SAVE THE DATE for Reunions
Reunions provide a time for you and your classmates to gather and celebrate your time at Bellarmine or St. Leo’s or Aquinas. Class reunions are planned and hosted by individual classes, with support from Bellarmine’s Alumni Office.  
The Alumni office will: 
  • Provide a class list to connect with your fellow classmates
  • Bellarmine, St. Leo and Aquinas themed SWAG Box including decorations, blank name
    tags, etc.
  • Promote your class reunion on Bellarmine’s alumni webpage and on social media.
  • Send one Save the Date postcard to your class with Reunion information.
  • Reserve space for your reunion on the Bellarmine campus (if desired).
Alumni support and involvement makes your reunion a success! You can support your class reunion by encouraging high attendance from your classmates, collecting updated contact information, helping locate “lost alumni,” or participating as class reunion committee member and help plan your class reunion.
