Real Talk: Stages of Life
Lowell Lecture Hall
Interactive discussion (you will be made to talk to people!). How are we adjusting to life 15 years out from college: marriage, divorce, parenthood, career changes, caregiving, health challenges, loss? This facilitated, semi-structured session is focused on creating a space to connect, swap stories, and reflect together. Worried about this being awkward? Us too. Bring your open, authentic self.

Building and Maintaining Community
Paine Music Hall
Research shows that strong social ties are a key determinant of health. And yet, reported feelings of loneliness continue to increase worldwide. In this moderated panel discussion, we will hear from classmates who have developed their communities in person, virtually, institutionally, or through shared interests or affinities. Together, we'll explore the challenges, practices, and rewards of creating and nurturing these -- and our own -- connections.
3:00 – 5:00 p.m.
Mini Reunions & SIG Meet Ups
Just like the student organizations you may have engaged with in college, Harvard Alumni Association (HAA) Shared Interest Groups (SIGs) connect you with fellow alumni from all over the globe who share your interests, experiences, cultures, professions, or avocations.
Mini-Reunions are fantastic opportunities to connect with fellow alumni while you are on campus. Past mini-reunion events have included athletic team mixers, academic department meetings, student organization gatherings, and more.
More information, including a list of events, is forthcoming.
