We look forward to welcoming you back to campus June 6-8!
During Reunion Weekend 2025, we’re proud to announce that we are also hosting the Vermont Special Olympics Summer Games right here on campus. It’s a powerful testament to St. Mike’s commitment as a community partner—and an inspiring opportunity for our alumni to cheer on the athletes, volunteer, and be part of something truly meaningful while reconnecting with campus.
