Alumni / Dons Together Apart

Our alumni are changing the world from here, there, and everywhere. 

As our alumni and alumni community continue to manage the impacts of the global pandemic, our community stands committed to being in service of others.

"The shut-down will be a tremendous challenge for our industry to overcome. If this goes much into the new year, the impact could be catastrophic. We thank God for our hard-working employees and guests who have kept us in business. We have been in the City for 84 years. Thank God for the friends we've had to visit us, and for the delivery services who will safely bring warm meals to be enjoyed over the holidays.  This has changed restaurants forever, but what will not change is our industry's commitment to caring for our employees and guests." John Duggan Sr. '63
