GOLDEN EAGLES CELEBRATION


Golden Eagles reunions are a cherished tradition, helping alumni celebrate and reconnect for their 50-year class reunion. We are thrilled to honor this incredible milestone for the classes of 1975 and 1976 on July 31 and August 1, 2025.
During your time on campus, both classes will be recognized and presented with their Golden Eagles certificates and pins. This year also marks an exciting new chapter—Golden Eagles reunions will now be a biennial event. The next gathering in 2027 will celebrate the classes of 1977 and 1978.
Remember, once a Golden Eagle, always a Golden Eagle! You are welcome to attend every reunion and reconnect with your fellow alumni. We can’t wait to celebrate together this July as we honor the remarkable classes of 1975 and 1976.
