Alumni Return to Campus for Reunion Next Month

The Rockefeller University community is gearing up to welcome graduates of the Ph.D. program to campus next month for the Alumni Centennial Symposium and Reunion, May 3 through 6. More than 300 people are expected to return for this reunion, which will be the first major gathering of Rockefeller alumni since 1984.

The reunion program includes two days of scientific symposia featuring presentations by more than 50 Rockefeller alumni and students; a student poster session; and social activities, with many opportunities for discussion among alumni, faculty and current Ph.D. students.

Among preparations for the four-day event will be the transformation of Welch Hall’s second floor into an Alumni Lounge. "Do You Remember? Images from the Rockefeller University Archives," a retrospective of selected photographs and documents focusing on the history of the university since the inception of the graduate program, will be on display in the Alumni Lounge throughout the reunion weekend.

Current graduate students are encouraged to attend the scientific symposia and reunion festivities. The full reunion schedule is available on the university's Web site: http://www.rockefeller.edu.reunion/.
