Class of 1976
The Bishop Noll Institute Class of 1976 will celebrate its milestone 50th Reunion during the weekend of October 2–4, 2026. This special celebration coincides with BNI’s 2026 Homecoming Weekend, providing a wonderful opportunity to reconnect not only with our own classmates but also with alumni from across the generations.
The weekend kicks off on Friday, October 2, with the BNI Homecoming Game and a festive tailgate on campus, followed by a post-tailgate social gathering at a location to be determined. Saturday, October 3, offers a variety of ways to engage: we are currently investigating a morning golf outing for those interested, followed by a mid-day informal "jam session" where musically talented (or simply enthusiastic) classmates can gather to play, sing, and reminisce.
The highlight of the weekend will take place Saturday evening with a formal dinner featuring drinks, dancing, and plenty of conversation. We will wrap up our celebration on Sunday, October 4, with a communal Mass followed by a casual breakfast of coffee, donuts, and bagels.
Specific locations for all events will be finalized in the coming weeks. To make travel easier, the Reunion Committee is also arranging a block of rooms at a centrally located hotel. We would love to gauge your interest and hear your thoughts as we finalize these plans.
Please reach out to the committee with your potential participation, questions, or comments at bni76reunion@gmail.com.
