Attention Greek Alumni! Pledge to be at the SesquiFest!
In conjunction with the Sesquicentennial, each fraternity and sorority will be celebrating its own reunions to commemorate this milestone occasion at the SesquiFest. It is the single largest social event of the weekend. The SesquiFest can be likened to a "Taste of Rochester Festival." The event will be held on Saturday, October 14, 2000, from 12 noon to 4 p.m. It is also the only event that is open to the whole University community. A performance by the Gap Mangione Big Band will be one of the highlights at the festival, along with area vendors selling their gastronomical specialties such as Nick Tahou's, Sal's Birds, Pontillo's
Pizza, Country Sweet Ribs and Wings, Zwiegle's White Hots, and Genny Beer.
In addition to the food and music, each fraternity and sorority will partake in their own "All Class" picture. It is our objective to get ALL U of R graduates who were a member of a fraternity or sorority back on campus. How great would it be to see those friends again that helped make our college days some of the best days of our lives!
Team Up, Varsity Alumni!
Since the late 1880's, athletics have played an important part in the lives of thousands of undergraduates and in the life of the University of Rochester. In order to show its appreciation of the hard work and dedication that the athletes exuded over their college careers, the University is honoring ALL athletes at the dedication ceremony of the newly renovated Goergen Athletic Center. The dedication will take place on Friday, October 13, at 10:30 a.m. The alumni will also be special guests at the sports symposium featuring:
- Frank DeFord, Senior writer and commentator, Sports Illustrated
- John Rawlings, Senior Editor, The Sporting News
- Donna de Verona, President of the Women's World Cup
- Curt Gowdy, long-time sports announcer
We would like to see every former athlete from every sport that was played at the University come back to celebrate the University's 150th birthday. There will be an "Olympics opening ceremony" procession of ALL current and former athletes before the start of the symposium. Don't miss out on meeting up with your old teammates and reminiscing about the "Glory Days."
The Slater Society Luncheon (classes of '30 to '49)
The traditional celebration for post-50th alumni. Bring your singing voices!
