This is where you will check in to get your registration packet, room key if you are staying on campus, and your name tag. This will also be the central location for class activities and socializing.

Generally on Friday and Saturday nights, your headquarters will be a comfortable place for pre- and post-dinner socializing. The headquarters is also the ideal spot to have a quiet conversation with friends, look at old yearbooks, or just put your feet up for a while.

Access card use is required throughout the weekend. For security reasons, the main entrances to all residence halls have been equipped with a card reader system. Simply place your card on the reader to unlock the entrance.  All reunion guests are issued an access identification card when they register at their class headquarters that allows them access to dorms.

They are also happy to answer any questions you have about the campus and what it's like to be a student at Middlebury today. Please take a minute to introduce yourself to your hosts!
