Come back to Bryant for Alumni Weekend June 2-4, 2023

Alumni Weekend will be here before we know it! This June 2-4, Bryant opens its entire campus up to our graduates. In addition to recognizing the reunion cohorts (class years ending in 3 or 8), we welcome back any classmates who want to enjoy the campus vibe — with live music around the pond, access to the residence halls, and great activities for all ages.

“Shifting reunion to the spring/ early summer timeframe gives us an opportunity to expand signature events like the Alumni Achievement Awards, and also to revisit traditions like Super Giants at the Country Comfort and wine and cheese parties on the Bryant beach” notes Robin Warde P’17, executive director of alumni and parent engagement.

Whether it’s been five years or 50 since you graduated, we know you’ll find that Bryant has changed in response to evolving trends, emerging needs, and the 21st century economic landscape. The momentum of Vision 2030 is building across campus, driven by leaders who are passionate about Bryant and have the vision to propel our University forward. Led by President Ross Gittell, Ph.D., Bryant is finding new ways to enhance our educational ecosystem, co-curricular programming and student life, premier Division I athletics and recreational facilities, and continue to champion access and economic mobility, all while remaining true to the traditional strengths we’ve been building on since 1863. Bill ’67 and Sue Conaty’s transformational lead gift of $5 million in support of athletics and scholarships is a testament to their commitment to Bryant, and they are setting the pace by envisioning all that Bryant can be. We’re excited about what the future holds for Bryant, and we’re getting back out on the road to spread the word and engage with alumni around the country and the world.

Our January Trustee Reception in Florida kick-started an exciting year of nationwide and worldwide travel, and it offered us an opportunity to recognize Corey Levine ’80 as a Champion for Philanthropy, one of Bryant’s most prestigious awards continues on page 7
