Please note that you must be registered for Reunion to participate
This year’s Reunion features an extraordinary lineup of two discussions that will leave you inspired and proud of the remarkable community you’re a part of. We’ve assembled a formidable panel and presentation of Ancients, students and guests who will speak to you on two subjects: “Beyond the Theory: Our Lived Feminism Experience” and “Leading Boldly: Women on the Frontline of Finance.” Learn more about the panels below!
Threads of Us: Our Lived Feminism Experience
A Cross-generational Dialogue on Shaping Everyday Life
What does feminism look like when it moves past textbooks and into the real world? Join us for a dynamic, intergenerational panel that bridges the wisdom of our Ancients with the energy of current students.
Moderated by Claire Shen ’28 this session features Ancients representing diverse generations, industries, and backgrounds, paired with current student voices. Together, they will share personal reflections on how feminism actively manifests in today’s workplaces, schools, cultural traditions, and everyday lives.
This event offers a unique opportunity for collaboration and dialogue between Ancients and students with an interactive breakout discussion session that will open up space for deeper connection, where attendees are encouraged to share their own stories, and inspire one another. Don’t miss this powerful conversation.
Leading Boldly: Women on the Frontline of Business & Finance
A formidable panel of Ancients will share their stories of how they have relied on their intellect, curiosity, and creativity to find solutions to challenges they face within their communities and careers, and how an MPS education prepared them for the moment we are in.
Join Meaghan Casey ’04, Kathrine Fugge ’06, Maggie Johndrow ’06, and Dawn Lazarus ’87 in this dynamic discussion as they share about their academic and career experiences in the field of business and finance.
*This panel is still forming. Check back often to see updates.

Reunion weekend is Friday, October 16 – Sunday, October 18, 2026.
Registration will open on July 7, 2026.
While all Ancients are welcome to register and attend a Reunion Weekend, Reunion 2026 will be specifically celebrating the Reunion years of Ancients whose classes end in 1 or 6.
We offer a tiered pricing system, 1-day Saturday registration, and also offer early bird pricing if you register by August 16, 2026. Please refer to the registration section of this post to view our pricing options.
You are welcome to bring your family, particularly during daytime events, but keep in mind that the majority of Ancients tend to attend solo to use the opportunity to reconnect with classmates. All guests must be registered for reunion – the same cost that applies to an Ancient applies to their guest as well.
If bringing children, please note that we do not offer any child-specific programming.
Stay tuned! We will begin updating the “See Who’s Coming” list in September!
We strive to update the list of attendees once per week. If you have registered but do not see your name listed, please check back the following week.
