Interim President Robert Groves hosted engaging discussions throughout the weekend, including the Reunion Reconnection featuring Justin Falvey (B’90), John Hodges (C’00), Andrew Morrison (C’15), Sky Sitney, and Marci Wiseman (SFS’85). Saturday’s University President’s Event featured Sonny Kalsi (B’90, Parent’25), and provided in-depth updates about Georgetown’s exciting new Capitol Campus
  2. Over 80 events were held over the weekend, including the All Class Family picnic—where alumni and their families got to experience the Hilltop as they once knew it, with friends, food, performers, and music. 
  3. Georgetown faculty and alumni were featured in several thought-provoking panels and lectures, showcasing the talent and expertise found on the Hilltop. 
  4. More than 15 family-friendly events were offered for alumni with children of all ages, including the Family Science Class, the All-Class Family Picnic, Art at Alumni House, the Farewell Brunch, and a special storytime with Jerry Pallotta (B’75, Parent’07, ’09) during Lunch on the Lawn.

GU Politics brought together Kristen Soltis Anderson, Rebecca Pearcey, Symone Sanders Townsend, Tony Sayegh, and Mo Elleithee (SFS’94) for a riveting discussion on the effect of changes in our politics on the future of public service in one of our highest attended panels, Hilltop Dialogue: “Politics in an Era of Disruption.”

Reunion Giving

A great and important way alumni can participate in their class reunion efforts is by making a reunion gift. Every year, it’s a race to see which undergraduate classes will be recognized for their achievements.
