Reunions Weekend 2016: Reunited, and It Feels So Good

Reunions 2016Wow, what a weekend! Reunions 2016 welcomed the largest crowd ever – more than 4,100 alumni and guests – back to campus during three postcard-perfect spring days. Alumni partied, whether to the throbbing beats of Club Diablo Azul or in mellower style at Duke Blues Lounge. They learned from spotlight speakers Gen. Martin Dempsey AM'86 and Scott Ellsworth. And they rekindled friendships that felt as fresh as the spring weather. Thanks to Duke alumni for another unforgettable Reunions Weekend.

#MyDukeMoment Contest

In 2015, we started a new Reunions Weekend tradition. We asked alumni to submit a photo of a favorite Duke memory to the #MyDukeMoment Photo Contest, and we selected four winners to recreate those memories with the help of Duke Photo. The winners included a group of alumni from the Class of 2005, who recreated a post-graduation photo in front of the Center for Multicultural Affairs in the Bryan Center as well as a group from the Class of 1985, who recreated a college dance scene.
