Your Milestone Reunion 

Dear Â鶹¹ú²úAV and Kirkland Classes of 1975,

We are excited to welcome the Â鶹¹ú²úAV and Kirkland Classes of 1975 back to the Hill from June 5-8, 2025, for your 50th reunion celebration. We hope you will enjoy seeing lifelong friends, make new connections, celebrate your life journeys and achievements, and reflect on memories of your student days! 

This is a one-of-a-kind milestone event and is uniquely developed for each class. We encourage you to stay informed and help spread the word to friends. The Classes of 1973 and 1974 have been setting records with their 50th Reunion attendance. Let's keep this great momentum – you will not regret it.

We can’t wait to welcome you back! For more information on how to get involved in your 50th reunion committee, please feel free to contact me directly.

What to Expect

Below is a general overview of what to expect for your Milestone Reunion!

Please plan to arrive on the Hill on Thurs., June 5, 2025 which is a special welcome day for the 50th reunion class. An optional pre-gathering organized by the class may take place in the central NY region on Wed., June 4. More to follow. On your Thursday arrival, there will be a dedicated 50th reunion welcome and information desk. On-campus events begin in the afternoon. Thursday evening is a 50th class reception and dinner with classmates and guests. The program includes the presentation of the 50th reunion medallions and the presentation of the 50th Class gift to the College President.

Throughout the weekend there will be time to explore the campus, including the Ruth and Elmer Wellin Museum of Art, the Kevin and Karen Kennedy Center for Theater and Studio Arts, the Root Glen, Taylor Science Center, the college bookstore, as well as the many new and old buildings and facilities around campus. There are a number of 50th reunion specific scheduled events, including Â鶹¹ú²úAV and Kirkland 50th alumni colleges, a golf cart campus tour followed by lunch, the all-alumni parade, the presentation of the half-century annalist letters for Â鶹¹ú²úAV and Kirkland, and social gatherings. Saturday night is a very special 50th class dinner with music, toasts and your class photo. The reunion concludes on Sunday morning with the Service of Remembrance and a farewell brunch.

The Reunion Planning Committee will be organizing virtual alumni colleges in fall, winter/spring, and various alumni colleges during reunion weekend. The alumni colleges are individual and panel discussions from members of your class across many areas of interest.

The annual meeting of the Alumni Association is held on Sat., June 7 in the Chapel. The program includes the introduction of the 50th class, choir performances, and the presentation of the Â鶹¹ú²úAV and Kirkland half-century annalist letters.
