Remember your first days at Potsdam?

The Reunion 2026 Alumni Decade Challenge is helping future students create memories of their own.

You probably don't remember your schedule.

You probably remember the people.

The friend who sat next to you.
The person who lived down the hall.
The classmate who became part of your story.

Every gift helps your alumni decade climb the leaderboard and supports Orientation Trailblazer Awards for students who are making the most of their first days on campus.

Make your gift today and help future students start their Potsdam story strong.
