Welcome Knowledge Integration Class of 2017

Alumni Weekend is a special time for all University of Waterloo alumni to reconnect, reminisce and revisit campus - either in person or virtually. This year is even more special as we celebrate your 5-year class reunion!

2:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. Class Reunion Get-together

  • Join your class champion, Erin Jamieson and your fellow Knowledge Integrators from the class of 2012 back in the studio for a time of fellowship and fun! Relive such excellent memories as reading Banding Together, and debating which font to use on our didactics, as we participate in fun activities to test how literate, numerate, articulate, and collaborative we’ve stayed 5 years out!

  • This is technically the 5-year reunion for the class of 2017, but we want to expand the invite to everyone who was a part of Berlin II. KI is a flexible degree and many of us did not follow an exact 4-year plan. We want to see everyone who ever:

    • Dressed up as John for Halloween
    • Marveled at the Pergamonmuseum in Berlin
    • Forgot a drop cloth during museum install
    • Spent far too long choosing your poster colours/fonts for the Thesis Symposium

    • If any of the above sounds familiar, then this reunion is for YOU!

6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. KI Reunion BBQ

  • KI 2017 Class Champion, Ryan Voisin will be hosting a casual backyard BBQ after Alumni Weekend. Note: This is not part of your online event registraiton. If you are interested in joining, please notify Ryan directly or email Alumni Officer, Dheana Ramsay

Take a musical trip down memory lane with the Class of '17 reunion playlist.

Stock up on awesome alumni swag in time for Alumni Weekend.
