Alumni Events

This Fall and Winter brought several opportunities for our alumni to get together. From reuniting at Homecoming and our inaugural Alumni of Color Reception to reconnecting at our many College Dinners and Thanksgiving Happy Hour, they enjoyed catching up as fellow Falcons and Huskies.


Alumni of Color Reception

On October 13, the Alumni Office hosted the inaugural Alumni of Color Reception. The goal of hosting this event every year is to create a space to celebrate this particular alumni identity and acknowledge unique experiences. All alumni were invited to attend — regardless of how they identify. 

A special thank you to our host, Tommy McCoy ’08, who allowed us to use the beautiful space at his apartment building in Arlington, and to our amazing host committee.


Homecoming

Alumni gathered at the Alumni Fan Zone during Homecoming this year to visit with current and former faculty and staff and show their Husky pride!

Just before kickoff of the Homecoming football game, Varsity Fall Alumni Athletes were recognized on center field. It was great to celebrate alumni from the classes of 1967 to 2022!
