Dear Classmate \u2013<\/h5>\n
Greetings from the St. Olaf Class of 1995 Reunion Committee!<\/h5>\n
The COVID-19 pandemic sadly denied us the chance to get together and celebrate our 25th reunion back in 2020. But this year we can celebrate both our 25th and 30th reunions over May 30 \u2013 June 1, 2025! Have you registered<\/a>?<\/h5>\n
As we reflect on those years spent together on The Hill, it\u2019s hard not to smile at the memories we shared that bonded us together. It feels like only yesterday we navigated life away from our family homes and came of age together at our alma mater, creating memories and friendships (and sometimes even pathways to marriages!) that would last a lifetime.<\/h5>\n
Who could forget the Halloween Blizzard of 1991? \u201cNordic Munch\u201d in the Caf? The Pause and Big Wu? The iconic old Ytterboe Hall? The amazing annual Christmas Festival? How about the unforgettable moments of witnessing Adam Sandler, Carrot Top, and Betty White (aka Rose from St. Olaf, MN on Golden Girls) gracing our little campus in Northfield? And of course, don\u2019t forget the many professors, music directors, staff, and coaches we came to know and love under the endearing leadership of former President Mel George.<\/h5>\n
As we continue life\u2019s journey these years later, what better way to honor how our formative college years shaped us than to reconnect with old friends and the Campus for our 25th\/30th reunion! Relax on the campus green with morning yoga and afternoon yard games. Take a guided tour of the majestic St. Olaf Natural Lands. Enjoy a toast and formal dinner with your beloved classmates. See how the campus transforms at night with adult beverages and \u201cSilent Disco.\u201d Cap things off with a haunted campus tour led by former Dean of Students Greg Kneser! Thirty years ago may feel like yesterday, but so much has transformed on campus since we last studied there (e.g. new Student and Science Centers, wind turbine \u201cBig Ole,\u201d athletic facility upgrades, new campus housing, etc.). Come back home, experience the Hill reimagined, and renew your friendships and connections to St. Olaf.<\/h5>\n
Check out the schedule of events<\/a> and plan your special 25th\/30th reunion weekend back on The Hill today! Don\u2019t wait – register now and get on the list. Let\u2019s FILL THE HILL on May 30th<\/strong>.<\/h5>\n
Um! Yah! Yah!<\/h5>\n
