QUEEN’S UNIVERSITY
ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
Dear Members of the Queen’s Community,
As Queen’s Principal and a proud alumnus,
it is a great pleasure for me to welcome you
to Homecoming 2014. This weekend provides
a wonderful opportunity for us to reconnect and
share memories, make new friends and expand
our networks, and celebrate the spirit that makes
Queen’s unique.
As you well know, Homecoming was reintroduced last year after being
suspended in 2008. It remains of the utmost importance that we work
together to ensure that Homecoming 2014 is a safe and respectful event
on all fronts. With that in mind, I hope you will enjoy everything we have
planned for you, from the various sports events, to a performance or tour
of our stunning new Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts, or a
reception with the Dean in your home faculty or school. I hope you will
take time to meet and engage with our current students, whether it’s at the
Pumpkin Smash with Queen’s Engineers Without Borders and Queen’s
Gives Back or while enjoying breakfast at Leonard Hall Cafeteria. I would
also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been involved
in planning and executing Homecoming 2014, including our staff and many
volunteers.
There is a great deal to look forward to over Homecoming weekend.
Whether you are celebrating your 5th reunion, 50th reunion or beyond,
we’re very glad you’re here. I know you already have many fond memories of
your time at Queen’s, and I hope Homecoming 2014 will provide you with
lots of opportunities to create new ones.
Welcome home to Queen’s!
Sincerely,
Daniel R. Woolf, Artsci’80

n behalf of the Queen’s University Alumni
Association (QUAA), I’d like to welcome all
of the alumni and their guests who have arrived
on campus to celebrate Homecoming 2014! Many
of you have travelled a long distance to rekindle
friendships, memories, and connections, and I hope
that your weekend at Queen’s, and in the city of
Kingston, feels as much like coming Home for you
as it does for those of us who live here all year round.
Thank you for taking a trip down Memory Lane.
O
The vision for the reintroduction of Queen’s Homecoming that was established
last year is carrying on strong in 2014. The renowned “Queen’s Spirit” is
on vibrant display this weekend as we alumni connect with current students,
reminisce with our Faculties, Schools, and past professors, engage in the
Kingston community, and of course, reunite with one another.
In addition to reuniting, another important aspect of Homecoming is
celebrating the remarkable contributions you, Queen’s alumni, make yearround, worldwide. Fostered while students, our spirit of volunteerism and
philanthropy is a force to be reckoned with. Take the time this weekend to
really consider how your contributions, and those of your classmates, have
impacted the life and health of this university and the communities beyond
Queen’s – and will continue to do so in the future!
I encourage you to contact me if you’re interested in learning more about the
Queen’s Alumni Association. Your Association’s mission is “to reach out and
foster a lifelong association with Queen’s, to engage our alumni in the life and
work of the University, and to serve the broader Queen’s community in all its
diversity.” There are many different ways that you can get involved with your
alumni associates – visit our website or drop us a line any time!
Cha Gheill!

OFFICE OF THE MAYOR
To the many Queen’s alumni, family, and friends who will be joining us this
weekend – welcome home!
For generations, Queen’s has been a center for personal growth, academic
achievement, and creative enterprises. As a proud Kingstonian and Queen’s
graduate myself, I am very pleased to welcome you back to our community.
The friendships and experiences that you enjoyed while living in our
community will be memories you will always cherish. The degree you
earned at the completion of your studies represents your dedication,
determination and hard work. I hope this weekend provides an opportunity
to revisit the memories and landmarks that coloured your university years.
During your visit I invite you to take time
to rediscover Kingston: our beautiful
waterfront, wonderful new cultural
attractions, restaurants, and museums. I look
forward to welcoming you back soon for one
of our great festivals, such as the Limestone
City Blues Fest, Kingston Writers Fest, Feb
Fest, or the Kingston Canadian Film Festival.
Be sure to join us in 2015 as we celebrate
the bicentennial birthday of our most
famous Kingstonian, Sir John A. Macdonald.
Have a wonderful reunion weekend!
Sincerely,
Mark Gerretsen,
Mayor
