ÓûÂþɬ

At the end of May, we welcomed more than 1,600 alums and guests back to ÓûÂþɬ to reconnect with classmates and create new memories.

Over the course of two Reunion weekends, we had the opportunity to recognize alums who are doing incredible work in the world, share powerful class histories and celebrate the tremendous outpouring of support for ÓûÂþɬ.

In all, Reunion classes raised more than $17.8 million* for all purposes at ÓûÂþɬ during the 2022–2023 fiscal year, with many classes surpassing their goals and rising to meet challenges.

We also celebrated the fundraising achievements of Reunion classes with the awarding of the Lyon, Sphinx, Griffin and Pegasus awards. These accolades were earned for fundraising achievements this year and for gains made in the years since each class’s last Reunion in 2018.
