Grinnell Black Alumni Network
Grinnell Black Alumni Network aims to create community and facilitate relationships between Black alumni, Black students, faculty, and staff by empowering members through each stage of their Grinnell journey.
Thank you for attending!
Thank you for making the 2025 Black Alumni Weekend an unforgettable success. You traveled from near and far and put your faith in the Grinnell Black Alumni Network to deliver a meaningful experience. This weekend, you showed up for yourselves, for each other, and most importantly, for the students. We hope that this weekend provided you with an opportunity to reconnect with Grinnell in a meaningful way.
For those of you who were unable to attend, we missed you and hope that you'll be able to attend the next reunion. We'll share more information about how we will continue to build our GBAN community. While Black Alumni Weekend is a critical gathering point for us, there are other ways to connect with the community and get involved!
