You are invited to take part in this once-in-a-lifetime occasion. Join us for an opportunity to learn about Brooklyn College today, reminisce about your time on campus , and reconnect with your classmates in break-out sessions. This event is free for all Class of 1972 graduates, but registration is required.
To commemorate your milestone reunion, we invite you to support the 50th Class Gift. This is a tradition dedicated to the enhancement of the day-to-day experience for current and future generations of students. All donations received will be designated to fund two grants, which could be what determines if students can continue their education or if they must drop out of school.
This is for students who encounter an unexpected short-term, nonrecurring emergency expense. For students who qualify for an Emergency Grant, the need can be eliminated.
This is for students who need to complete a few credits in order to graduate and have small outstanding balances that are preventing them from moving forward. Unmet financial need can be a significant barrier to graduation.
We ask for your commitment to the traditional 50th Class Gift by giving as generously as you can. All gifts, no matter the size, will make a difference!
Do you have photos from your time on campus? E-mail them to us for inclusion in our slideshow.
