Class of 1981

Welcome to the Class of 1981 40th Reunion web page! Here you will find all of the resources you need to make the most of this exciting milestone. 

Every five years, your class converges on Homewood to meet with old friends, enjoy good food, revel in social, cultural and academic events, and — for better or for worse — relive college memories.

Wasn’t college great? Come back to Homewood and do it all over again and celebrate your 40th Reunion Redo!
