The Class of 1960 celebrating its 50th reunion
Class reunions from the 25th to the 50th anniversaries are held at five-year intervals. Each reunion includes a Friday evening meal and plenty of time for reminiscing. Saturdays typically feature a morning brunch and then pre-game festivities. Seeing the Hokies play in Lane Stadium is a treat for all reunion participants. Special seating at Tech's sold-out stadium is arranged for the reunion registrants.

The exception to the typical Friday/Saturday reunion agenda is for a Thursday evening game, when the banquet follows on Friday. Rooms are set aside at The Inn at Virginia Tech for reservation by reunion registrants. A special game-day reunion is also held for several classes of young alumni. Register early at www.alumni.vt.edu to guarantee game tickets and accommodations.

Multiple homecomings are hosted throughout the football season to coincide with home games. Eight college programs are spread across the home schedule, along with other special homecomings for graduate alumni, corps of cadets alumni, and multicultural alumni. Homecomings are open to all alumni of the constituent groups, regardless of graduation year. In each case, there is a game-day gathering, a guarantee of good food, and the opportunity to reunite with friends, faculty, and staff. Lodging and game tickets are available to registrants of homecomings on a first-come, first-served basis, so it's best to register early at www.alumni.vt.edu.
