Wristbands are not required for attending lectures or performances, watching the P-rade, or attending the concert and fireworks.
Faculty and staff may register for wristbands for themselves and one additional guest (21 years or older) in person. Reunions wristbands are $65 per person. A University ID and valid driver’s license with photo or valid passport is required for pick-up. The pick-up schedule is as follows:

In an effort to support sustainability at Reunions, alumni are encouraged to bring reusable items such as water bottles, mugs, utensils and plates. Visitors staying in dorm rooms can participate in the Bring Your Own Linens program, which helps to cut down on water usage. A housing credit is available for alumni and guests who bring their own sheets and towels.
