Alumni Engagement

Important note: This event has been canceled. 

Please join us as we gather to honor our lost classmates from 1981 at our class tree, on the north side of Painter Hall. Rain location: Chateau Grand Salon.

Set in Vermont and filmed over six years, Traces of Time follows the final chapter in the life of filmmaker Sim Hutner’s mother, Frankie Hutner, class of 1940, with striking intimacy and restraint. The film won the Shouldice Family Prize for Best Vermont-Made Film at the 2025 Middlebury new Filmmakers Festival.

Choose your own outdoor adventure!

• All-Class Golf Scramble: Register online by May 21 at go.middlebury.edu/scramble. You can make a 1986 foursome or the golf course will place you with a group. See more details in the separate golf scramble event.

• Chipman Hill Hike - meet Susan Ballard and Jen Forelli at the trailhead at 504 Washington Street for a 2.2-mile scenic, wooded hike. The hike should take about 1.5 hours.

Join us to share memories of classmates who are no longer with us.

Kick off your 25th Reunion with classmates at Mister Up’s. Enjoy appetizers, wine, and beer in a relaxed, social setting, with the full menu available for purchase. A perfect way to reconnect and start the weekend together.

The 25th Reunion hike has been changed to Silver Lake instead of Snake Mountain, which is currently closed due to peregrine nesting. The Silver Lake trail is a moderate 3.2 mile hike past the Falls of Lana. Sign up in the 25th class lounge in Prescott House, and meet at 9:00 am in the Ridgeline parking lot to board the bus and depart.

Enjoy lawn games and play music with fellow members of the class of 2001 during this laid-back afternoon. Bring along an acoustic instrument if you like!

This event will take place on the courtyard and porches at the Ridgeline Townhouses.

Join your 2001 classmates for a spirited 9 or 18 holes of golf at the beautiful Ralph Myhre Golf Course! Complimentary tee times available from 8:30–9:30 AM. Lunch will be provided at the Tavern on the Tee. Register online by May 21 at go.middlebury.edu/25thgolf. Carts available day-of: $25 for 18 holes / $16 for 9 holes (per person, at check-in). You do not need a full group to register. If you have less than a foursome, the golf course will do their best to group you with other players.

Upon arrival, please check in with College staff in Prescott House Lounge to get your name tag, housing assignments, and more!
