2005 Alumni Reunion Welcome Weekend

The Behrend Alumni Society hosted several hundred alumni and their families September 29 - October 2 at the Behrend College. Alumni came from as far away as Alaska, California, Florida and Canada to reunions of Lion Ambassadors, RAs, and classes. Communications alumni celebrated their 25th anniversary, while Pioneers from the first ten years at Behrend toured historic buildings and swapped stories. Alumni were also inducted into the Athletic Hall of Fame.

This was a memorable weekend for all of the alumni and their families who came out to get together, see each other, and see what was new at Behrend. The state fair theme brought the down-home feeling to the weekend and rounded up alumni, current students, and their families for some great country fun!  A perfect fall weekend to come back to school, enjoy the beautiful campus, and catch up with old (and new) friends!

We invite you to take a look at some of our favorite moments from the weekend. (Click on the image to enlarge the picture.)
