While we had to take a pause from an in-person Reunion, over 900 Ephs from over 40 states engaged with Williams in some small way throughout Reunion 2020. Whether joining one of the virtual programs, exploring the archives, venturing out on a sunrise hike, wearing a bit of purple, sharing your voice, or zooming with a fellow classmate, Williams is so much more than a campus. And you are reminders of that every day.
