Whether you reside close to campus or, on the West Coast, we provide opportunities for regional and campus programs for you to enjoy every year!

is your opportunity, every five years, to celebrate the anniversary of your graduation with friends and classmates.  Held in late May or early June every year, the four-day reunion celebration is your opportunity to revisit campus, old downtown haunts, and reconnect with classmates.  It’s also a great way to volunteer for your alma mater, support the mission of the College, and it’s always a great excuse to visit Saratoga Springs!
