ALL CLASS REUNION: Johnson & Wales University
alumni from around the world reunited on the Providence
Campus for three days in April. The centennial provided a
perfect opportunity to enhance alumni engagement with
the first reunion of its kind in 100 years. Alumni recon-
nected, reminisced, snapped silly headshots in the photo
booth, toured the
new athletic fields,
and learned about
the new programs
JWU offers students
today.
