We're back, live and in person for Reunion 2022!

Registration for Reunion is now closed. Please contact [email protected] with any questions.

If your class year ends in a 2 or a 7, it's your reunion! And ... all classes that missed their in-person reunion over the past two years are also invited back to celebrate. That means it’s you if your class year ends in a 0, 1, 5, or 6.

It's going to be the biggest and best ever! It feels good to be planning some of the traditional weekend events that we have all been missing so terribly: the Bard College Awards, Annandale Roadhouse, Commencement under the big top, barbecue, dancing and fireworks at Blithewood.

Reunion Packet

Advance registration will be required for all in-person participants. COVID vaccinations, including one booster, are required for all eligible attendees.

Your reunion class gift will be doubled!

Reunion classes support the Alumni/ae Reunion Scholarship, which awards financial aid—Bard’s greatest need—to undergraduates. Supporting Bard on the occasion of your reunion is a wonderful way to recognize the impact your education has had on your life, and to make possible the same opportunities for the next generation of Bardians.
Thank you!

Thanks to these fellow alumni/ae, all gifts made in honor of your reunion will be matched dollar for dollar up to $80,000!

Looking Back

WXBC radio show taping, late 1940s. WXBC was conceived in 1946 by Elie Shneour ’47 and implemented by many hands, including those of John Gillin ’47, who wrote his Senior Project about the technical design and construction of this college radio station. The “X” in its call letters stood for “experimental,” and the 1951 yearbook described the station as the “Voice of the Bard Campus.” In this photograph, the students behind the glass are, from left, Miles Hollister ’50, Corinne Sherman ’49, Scott Peyton ’52, Dick Sherman ’49, Carol Andrews ’48, and an unknown man. At the controls is Joan Abner ’50. Photo by Hans Knopf.
