165th Charter Day Celebration
Rockford College celebrated our 165 birthday on February 29th, 2012! Sunil Puri ('82) shared heart-felt and engaging remarks during this year's Charter Day Convocation. For more on his address, click here!
Following Convocation, alumni, friends, students, faculty and staff were invited to celebrate with the College in a traditional birthday party format. The After-Hours event was complete with birthday hats, cake and candles!
Charter Day Alumni Gatherings in Atlanta, San Francisco and Japan were simultaneously taking place and were included in the event on campus via Skype!
Thank you to all those who were able to join us on campus or in Atlanta, San Francisco or Japan to celebrate Rockford College's 165th year!
