We’re only a few weeks away from our first Reunión y Despedida, happening on Saturday, August 14 at the home of our friends Scott Thomas and Liz Raposo in Los Angeles. We’ve been pretty excited to read the RSVPs of undergraduates and incoming students who are gearing up for their first semester on the Hilltop and old friends who are going to travel to Los Angeles for this special event.
If you are an alumnus/a and thinking of coming, make sure you RSVP by making a small donation to cover the costs of the event and offset the cost for undergrads and parents who attend. We suggest a $25 donation, but any donation in any amount is welcome and gets you in. If you are an alumnus/a who cannot attend, I encourage you to make your presence felt by making a donation to GCSA scholarships at the top right-hand corner of this page! There is no stronger statement to make to our undergraduate comunidad than the support of those who came before them!
Some of you may be wondering what Reunión y Despedida is all about. Well, to start, many alumni have been looking for a good occasion to gather. I think celebrating one year of GCSA scholarships is pretty good occasion, right? Despedida will also be an important opportunity for undergraduates and incoming students and their families to meet alumni, faculty and staff community. Finally, Reunión y Despedida will be the first gathering of its kind: a gathering of all members of the Georgetown comunidad: alumni, parents, students, faculty and staff coming.
So….RSVP!! If you are an alumnus/a, make your suggested donation by clicking on the “Donate” button in the above right-hand corner of this page. If you are an incoming student or current student, simply email georgetown.comunidad@gmail.com to RSVP and indicate how many people will be attending with you. This will be a family-friendly event.
