Alumni Day 2018

Brimmer has so much to be proud of—from the continued success of our alumni to the opening of the new Hastings Center in fall 2017. On May 19, 2018, we celebrated Alumni Day and recognized graduates of years ending in 3s and 8s, in the Hastings Center. Brimmer alums were excited to reconnect with each other and their former teachers and administrators during a full day of reunion activities. 
 
Alumni Day began with a tree-planting ceremony in memory of Raja Safi-Ullah Aziz ’17attended by family, former classmates, teachers, and administrators. Safi will always be remembered fondly and will always remain a part of the Brimmer family. You can find Safi’s tree, along with a memorial plaque, at the far end of the School’s field near May Hall. 
 
A light lunch, workshops, and tours of the new Hastings Center followed the Ceremony. David Cutler ’02, History and Journalism teacher, gave a workshop in the Media Lab in the Innovation Space. He talked to alumni about digital media and journalism and how our students put together The Gator, Brimmer's  award-winning online newspaper, which includes news, sports, written articles and video broadcasts. Alums were then treated to signature cocktails and dinner in the Corkin Family Dining Commons.
  
Head of School Judith Guild and Amanda Spooner Frank ’88, P ’22, Director of Alumni Affairs and Special Eventswarmly welcomed alums to a festive dinner, where the Honorable Suzanne (Vitagliano) Del Vecchio ’60 received the 2018 Alumni Recognition Award. This award is given annually to an outstanding Brimmer and May alum who reflects the School’s mission as an informed, engaged, and ethical citizen and leader in the global community. Suzanne served most recently as Chief Justice and Associate Justice of the MA Superior Court. She is currently a senior mediations and arbitrator at Commonwealth Mediation & Conciliation, Inc.
