JOIN US! NOV. 1-2, 2024
Thank you for joining us for Homecoming 2024!
From the Class of 1974’s Thursday evening reunion kickoff to Saturday night’s unforgettable Extravaganza, we were thrilled to welcome back over 1600 alumni, faculty, staff, students, and guests.
It was a weekend filled with memories, connection, and celebration – all thanks to you!
A few highlights:
• Reunion Celebrations: Special events for 10 reunion classes, young alumni, and our Fifty Year Club
• Micro-Blocks: 17 engaging sessions taught by 22 faculty and staff
• Ceremony Honoring Donors: On Saturday morning, we celebrated CC donors whose lifetime giving has reached $1 million or more with the unveiling of new names on the Earle Flagpole for the William Jackson Palmer Founders Society. We also honored members of the 1874 and President’s Circle annual giving societies for their continued generosity. Learn more.
• Community Picnic: Attended by more than 525 guests
• Campus Update: Our Interim President shared exciting plans for CC’s new Science Initiative
• Alumni Association Awards: Honored eight outstanding alumni
• CC’s 150th Extravaganza: Robson Arena was transformed for a once-in-a-lifetime celebration befitting our 150th year!
Such wonderful memories! Check back for photos and videos from the weekend in the coming weeks which will be shared on our website and via social media.
