Make your plans now so you don’t miss the reunion fun, because there will be plenty of it! But most important, don’t miss the friendships – those that have been going strong for fifty-five years and those that we rekindle when we’re together again.
It is so hard to believe that we are just a few months away from our 55th Reunion. Mark your calendars now for the weekend of April 19-20, 2024. (If you register on the day registration opens, Feb. 1, 2024, there is no fee for registration that day.) We had such a great time reconnecting with good friends at the 50th and those friendships become more cherished as time passes. We are all enriched by our time at Agnes Scott, all she taught us, and especially the wonderful people we met along the journey. Please plan to join us for good food, fun, and “sistership”.
Our class party will be in the Alumnae House and Garden. Your reunion committee got a taste of some of the food to be offered that evening, and it was delicious. We also had the option of touring the venue for our party. The Alumnae House has been renovated and is beautiful. Join us on April 19 and 20 as we revisit the good memories, funny stories, and heartfelt times of growth and strength gained through shared experiences.
At our planning meeting for the 2024 reunion, President Zak shared new recognition (national ratings) for Agnes Scott: US News and World Report rated us #1 for Most Innovative 6 years in a row, #2 for Social Mobility, #3 for First Year Experience, #4 in Learning Communities, and #6 in Alumnae Networks (Princeton Review). She also talked about the strong financial aid and scholarships at Agnes Scott. One hundred percent of students are recipients of either aid or scholarships.
Some highlights of information you will be receiving from us prior to the reunion are: requests of updates on your contact information and help with locating classmates for whom we have no information or outdated information, letter from Reunion Chair, giving opportunities and challenges, Facebook info (Class of 1969 Agnes Scott College), class website (ascclassof1969.com), ASC Alumnae Weekend Website (alumnaeweekend.agnesscott.org) goes live with reunion details on October 25.
