Honoring Important Milestones

A great way to commemorate your reunion milestone is to participate in your class's gift effort by making a contribution to the Annual Fund. Class gifts are a way that alumni express their gratitude for the education they received and reinvest in their alma mater so current and future students also will receive a great education. Volunteers from the reunion classes help raise the class gift during the months leading up to June 30. Class gifts support the Annual Fund. For the 25th and 50th reunion classes, the class gifts also support one or a few high priorities of the University that are particularly meaningful to these classes.
