Regional Alumni Chapters - Alumni

Alumni Chapters organize events that strengthen ties between Reedies. Chapters are places to connect with other Reedies—whether you’re new to a region or just want to reconnect with others who share your Reed values.

Upcoming Chapter Events

GOLD PIZZA PARTY—October 10, 2026, 5 p.m. your local time.

Your path may have parted from the Reed bubble, but you’ll never stop being a Reedie. The alumni community is here to make sure you don’t have to wander the post-grad wilderness alone. Join Reed Alumni Chapters everywhere Saturday, October 10 as we throw pizza parties to celebrate YOU!

Do you live in a chapter region but don’t receive emails for chapter events? Make sure your IRIS profile is up to date and includes your current address. Updating your profile helps fellow Reedies connect with you. Need help logging in? Check out our IRIS Guide or email alumni@reed.edu for assistance.

*Puget Sound, New York, and Denver chapters are currently in need of volunteers. Email the office of Alumni Relations if you are interested in organizing an event in those areas.
