All alumni can keep their information up to date by emailing our office at alumni@cranbrook.edu or calling (248) 645-3253 with current contact information. That way we can send regular event updates and reunion registration links.

We look forward to welcoming you and your classmates back to campus.

    How do I register for Reunion events?
    We ask that alumni register for reunion online. The link will be available mid-April. We ask that all alumni, whether they are in a milestone reunion and attending multiple events, or a local alum just going to the cocktail party - to please register online, as it helps us streamline the registration and payment process, as well as our reunion record keeping.

    Can I bring a guest to Reunion?

    Alumni can bring one pre-registered guest. If you have a special request to bring more than one guest, please email alumni@cranbrook.edu.

    Are children invited to reunion events?
    Children are welcome to join events on Saturday and Sunday of Reunion Weekend, with the exception of Quadfest on Saturday night, which is open to alumni and guests who are 21 and older. Families with children are also welcomed to visit our museums and explore campus outside the reunion schedule during Reunion weekend. Campus events on Friday night are open to members of milestone classes and their guests only.
