Q: If I choose to stay on campus, where will I be? What can I expect in my room?
A: While staying on campus offers the opportunity to
relive your college days and enjoy a convenient location, on-campus
housing is simple and will not come with the same amenities as a hotel
room would. Though subject to change, you can plan that your room will
be equipped with fresh bed linens, pillows and towels. Please note, on-
campus accommodations do have shared bathrooms and no air
conditioning or phones. It is suggested that guests of on-campus
housing bring bath towels and an alarm clock. Cell phones are
recommended. Due to fire safety policies, only one person is allowed in
a single room, and only 2 people are allowed in a double room. -
Q: Are children allowed at the Reunion Class parties?
A: While pictures of your kids would be fun, actual kids might not be such a good idea. The Saturday night class party is 21+. If your child is of legal drinking age and you want to bring your grown-up child as your guest, then go for it! If they are little tykes, it may be best they skip the Saturday class party. (Please do bring photos to show and tell!) They are welcome earlier in the day at lunch and the next day at brunch.

Q: I want to make sure there are a lot of people from my class. How do I do that?
We want that, too! One great way to help is by becoming a Reunion Volunteer. Each class has a group of volunteers that help encourage attendance for Reunion. They send e-mails, make calls, and reach out to friends via social media to help guarantee a good class turn out. If you're not sure you want to be a volunteer, you can still encourage friends by reaching out to your personal networks and sharing your Reunion enthusiasm on Facebook. The most important part of encouraging attendance is leading by example. If you register for Reunion, your friends are more likely to register for Reunion! To learn more about volunteering, please email Alice.Shah@tufts.edu.
