Reunion Specifics
Kirse writes: For all those inquiring minds, here are our campus space assignments for our reunion in May! See below for some early details.
Reunion housing
For those who are staying in the dorms, we have been assigned Comstock/Wilder, and will be eating breakfast in Cushing/Emerson.
Last year's cost for three nights in the dorm was $135, which includes breakfast. (We assume this year will be roughly the same.) Our class headquarters will be in the Comstock Living Room.
Reunion dining
Friday's cocktail hour/dinner will be held at Davis Center, outside on the lawn if weather cooperates, and will feature a family-friendly BBQ menu ($35 per person).
Saturday's cocktail hour/dinner will be at the new Campus Center, a lovely buffet meal with something for everyone ($40.50 per person). And yes, don't get us started on how stupidly expensive that is--the college that we all love can be a bit inflexible when it comes to its catering
price structure.
(Naomi says: If you feel irked by the limited dining options presented to us at every reunion and/or the steep cost, drop a note to Samantha Pleasant at the AASC SPLEASAN@email.smith.edu and let her know! The Class of 1999 and I fought hard for more affordable and family-friendly options--like a pizza party--at the training, but we were completely shot down by the powers-that-be at the AASC who cling to the notion that all alumnae want a formal, expensive, three or four course sit-down dinner or buffet as their class meal. Maybe if they hear from more people, they will change their tune?)
Class meeting (with elections)
Our Saturday afternoon class meeting will be held at class headquarters (Comstock).
Get registered
Reunion registration materials should be arriving in mailboxes by the end of February/beginning of March. Be sure to try to beat the early bird deadline at the end of March to save a little money.
Class fees
In addition to whatever housing and meals that you choose, there will be a $40 class registration fee. Any questions about logistics or any other reunion-related matters--feel free to e-mail us at
