University at Albany - Gold Reunion

University at Albany faculty attracted $391.7 million in research funding in 2007-2008, an all-time high and a reflection of the breadth and global impact of UAlbany research and scholarship.

If you were at last year’s first-ever GOLD reunion,
you know what a good time it was.

Join the fun at this year’s GOLD reunion
during Homecoming 2009.

Good friends, free food and free beer.
