Just a couple of weekends ago, campus shined bright in orange and black as about 26,000 members of the University’s Tiger family — representing classes from 1939 through 2024 — returned to Princeton for Reunions. Together, they welcomed the Great Class of 2025 into the alumni community and celebrated connections with each other and with their alma mater.
In a new video filmed during Reunions, fellow alumni shared what Princeton means to them and why they give back to the University through Annual Giving. “I give back to Princeton because Princeton gave me so much — not only through the education, but also through the values that it instills in you, through the friends that you meet and through the great community you get to be a part of,” Marko Medvedev ’22 said.
“When you’re at Princeton, you feel that you’re part of something that is bigger than yourself,” said Mary Pagnotto ’00. “That’s something that lives with you forever.”
Annual Giving support is more important now than ever. This year’s campaign ends on June 30, and every gift matters.
