About Alumni Weekend


Join us April 30–May 3, 2026!

Adventure awaits!

Intellectual, Creative, Social  

Where will you find fellow bold, independent thinkers? Explore the ideas of today—and tomorrow—with UChicago alumni. 

 

We can’t wait to welcome you back for a slate of events designed for you to

  • explore campus—revisit your forever intellectual home, seeing old haunts and discovering new buildings, along with the people and ideas within them.
  • connect with the Hyde Park community. Find out about the University’s work in the wider community (and stop in at your favorite local hangouts).
  • learn about groundbreaking research: What are UChicago faculty discovering about climate, energy, and the human impact on both? How will technology continue to affect our lives? Gain insight into these questions and more.
  • immerse yourself in UChicago fundamentals. From free expression to rigorous inquiry, take a deep dive into the University’s values.
  • strengthen your alumni network: Connect with old friends. Meet new ones. Network, laugh, and reminisce.

Welcome back!
