By registering, each individual agrees that Bowdoin College will be taking photos and video at Reunion events, and may publish them in any format or media without additional permission from the individuals featured.

Dear Fellow Polar Bears,

We hope you’re planning to make the trip to campus May 29-

June 1 to reconnect with classmates and friends at Reunion 2014.

Much has changed here at Bowdoin, but even more remains just

as you remember it.

Here is a tentative listing of events and activities happening

during the weekend. Later this spring, a final schedule, including

times and locations for all events and meals, will be available

on the Reunion website. A printed version of the final schedule

will also be available at the Reunion Welcome Center. Check

out bowdoinreunion.com for information about event listings,

registration, on-campus housing, registered classmates, travel

discounts, and other details to help plan your visit!

Please join us for the fun and warmth of this wonderful weekend!
