Class of ’76 Lunch
11:30 a.m.–1:00 p.m.
After an action-packed morning, it’s time to pull up a chair and relax. Join your classmates and share a meal together while catching up after years away. Enjoy a delicious buffet lunch and keep the conversation flowing!

Class of ’76 50th Reunion Panel
1:15–2:45 p.m.
ALL RIGHT NOW:  FROM THE FARM TO OUR 50TH

We’re here! We’ve experienced a half-century of plans, detours, wipeouts, reinventions, and friendships that have lasted a lifetime. We’ve had bold leaps, plot-twists, goof-ups, and lots of fun. And we’re still standing!

Join classmates as they share memories of escapades and tomfoolery, and what Stanford actually taught us that survived real life. Hear stories of oddball, messy, and unpredictable episodes. Expect honesty, humor, and some irreverence! Reconnect with our Class of ’76!

Class of ’76 50th Reunion Party
6:30–10:30 p.m.
50 Years Later…and Still Fabulous! Join us for the ultimate Class Party at the Traitel Building, right at the foot of the iconic Hoover Tower. This is THE 50th reunion bash—equal parts nostalgia, laughter, and a little bit of “Can you believe it’s been this long?" We’ll kick things off with a lively outdoor reception, giving you plenty of time to reconnect, reminisce, and maybe do a double-take or two. Then settle in for a fantastic dinner from one of San Francisco’s top caterers. Catch up with old friends, meet classmates you missed the first time around, and make brand-new memories along the way. Same great class—just with better stories. Don’t miss it!

Homecoming Hangout
Noon–3:30 p.m.
Welcome to the Homecoming Hangout, a new addition to the Reunion Homecoming experience designed for all. This informal gathering space in the Alumni Center backyard invites all Stanford alumni—whether you’re celebrating your undergraduate reunion or returning as a graduate alum—and their families to reconnect with the Farm in a relaxed atmosphere.

It’s the perfect spot to unwind between scheduled events, purchase a snack from the CoHo café located inside the Alumni Center, and soak in the pre-game excitement. There will also be a Kids Rest Stop with activity tables under shade to give them (and their parents) a break. No tickets or reservations required—just drop by and make yourself at home.

Find that special group of friends you most want to see from your days on the Farm and get ready to cheer on the Cardinal. Enjoy all-you-can-eat tailgate fare, beer, wine, specialty cocktails, and mocktails. Join the fun and festivities with your classmates. It’s All Right Now!

Calling all Class of ’76 Stanford fans, athletes, Dollies, and yell leaders! Come strut your stuff on the football field while being honored on the Jumbotron in front of a packed house of cheering fans. Dress in comfortable Cardinal and white tailgate attire. More details to follow regarding timing, once the football game time is announced! Note: You must have a football game ticket and be a member of the Class of ’76 to participate.
