Golden 'Roo Weekend

October 17-19, 2025

Alumni hugging at Golden 'Roos celebration 2023
Golden Roos 2023 Medallion Ceremony
 
Join us for this special weekend for our Golden 'Roo alumni to reunite with classmates and friends on campus, especially those who are celebrating their 50-year reunion, the Class of 1975!

For questions regarding Golden 'Roo Weekend, please contact Kristi Lucchese, Associate Director of Institutional Events and Alumni Engagement.

 

Golden 'Roos are Austin College alumni who graduated 50 years ago or more, including those who attended during that time but did not graduate. These alumni are honored each year as another class reaches their golden anniversary. Members of the Class of 1975 will officially become Golden ’Roos during the weekend’s Medallion Ceremony, while those previously honored are invited back to celebrate with them

If you would like to serve on this year’s Golden ‘Roo Planning Committee or have questions regarding the weekend please contact Kristi Lucchese, Associate Director of Institutional Events and Alumni Engagement, at 903.813.2419.
