Children
You are welcome to bring your children to Alumni Weekend. However,
certain events such as the Friday kickoff and the Saturday dinner-dance
are not be appropriate for children under 12. Children attending these
activities require an adult ticket, as there is no children’s pricing for these
events. The University does not offer a babysitting/child care service,
but you may bring your own sitter to Alumni Weekend.

Reunion-year class photos will be taken after the dinner on Saturday, July
28, except for the 50th anniversary class photos, which will be taken before
the dinner. Fifty-year graduates will be mailed a complimentary 5x7 print
