There will be opportunities to tour the new and renovated buildings on campus, including the new McCaffery-Wagman Tennis & Wellness Center (combining the Williamson Sports Center complex into the new design) and the Billie Tisch ’48 Center for Integrated Sciences (combining Old Dana into the new structure). The “Pioneers in Science” Nursing display has been reinstated along the gallery wall of Old Dana and Nursing majors will gather there for the All-Class Nursing reception on Saturday afternoon. Both spaces are incredible additions to the campus and benefit the entire campus community.
Remember, the Reunion 2024 webpages are updated regularly and have lots of good information to help you plan your trip back to campus and Saratoga Springs for Reunion 2024 (May 30 – June 2). Please tell us if you have questions about the registration process or the Reunion 2024 weekend schedule. We can’t wait to see you and celebrate our shared history and connection with Skidmore!
Cheers to us!
