Colgate '76 50th Class Reunion
WELCOME CLASSMATES
Registration is open!
Registration just opened for our upcoming 50th Reunion taking place on the Colgate campus from Thursday, May 28, through Sunday, May 31, 2026. Over 150 classmates have told us that they hope to attend our milestone Reunion! We encourage everyone on our Hope-to-Go list as well as all other classmates to register now. The sooner your register, the bigger and better our Reunion will be!
Profile deadline extended ONE LAST TIME to Nov. 15
We are thrilled that over 195 classmates have submitted profiles for our special 50th Reunion Class Book. While we work to design these profiles, we are extending the deadline one last time to November 15, 2025. If you submitted a profile, please review this list of submitted profiles to make sure we have received it.
Need a little inspiration to write your profile? In addition to the Yearbook Committee members’ profiles, here are profiles of class members Bob Adams, Chip Capraro, Lee Cuthbert, Patricia Hayling Price, and Cheryl Mitchell Wade to motivate you to share your story and memories too. Visit the Yearbook page for instructions on how to submit yours!
In Memoriam deadline extended to Nov. 15
We are also extending the time to submit remembrances of deceased classmates to November 15. We have received heartfelt reflections of many classmates, but there are still classmates that have no reflections. Visit the Yearbook page to submit your reflections.
Please check this website on the 13th of each month for any new information from the various committees who are working hard to ensure we all enjoy a highly successful and entertaining Reunion Weekend!
Your 50th Reunion Co-Chairs,

Help Us Find Our Missing Classmates

Thank You
