 Get the Drift?

Curious about what your classmates have been doing since graduation? Participate in your Class Reunion Drift. Take the online Drift survey to submit your favorite memories and updates on your life after Butler. The survey will ask you about your time since Butler, including personal and professional accomplishments, and about your memories and involvement on campus. Survey submissions will be compiled for an online publication, which will also recap Homecoming 2011 and your class reunion. Only members of the reunion classes will be sent the web address to access this publication. If you prefer not to be included, please contact the alumni office at alumni@butler.edu or (800) 368-6852, ext. 9946. Submissions will be accepted through September 30, 2011.

Support Butler in Honor of Your Class Reunion

What better time to support a Butler education than during the anniversary of your own? Student tuition covers only a portion of Butler's operating costs. The rest comes from people like you: alumni, parents and friends who support Butler through generous gifts of time, talent and resources. Please consider a gift to Butler in honor of your class reunion. Gifts to the University continue your legacy at Butler while helping today's students create legacies of their own.

The Class of 2006 has chosen to support the Young Alumni Book Fund as a meaningful designation for your gift. This is a brand new scholarship fund and $10,000 is needed for its endowment, which will exponentially increase its impact for years to come.  Preference is given to a student entering his or her senior year.  It helps students pay their book expenses.  Together, the Class of 2006 can have a significant impact on the lives of Butler students who receive this scholarship for years to come!

If you prefer to support another area on campus that is important to you, please feel free to do so.

Please click here for more information about the many ways to make your gift. For answers to additional reunion giving questions, contact Samantha Bray, Assistant Director of Annual Giving, at sbray1@butler.edu or (317) 940-8555.

Make your travel plans early!

October 21-23, 2011 will be a busy weekend in Indianapolis! We encourage you to make your hotel reservations as early as possible to ensure availability. Butler has several hotel partners that would be happy to assist you in booking a room, based on availability. Please mention that you are with Butler Homecoming when placing your reservation.
