Miamians wearing as much red and white as possible line up for toasted rolls in the Shriver Center. Across campus 350 alumni of the Men’s Glee Club crowd into Hall Auditorium to stretch their vocal cords with “Java Jive.” They are rehearsing for a Saturday evening concert that will take place under a mammoth tent in central quad.
It’s June 2007 and alumni are back on the Oxford campus to catch up with old friends and relive their favorite college times during Reunion Weekend 2007.
Two-dimensional photos don’t do the June 14-17 festivities justice, but we try, and we ask you to try too. Try to imagine a bear hug between former freshman roommates who haven’t seen each other in 30 years. Shut your eyes and hear the alumni band playing a rousing version of the fight song as you parade with 3,000 or so other alumni from the Hub to the Sundial.

We look forward to welcoming you back again next year when Miami’s annual summer celebration, more recently known as Reunion Weekend, becomes Alumni Weekend once again. Mark your calendar for June 12-15 when all Miamians are invited to “follow the red bricks home” and join in the fun.
