Reunion Logistics
Tuesday, March 1: reunion registration begins. Look for program information and registration materials next month. Note the special low $50 registration fee offered to the 50th reunion class. It includes all the fun and all the meals!
Covid Precautions: Because Covid safety measures continue to evolve as regularly as the virus does, the college encourages alumni to check the Reunion page for the latest information. At present, the college will be asking all attendees to attest to being fully vaccinated and boosted (if eligible) prior to attending. It will also link to campus policies around COVID mitigation and ask us to adhere to those regulations as they are at the time of reunion. It has not yet been determined if people will be required to show proof of vaccination, but that is a possibility.
