Celebrate Golden Reunion this spring

By Lauren Ivey

Celebrate the Howard University Golden Reunion, May 7–10! This proud tradition celebrates the Classes of 1976, 1971, 1966 and 1961, allowing alumni to reminisce and rekindle valuable relationships. The Class of 1976 will march at Commencement on Saturday, May 9, which will return to the Upper Quadrangle (The Yard). Your registration will include a cap and gown for Commencement, a 50th Reunion medallion, and a keepsake class journal.

“The Golden Reunion is a time to reconnect with old friends, reminisce, and create new memories,” said El Hadji Djibril Diagne, associate director of annual giving, reunions and constituents group. “In celebration of this remarkable milestone, we invite you to join us for your 50th Class Reunion Weekend Celebration.”

Reserve your spot via the Howard University Alumni Relations “Reunions” portal, and don’t forget to book your hotel before the early-registration discount ends April 9.
