Anniversaries are worth celebrating!
Congratulations to those celebrating milestone anniversaries from their UM graduation in 2025 (grad years ending in 5 or 0)! We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
Reunions are a wonderful opportunity to reconnect and reminisce with your former classmates and leave your legacy with a gift to your alma mater. We are here to help you honour traditions, make new ones, and most importantly, celebrate you!
Reunions
Reconnect. Reminisce. Celebrate your UM memories—and create new ones!

Organize your class or group reunion
Thinking about bringing your classmates, teammates, club members, or friends from your time at UM back together? Whether you want to celebrate during Homecoming, at another time or location, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
If you graduated in a year ending in 5 or 0, 2025 is an especially meaningful time to celebrate your milestone anniversary with a reunion.
How will UM help?
We can help make planning simple and fun by providing:
- Promotion and outreach support (including class lists, survey and invitation templates, mailing support)
- Event planning support (advice, venue and parking info, UM alumni discounts, catering and more)
- Materials and supplies (souvenirs, campus maps, event signage)
- Coordination with faculties, colleges and UM leadership
- Coordination of campus tours and special experiences
The perfect time to reunite? Homecoming, of course!
Homecoming is UM's biggest alumni and friends celebration each September. By planning your reunion during Homecoming, your group can enjoy:
- Distinguished Alumni Awards Celebration of Excellence Gala
- Homecoming Concert at the Desautels Concert Hall
- Bisons Block Party and Football Game
- Faculty-specific activities
If Homecoming doesn't work for your group, we can support reunions at other times of year and different locations, too!
Not sure where to start? Follow these 5 easy steps:
✅ Form a small planning committee
Gather a few enthusiastic classmates to help share the work (and the fun).
✅ Survey classmates
Find out who's interested and what activities they'd enjoy.
✅ Choose a date and location
Homecoming is popular, but another time or location may work better for some groups.
✅ Plan your event(s)
From a simple meet-up to a full weekend of activities, we'll help you plan the right fit for your group.
✅ Spread the word and encourage RSVPs early
Whether online, by email or by mail, getting early replies makes planning easier.
Want to make your reunion even more meaningful?
Many reunion groups choose to mark their milestone reunions — like 10, 25, 40 or 50 years — by giving back to the place that brought them together. Whether it's creating a scholarship, supporting a special project, or contributing to an existing fund, your gift can help future students thrive at UM.
There's no pressure — just possibilities. And we're here to help every step of the way!
