Did you know that 319 members of the Class of 2002 live in the NY Metro Area?

With our 10th Reunion on the horizon, April 20-22, we are gathering our classmates who live in NY. Let's reconnect, celebrate our upcoming reunion, and find ways to re-engage with the university on the eve of our 10th Reunion.

This event is intended to both celebrate all that has been done by the Class of 2002 (volunteering and giving) as well as create an opportunity for alumni to re-engage with the university who have otherwise been disconnected.

We will gather at 8:30 pm (tip-off is at 9:00 pm) at Brother Jimmy's Murray Hill for a half-hour of free well drinks and beer*, followed by drink and food specials throughout the game.

*In order to enjoy the half-hour of free well drinks and beer, you must get a wristband from the Duke NY check-in table downstairs, where we will hang out to watch the game (with sound).
