Class of 1974’s 50-Year Founders Reunion Celebration

An important milestone occurred in June 2024 for the Class of 1974: It had been five decades since they, as graduating students, had donned their caps and gowns and participated in Ivy Cutting. Last June, we invited those alums to return to campus as our honored guests.

 

Class of 1974 members returned to campus as our honored guests for their 50th class reunion, June 7–8, 2024.

It was a day full of celebration, great food, reconnections, and fanfare. You can see the full schedule below.

Ceremonies began on Friday morning with Ivy Cutting, followed by a full day of activities, including the 50-year certificate presentation, catered lunch and dinner, and a special program with music and sharing. 

If you are a Class of 1975 alum and want to help plan for your 50-year class reunion in June 2025, please contact the Alumni and Parent Relations Office at alumni@spu.edu or 206-281-2586.
