Interested in an Affinity Gathering?
Due to staffing and budget restraints, the Office of Alumni and Family Engagement is committed to assisting with coordinating approximately two to three affinity group reunions per fiscal year. Typically, those attending the affinity reunion will pay for the cost of food, IT, and other extraneous costs through registration fees.
If you are a member of an affinity group wishing to propose a reunion, please first review the Affinity Gathering Guidelines. Once reviewed, please submit your request via email to Sarah Taylor at sataylor@davidson.edu preferably 12-18 months prior to the potential reunion date.
