Reunion Weekend is relatively new to Mercyhurst University, the first being celebrated in 2010. Those that attended the event thoroughly enjoyed the weekend, thus allowing us to make the weekend a yearly celebration. Reunion Weekend seeks to honor Landmark Reunions (celebrating their 60th, 55th, 50th, 40th, 25th, 10th, and 5th Reunions) and honor distinguished alumni that represent the University in our community, nationally and internally. It is our intention that graduates coming back to campus relive their years on the Hill and celebrate with classmates; making for one of most memorable weekends alumni can have.

All alumni are invited. We are celebrating the Landmark Reunions of:

• Class of 1963 (60th)
• Class of 1968 (55th)
• Class of 1973 (50th)
• Class of 1983 (40th)
• Class of 1998 (25th)
• Class of 2013 (10th)
• Class of 2018 (5th) 
• Torchbearer Classes (Graduates before 1973 are welcomed back each year)

While you are more than welcome to stay wherever you please, we highly recommend the convenient comforts of staying here on campus. You can stay on campus and be a short walk away from all of the exciting Reunion Weekend festivities. In addition, we provide a hospitality suite stocked with snacks, pop, beer and wine throughout the weekend. There is no shuttle service provided by the university for those staying off campus.
