Alumni Weekend 2027

Friday, April 9 - Saturday, April 10

McDaniel College’s 4th Annual Alumni Weekend took place April 9-10. Green Terrors from near and far were invited back to the Hill for a weekend of celebration, connection, and tradition, with milestone reunions honoring class years ending in 2 and 7.

The weekend began Friday with a lively happy hour hosted by the Alumni Coalition for Belonging & Impact, followed by the Alumni Association Awards ceremony. Saturday featured a full slate of favorites, including Green Terror Teachings, the Vow Renewal ceremony in Little Baker, the return of the Alumni Weekend crab feast, milestone reunion celebrations, a gathering for former Green Terror athletes, and other family-friendly events.
