How to Get Involved

Carleton regional events exist to connect alumni, parents, and friends with each other and with the College. They provide social and educational programs, a forum for renewing old acquaintances and meeting new Carleton people, and opportunities for bringing news about Carleton to those who may not have visited the campus recently.

Each year we host a number of events such as Nationwide Trivia, Coffee with Carls, Summer Send-offs, happy hours, summer picnics, and more. Have a great idea for an event? We would love to hear from you ā€” we need your help in organizing events!
