College Row Classes is a program specifically designed for alumni in the years following their milestone 50th reunion to sustain the sense of closeness to Wesleyan and classmates that the 50th reunion experience helps create. We welcome alumni from the Class of 1975 and earlier to enjoy programming ranging from institutional update webinars to special on-campus days during Homecoming + Family Weekend and Reunion + Commencements Weekend to informal virtual class happy hours. To learn more visit the College Row Classes webpage.
Wesleyan invitations are sent via email throughout the year, and registration is done online. Alumni not receiving emails from Wesleyan, who need assistance, or just want to learn about staying connected, should contact Kate Micari in the Office of Advancement at 860.685.2079 or kmicari@wesleyan.edu.

Memorial ChapelNow entering its 33rd year, the Dwight L. Greene Symposium honors Dwight L. Greene '70 as a memorial and tribute to his life and work as a professor of law, mentor and friend. Each year, presenters are selected from among Wesleyan's alumni, faculty, and friends who have distinguished themselves in their professions, to share on topics of importance for Black alumni, alumni of color, and the Wesleyan community at large.
Historically sponsored by the Black Alumni Council and Alumni of Color Council, the symposium serves as a long-standing campus tradition and a time to reflect on where we were, where we are, and most importantly…where we are headed. -
