The fall of 2022 will be a very special time for our founding order, the Franciscan Sisters of St . Joseph (FSSJ) and the Hilbert College community . This committee will assist in the development, planning and execution of all recognition celebrations, events and activities as the College community prepares to celebrate the 125th Anniversary of the founding of the FSSJ and the 65th Anniversary of Hilbert College . These planning activities will culminate in a period of celebration and events that will take place in September 2022 .
In October 2020, the Hilbert College Board of Trustees approved moving forward to design and build a new artificial turf Track & Field Complex that would open in late summer/early Fall 2023 . The College has retained a planning and design firm, and the Trustees approved the design and proposed cost in May 2021 . As Hilbert leadership moves forward with this important project, this committee will assist in the key discussions, planning and assistance needed to engage the community and help support a successful fundraising effort . Committee members will serve as ambassadors of the College in support of this important project that will impact the growth of our athletic programs and future student enrollment .
True Blue Alumni Weekend2022
Hilbert College looks forward to True Blue Alumni Weekend, June 10-12, 2022. It will be our first on campus alumni reunion weekend in several years . This event will celebrate those anniversary years ending in 0, 1 or 2 as well as all Hilbert alumni . Committee members will provide leadership and support in the planning of all the events that will take place during the weekend, including Athletic Hall of Fame inductions, San Damiano awards and other Alumni Award celebrations .
