What a weekend! From the Alumni-Faculty Forums to the themed class dinners, rich panel discussions, the APGA tent, affinity group gatherings, the colorful P-rade and everything in between, Reunions 2025 was an epic celebration with more than 26,000 alumni, friends and family returning to the Best Old Place of All. Thank you for coming back, Tigers, and for the new (orange-and-black) memories. See you on campus for Homecoming, Alumni Day, and mark your calendars for Reunions 2026, May 21-24!
No matter the weather, Princeton Tigers always shine bright in orange and black during Reunions. About 25,000 alumni, family, guests, faculty, staff and members of the Class of 2025 gathered over the four days of this year’s celebration, May 22-25.
In a packed Richardson Auditorium, President Eisgruber and Justin Purnell ’00, class president, chatted about how alumni can support Princeton and higher education during these challenging times, new construction on campus, the growing undergraduate population, supporting graduate students, and, of course, the Class of 2000’s stylish new blazer.
Celebrating her 45th reunion this year, Barbara never lost her ‘burning desire to engage in art.’
Join a community of alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends who are committed to supporting academic freedom, preserving federal research funding, and opposing tax increases on University endowments.
Princeton has partnered with the YWCA Princeton to offer childcare during Reunions beginning on Friday, May 23, 2025 to Saturday, May 24, 2025.
For alumni hoping to find a home for Princeton memorabilia and apparel that could be treasured by other alumni and guests, bring your items (only as big as you can carry) to Reunions and drop them off at the “Take It or Leave It” tent on the East Pyne South Lawn anytime after 9 a.m. Thursday, May 23. And then go on your own search for more great finds! Items not claimed by a new owner by 9 p.m. Saturday, May 25, will disappear!
Follow on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @PrincetonAlumni. Remember to tag us in your posts!
Finally have my voice back from our alumni art exhibit and reunions weekend. Thanks to everyone who came out to support me & these wonderful artists I got to show alongside: martharusso22 marksheinkman jonlevywarren! And princetonarts, you’re dreamy hosts. Thanks for letting us play!! rah, rah, Tigers ‘til next time…

One week ago, we saw so many of you stand up for Princeton and higher education. There’s still time to join us: https://bit.ly/3ZoKRgb
While Princeton seniors began marching at baseball games in 1876, the P-rade officially began in 1897, as alumni and students formed a mile-long procession following the prior year’s sesquicentennial celebration. The beloved #PrincetonReunions tradition has since grown to include all alumni classes in a cross-campus promenade.
Special thanks to everyone who joined us for the annual Alumni in the Arts Party during #PrincetonReunions last week. See you again next year! Tap link in bio to see more photo highlights.

The event was sponsored by #LewisCenterfortheArts, MusicPrincetonu, ArtAndArchaeologyPrinceton, Princetonu_ArtMuseum, and co-hosted by PtonArtsAlumni and #Princeton in Hollywood.

Thanks drumtech95 for calling me in and to the entire Class of ‘95 for making me an honorary classmate! #princeton #princetonuniversity #princetonreunions #jessiesgirl #80s
For me, one of the highlights of Princeton University reunions was a brunch at the 2 Dickinson Street vegetarian co-op (2D) where I lived for a year. People of all ages enjoyed great homemade food and fellowship, sharing memories created there over the decades. Thanks to laconiko for donating much-appreciated extra virgin olive oil for the feast!

#tbt to the one and only Princeton Reunions. Hard to believe this was already 2 weeks ago. Even wilder (at least for me) is this was the 1st time I had been back to campus in 10 yrs . Life truly comes at you fast. Didn't nearly get to see everyone I later found out had been around but overjoyed to have seen and caught up a little with the ones I did see. It really had been too long.. which is all the more reason not to let it be so long of a hiatus next time and that I gotta do better at keeping in touch. Still, am reminded there's something special about the connections forged at Old Nassau that seemingly transcend time and place so when you get to reconvene like this, amazing things happen. #princetonreunions #Reunions2025 #beentoolong #makingupforlosttime #doIstillrememberhowtousethis
“What’s a girl gonna do?” PRINCETON REUNIONS 2025 RECAP. Month of May was one of the most exhausting times of my life. From losing my passport (with my Q2 visa) days before my China trip, making it into China (240 hr transit), hopping from cities to cities, 16 hr jet lagged flight to NYC and straight to Princeton for Reunions, 30K steps a day, and staying up ‘til dawn in below 50°F weather, partying harder than I did in college. The last two weeks, all I’ve been doing is trying to recover from the damage. Although exhausting, I lived stories for the books.

Took a trip back to Old Nassau and my first Princeton Reunion is in the books! I’m a traditions girly— give me school colors, parades, beer
jackets, fireworks, singing, pomp and circumstance with friends, I love it allll!
One year later I can definitely say the investment of time in grad school was worth it— this is where I finished writing americannegra and did what felt impossible at times. I love that the university welcomes alumni back every year to celebrate. Thank you princetonspia princeton for the memories (and seeing my favorite alumna/First Lady
on the wall of fame at Yankee Doodle!

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by Pero Primero Café during Princeton Reunions!
We loved sharing caffeine, carbohydrates, and conversation with our incredible PiLA board members, alumni, incoming fellows, and extended community. Your energy and enthusiasm made the morning a success — and reminded us why this community is so special.
Already counting down to next year!

Friday, 23 May 2025: The true joy of Reunions is walking through campus and bumping into someone you know. When they are wearing the same outfit (25th Reunion Blazer, 30th Reunion cap) is an unexpected bonus!

For this year’s #PrincetonReunions, our institute welcomed General David Petraeus (U.S. Army, Ret.) back to Princeton for a dynamic conversation on the evolving future of Ukraine, moderated by Dr. Anne-Marie Slaughter. Drawing on his leadership of U.S. and coalition forces in Iraq and Afghanistan and his tenure as Director of the CIA, Petraeus explored the strategic consequences of the Ukraine conflict from the battlefield to the global order. He offered candid insights on the role of semiautonomous weapons systems, particularly drone technology, in reshaping modern warfare, and reflected on how Ukraine’s defense innovations are forcing a redefinition of deterrence and transatlantic security.
Amazing weekend celebrating reunions at princeton princetonalumni with pines.melissa, isaac_funnyboy and annabel_p28. Lots of catching up with old friends, imbibing a cocktail or two or three and taking in the wonderful absurdity and joy that is princetonreunions. So blessed to be able to make it back to Old Nassau for #35!! #princetonreunions #oldnassau
Princeton Reunions weekend is wild. Basically, it's open bars all over the campus.
Oh, and landmark years get group outfits? (I didn't go there, I was a plus one)
Point is... I was having a costume dilemma and got a bunch of great suggestions in stories (thank you ).
But it was freezing for this SoCal girl, so I tapped out and changed. (Hi Melissa, sorry I ran out of the restroom... I was .)
My 3rd point is... it was very FUN and festive Highly recommend.

Grateful to see so many Princeton alumni and friends join us yesterday for mimosas. It was a pleasure sharing my collaboration with Shruti Sharma for the 2025 Venice Biennale, within the context of Being Present—my current installation with Shirley Kern. Many thanks to the Arts Council of Princeton for welcoming Princeton alumni and supporting this special installation.

Not your average stroll down memory lane. The P-rade is 50% nostalgia, 50% tiger print, and 100% chaos in the best way.
Watch your favorite alums trade their caps for costumes and take over campus like it’s still the good old days.
