Hi, 9Y4 friends!
The rock-solid duo of E. TERRY & E. FOX is back as your reunion Co-chairs, and we fervently hope you’re planning to be back in New Haven over Memorial Day Weekend 2024 for our 30th reunion.
Our reunion headquarters will be in lovely Branford College*, right at the heart of campus. We’re planning some unique and exclusive activities for our class to complement the amazing lectures and presentations the Yale Alumni team is hosting.
No more Zoom, no more hashtags. It’s time for pizza and dancing and waxing nostalgic about the places that don’t exist anymore (RIP, Naples!) and rejoicing about the places that look better than ever (Commons, alias the Schwarzman Center), not to mention the people who look better than ever (all of us, obviously).
Oh, and we’re going to smash the all-time 30th Reunion attendance record, just like we did for the 25th.
Be there. We will really, really miss you if you don’t come -- and we honestly mean that.
Emily Fox BR’94 & Elizabeth Terry JE’94 (aka Foxy & Eliz)

Humanities Quadrangle Tour (self-guided) Family Friendly🐾
Designed by James Gamble Rogers, Yale College Class of 1889, in the collegiate Gothic style blended with Art Deco, this landmark facility was built in 1932 as the Hall of Graduate Studies. As a Yale senior, future architecture critic Paul Goldberger ’72 described the 209,000 square-foot structure as “jazz Gothic.” After more than 80 years of providing graduate student housing, classrooms, and faculty offices, Rogers’s iconic building underwent a comprehensive renovation starting in 2016 to create a home for the humanities at Yale. When the remodeled HQ opened in fall 2021, it gathered two-thirds of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences humanities departments and graduate programs in a building imagined for intellectual exchange. Pick up a guide for a self-guided tour from your class reunion headquarters.
