’77 35th Reunion Party7:00–11:00 p.m.

Sure, it’s been 35 years, but you still know how to party, right? The historic MacArthur Park restaurant will be the backdrop for an evening of mixing and mingling over hosted cocktails, delicious food, and irresistible desserts, followed by dancing to music that’s guaranteed to transport you back to the ’70s.

Friday, OctOber 5

’77 Panel: “Giving Back” 1:00–2:45 p.m.

As the Class of ’77 nears retirement (whatever that may mean), many are thinking about giving back. This year’s panel will be divided into smaller, classmate-led discussion groups focusing on ways you can give back over the next 35 years. Come join the discussion!

Saturday, OctOber 6

’77 Tailgate and Central Mini-Reunions Noon–5:00 p.m.

Before the football game, gather with your classmates, dormmates, teammates and overseas studies-mates for Mini-Reunions and an all-you-can-eat BBQ buffet with a hosted bar. As you chat in the shade, the strains of an old, familiar song grow louder and louder. Suddenly, LSJUMB bursts into view. The Band is on the run—and you’re going too!

This is just a taste of what you and your classmates will be up to.
