Hotel Information

"I traveled in June nearly 5,000 miles from Honolulu, Hawaii to Washington, DC for my 45th-year reunion. During Reunion Weekend I enjoyed reconnecting with my GW Law '78 classmates and chatting with other alumni. It was a wonderful opportunity to talk with Dean Dayna Bowen Matthew. Kudos to the Development & Alumni Relations Office team which planned the events including the tours, the Stockton Guard brunch, the family-friendly BBQ lunch, and the All-Class reception and dinner. At the dinner, my '78 classmates and I proudly received The Dean's Cup, which is awarded to the class with the highest overall participation rate in the reunion class gift campaign. Just as I've been doing every 5 years, I plan to attend the next reunion."
