Morehouse College 2013 Commencement activities will start in just a little over a month. This year we will have our Presidential guest for the commencement speech. While having President Obama here will certainly be the highlight of the weekend, there are many fun events planned that will provide opportunities to connect and reconnect with fellow Morehouse Men.
Schedule of Events
A Gathering of Men 2013 celebrating reunion classes ending in “3” and “8”. Reunion 2013 promises to be exciting, filled with old recollections and new memories. Morehouse College is looking forward to welcoming her sons back to the campus—some for the first time in many years and others not so long. Whichever group you fit in, you are every brother – every class – every year.
Commencement Tickets
We are making every effort to accommodate registered alumni in Reunion. We have a very limited number of tickets available and preferential seating will be given to registered alumni.
