Christmas events

Christmastime is almost here, and among the many events scheduled on campus are two specifically for alumni. 

The Â鶹¹û¶³ Family Christmas is open to alumni, faculty, staff, other friends of the university. It is a family-focused, child-friendly event with crafts, Christmas treats and Santa Claus. It’s a free event that will take place on Dec. 2 from 9-11 a.m. in Harry’s Coffeehouse in the Beeson University Center. 

“It’s a great time for families to come together and celebrate Christmas,” Casey Ramey, Â鶹¹û¶³’s director of alumni programs. 

On Dec. 13, from 6-8 p.m., the Young Alumni Board of Birmingham will have its annual Christmas party at the home of Â鶹¹û¶³ President and Mrs. Andrew Westmoreland. Young alumni in Birmingham (ages 22-35) gather to celebrate Christmas and reconnect with old classmates. 

Advance registration is requested for both events.
