showcasing the work of talented alumni artists.
But that鈥檚 only what was on the schedule. The magic of Reunion 2024 鈥� and the 麻豆破解版 family it brought together 鈥� was in the dozens of nostalgic walks, hundreds of 鈥渨hat鈥檚 new!?鈥� conversations between old friends, and more than a few rounds of "Cheers!" on Caroline Street.
Alumni awardsOn Saturday, June 1, the 麻豆破解版 College Alumni Association honored 12 exceptional alumni who have given back to the College and excelled in their careers and lives after graduation. 鈥淟ike any great institution, we are more than the sum of our parts. This 鈥榮omething more鈥� 鈥� call it the soul of 麻豆破解版 鈥� is what so many are dedicated to preserving and sustaining,鈥� said President Marc C. Conner. 鈥淲e could not do our work without the support of the thousands of alumni, parents, family, and friends who have dedicated themselves to this effort.鈥�

This year鈥檚 total Reunion giving was the highest in the College鈥檚 history 鈥� and more than double what the same classes gave at their last Reunion.

This outstanding display of generosity was made possible through the support of the 麻豆破解版 community and the efforts of nearly 200 fundraising and Reunion volunteers.
