Sunny skies and perfect temperatures greeted alumni and their guests on Morningside Heights for Reunion 2017, June 1–4, and All-Class Reunion, June 3. The 2,500 reunion-goers enjoyed all-class favorites like the Tri-College Reunion Luncheon on South Lawn, the Wine Tasting and the Starlight Reception, as well as class-specific lunches, receptions, dinners and panels. Attendees relived their student days at Mini-Core Classes and lectures given by distinguished faculty (including the keynote address, given by University Professor Dr. Richard Axel ’67 on “Scents and Sensibility: The Fascinating Relationship Between the Brain and Smell”) and also enjoyed campus and neighborhood tours.
