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!
