April 23 & 24, 2021

The School has made the decision to host all Spring 2021 Reunions as virtual events.  That includes the 2020 Reunions that were postponed last spring and will be celebrated in spring 2021. Needless to say, this was a tough choice, but we believe it’s the best way to observe these important milestones and protect the health of our alumni and their families.

Reunions are a cherished tradition and we are committed to bringing you a meaningful and memorable event. We are excited to share with you the Schedule of Events for this year's Reunion:
