  • Greeks (Delta Tau Delta, Phi Epsilon Pi, Theta Xi, Lambda Chi Alpha, Phi Iota Alpha, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Tau Kappa Epsilon, Pi Beta Phi, RSE, and FIJI to date.)
  • Classes ending in 4 or 9, the 50 Year Club, and the Class of 1952

  • Special Interest Groups (1947 NROTC, young alumni, graduate alumni, biomedical engineering, ROTC, and Phalanx)

The highlight of the weekend will be the Grand Opening of the new East Campus Athletic Village, the most extensive athletic construction project in the Institute's history. This isn't the same old thing - it's a brand new twist on a favorite tradition. Please plan to join us! Read more.
