Dear Class of 1985,

It’s incredible to think that 40 years have passed since we walked the newscampus as undergrads. While time has created distance between then and now, we know that some things never change, like the values and everlasting bond all alumni share. After all, Once a Stag, ALWAYS a Stag.

5 years ago, our Reunion year was impacted by unpredictable events and with that in mind, we are doubly excited to reunite with our classmates at our upcoming Reunion, June 6-8, 2025. We hope you’ll join us for an unforgettable weekend of reminiscing, reconnecting, and making new memories to carry us the next 5 years…together!

Speaking of reminiscing, just a short walk down memory lane had us thinking about; The Naut, Dogwood dances, Aristotle’s birthday in the quad.

We've always cherished the friendships and memories that made our newsexperience even more special. As we come together for our Reunion, we know that these memories will serve as the foundations to create new memories and traditions – for us and for those who come after us. Our goal, to truly honor our Reunion year, is to come back to campus and give back - by making a class gift together.

Our goal is to raise $1,600,000 for newsthis year with $225,600 being earmarked for the newsFund – which provides flexible support to the areas and people on campus that need it most. Your contribution, of any size and to any area, will have a lasting impact on current students and their own newsexperience, which meant so much to us.

We hope to see you at Reunion Weekend! In the meantime:

Warm Wishes & Go Stags!

- Your 40th Reunion Committee
