Class of 1986

Dear Fellow Class of 1986 Trojans,

Can you believe it’s been 30 years?

Remember ’SC’s 30-6 victory over Stanford at the Coliseum? “Flying to the danger zone” with Tom Cruise in Top Gun? Dancing to “Kiss” by Prince and the Revolution, “Rock Me Amadeus” by Falco and “Addicted to Love” by Robert Palmer?

Get fired up to celebrate our 30th Class Reunion as part of the 2016 Reunion Weekend, November 4-5. As proud members of the Trojan Family, the USC Class of 1986 Reunion Committee invites you back for some good times

Our Class of 1986 30th Reunion Committee has been hard at work with USC Alumni Association staff, planning a memorable Reunion Weekend with lots of chances to catch up with classmates and meet new friends. The action-packed two-day event will include a Friday luncheon, photos with our beloved mascot Traveler, a Reunion Weekend welcome convocation, a spectacular reunion cocktail reception and dinner, followed by our class-specific after-celebration on Friday night and a pre-game tailgate extravaganza in Alumni Park on Homecoming.

Check out the spectacular and ever-growing USC campus and take a few selfies in front of Tommy Trojan before you “kick the flagpole” on your way to the historic Coliseum, where we’ll cheer the Trojans to victory over the Oregon Ducks. To keep up to date about events taking place over Reunion Weekend 2016, be sure to click here.

So “Register” today, join our Class of 1986 Facebook group and remember to invite your friends to join us so we can all celebrate Reunion Weekend 2016 together this November!

Fight On!
