Impossible to believe ... but it’s been 30 years.
Thirty years since late nights, early mornings, group projects, exams, big dreams, and even bigger laughs at the Business building. Thirty years since we walked across that stage as grads, thinking we had it all figured out (or at least pretending we did).
And now—it’s time to come back together.
Join us, the Class of 1996 Business graduates, for an evening of reconnecting, reminiscing, and reliving the stories that somehow get better with age.
Laugh about the good times, the questionable decisions, the long nights, and the friendships that have stood the test of time. There will be great food (cash bar), great company, and act just young—and foolish—enough to feel like no time has passed at all.
Whether you stayed close to home or life took you far away, this night is about celebrating where it all began—and the people who shared it.

Can you believe it? It’s time to celebrate our 40th reunion! It seems like only yesterday we were looking forward to a bash in the Green Room.
We’ve spent 40 years building our lives, our careers, and our families. Now, let’s spend a few days together, rediscovering the friendship and class spirit that started it all. Come catch up with old friends, share laughs, and reminisce. We’ll kick things off with a cocktail reception at the Business Building, followed by a relaxed and nostalgic pub night at Big Ben’s. The highlight of the weekend will be Friday’s Pig Roast—prepared on-site by Lester’s Farm—at the Elk’s Club. And to round it all out, we’ll gather on Saturday for a cozy brunch at the Gypsy Tea Room downtown.
All events are casual dress, classmates only, and prices include gratuities. We look forward to seeing you in October!
Registration for all events will close 11:59 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 1, 2026.
