From June 2 through June 5, alumnae gathered on campus to refresh and reinvigorate their Barnard connections. This year’s program featured an array of special events that included Professor Mary Gordon ’71, center stage at a literary salon, and Erica Jong ’63, who addressed the 50th reunion class dinner. Reunion-goers could choose from live storytelling, panels on women’s sports and the state of education in America, and a student dance performance, not to mention class dinners and morning yoga sessions. The Alumnae Association Awards celebrated seven distinguished alumnae, all of whom are featured in this issue. Over the course of the weekend, more than 1,300 alumnae and guests reconnected to each other and the College as they celebrated, caught up, and took to the dance floor.
