Our Year. Our Weekend. Our Moment...
It's time to come back to celebrate the place and the people that helped shape who we are today. October 11-14, Santa Clara is inviting all of us to return to campus for the Grand Reunion Weekend to come together again to remember, reconnect, and renew. Wine tasting, golf, lectures from our professors, and a class dinner party are just a few of the events being planned for our return.
Here is what our classmates are saying about coming back to Santa Clara:
"Santa Clara is part of you. It's not just the past, it's the present." - Joan Banich
"Santa Clara is where we all cut our teeth. Let's celebrate the journey of our class" - Francis Basich Whitney
"We don't care how many gray hairs you counted in the shower drain this morning, we just want to see you." - Pat Neary
Looking forward to seeing you in October!
Cheers,
Pete Dunbar and Dave Higgins

Read and Submit a Class Note
Keep Us in the Loop!
Your fellow classmates want to know what you've been up to! Share an achievement, award, new marriage, addition to your family, or just what you have been up to since graduation day. All notes will be shown online and possibly printed in Santa Clara Magazine.
Make a Gift that's Special to You in Honor of Our 30th
Class of 1982: Others at Santa Clara made a forever difference in our lives. Let's come together to make a difference for students now. Our reunion committee wants every classmate to do two things:
- Show Up – Just being there is the best part of the reunion.
- Make a gift of any size towards our Class Campaign – We want at least 50% of our class – 330 Alumni – to participate to raise $750,000.
We want to emphasize participation because we have a power in numbers: Last year donations of $500 or less to SCU totaled $1.3 million. A donation to any area of campus is counted as part of our class gift. Additionally, anyone who makes a five-year pledge will have the sum count toward our campaign and will no longer receive donation solicitation calls, emails, and letters.
Help us reach our goal of getting 330 classmates to donate by clicking the green button on the right today! A gift at any comfortable level would be a meaningful and appreciated gift to your alma mater.
Thanks for your consideration and Go Broncos!
