Dean's 50th Society honors alumni celebrating the milestone of their 50th Reunion. This special tradition recognizes the lasting impact and lifelong connection of Dean graduates, welcoming each class into the Society during Commencement Weekend. As members of the 50th Society, alumni are invited to reconnect, reminisce, and celebrate the legacy they helped shape, while inspiring future generations of Dean students. Each year, as the new class is inducted, all prior members are invited to return in celebration.

Honoring the Class of ’76: 50 Years Strong

The countdown to the Class of 1976’s 50th Reunion and induction into Dean’s 50th Society has begun! This milestone celebration will take place during Commencement Weekend, May 8-9, 2026, and plans are already underway to make it unforgettable.

 A Legacy to Celebrate

 It’s hard to believe it’s been nearly 50 years since your time at Dean Junior College – when  the Dean Demon led the charge, and lifelong friendships began. Let’s come together to celebrate your legacy and create a weekend to remember.

How You Can Get Involved

Reconnect with Fellow Alumni

We want to reach as many classmates as possible. Share this information with your Dean friends and encourage everyone to update their contact info here so they don’t miss out on any reunion details.

Join the 50th Reunion Planning Committee

No experience necessary! Just bring your enthusiasm, ideas, and a little time each month to:

  • Help shape reunion events
  • Reconnect with classmates
  • Encourage attendance and spread the word

To become involved or for more information, contact Joanne Coluccio, Director of Alumni Engagement, at jcoluccio@dean.edu or 508-541-1656.

This is your moment to make the Class of 1976’s 50th Reunion the best one yet!
