Class of ’01 25th Reunion Dish Hike: We’ve Still Got It!
8:00–9:30 a.m.
Start your Friday with fresh air and unbeatable views of the Farm. We’re tackling the Stanford Dish Trail, and we’re offering two ways to do it. Want to conquer the full 3.7-mile loop in an hour? Go for it. Prefer a leisurely, lower-impact walk to catch up with old friends at a relaxed pace? Perfect—we’ll have a turning-back point just for you. Bring the family and choose your own adventure! Meet at the Stanford Avenue trailhead. Reunion registration not required. Questions? Contact Alice Singh at dikyan@gmail.com.

Class of ’01 Lunch
11:30 a.m.–1:00 p.m.
After an action-packed morning, it’s time to pull up a chair and relax. Join your classmates and share a meal together while catching up after years away. Enjoy a delicious buffet lunch and keep the conversation flowing!

Class of ’01 25th Reunion Panel: Cardinal Lessons: 25 Years of Pursuing Wisdom, Resilience, and Gratitude
1:15–2:45 p.m.
Many of us had rigid ideas about what it means to be successful in life when we graduated from Stanford in 2001. In the last 25 years, we have been through a lot (9/11, health issues, financial crises, COVID-19, evolving family dynamics, among other challenges) that’s caused us to look at our lives with intention as we seek meaning, fulfillment, and joy. Panelists will reflect on their experiences and share how their perspectives have evolved over the past 25 years on their journey of life after Stanford—looking toward the future with hope and resilience.

Class of ’01 25th Reunion Progressive Art Walk
3:00–4:30 p.m.
Be inspired by the creative energy on campus! Explore the art at Stanford, new and old, while catching up with friends in a mobile pre-party. The adventure will begin after the Class Panel. Wear your walking shoes and participate in this event, which is exclusive to the 25th reunion. Kids welcome!

Class of ’01 25th Reunion Party
7:00–11:00 p.m.
Wassup, Class of 2001! Can you believe it’s actually been 25 years? The time has come to throw your hands in the air and celebrate how far we’ve come. Dust off your finest bling and come chillax with your fellow Cardinal. There will be delicious hors d’oeuvres, dinner stations, desserts, and premium drinks (including a full open bar and plenty of EANABS).

We promise the night will be absolute bomb dot com as we catch up, reminisce, and give each other major props on the last quarter-century. Don’t even think about dipping early—you’ll want to stick around to enjoy the custom photo booth prints, impromptu games of beer pong, and rekindled connections.

Trust us, this night is going to be off the hook. AS IF you’d miss out!

Homecoming Hangout
Noon–3:30 p.m.
Welcome to the Homecoming Hangout, a new addition to the Reunion Homecoming experience designed for all. This informal gathering space in the Alumni Center backyard invites all Stanford alumni—whether you’re celebrating your undergraduate reunion or returning as a graduate alum—and their families to reconnect with the Farm in a relaxed atmosphere.

It’s the perfect spot to unwind between scheduled events, purchase a snack from the CoHo café located inside the Alumni Center, and soak in the pre-game excitement. There will also be a Kids Rest Stop with activity tables under shade to give them (and their parents) a break. No tickets or reservations required—just drop by and make yourself at home.

Class of ’01 Tailgate
Join your classmates for an exclusive in-stadium tailgate experience! Enjoy all-you-can-eat fare, beer, wine, specialty cocktails & mocktails, festivities, and plenty of fun as you reconnect with the friends you cherish from your days on the Farm. All Reunion Homecoming passes that include the 25th Reunion Class Tailgate also grant you access to the Homecoming football game, so you can rally together before cheering on the Cardinal. Please enter the Stanford Stadium at Gate 4 and follow signs to your tailgate in The Archway in the north end of Stanford Stadium. It’s All Right Now!
