Due to the ongoing pandemic, current mandatory indoor group gathering restrictions and our concern for the health of our friends and families, the College of Environment and Design has decided to cancel the March 6, 2021 gala. We are very disappointed that we were unable to make the gala happen. We know you are disappointed too, but we hope to safely gather in a manner befitting our planned celebration in the not so distant future.
50th Anniversary Celebration
Tate Center Grand Hall
5:30 pm
Join alumni, students, faculty and friends for a memorable evening as we mark the official close of the 50th Anniversary year with drinks and dinner. We’ll dine in fine fashion and toast the winners of the Owens 50.
Dinner provided by Hallie Jane’s. Open bar. More details to come, but if you confirmed
your spot prior to the rescheduling, you will receive updates by email.
