2009 Reunion Campaign Details

Every five years, each Cornell alumni class returns to campus in June to renew friendships and reconnect to Cornell. Many alumni make special Cornell Fund gifts to celebrate what their Cornell education has done for them and help their class set a new reunion campaign record. All gifts made by class members during the fiscal year from July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2009 count toward the Reunion Campaign totals.)
