2026 Alumni Weekend Friday, Oct. 23
More than 270 alumni enjoyed a beautiful weekend in Williamsburg, reminiscing with former classmates and learning about the state of the Law School today. Alumni Weekend opened Friday afternoon with an intimate champagne toast for the Class of 1976 in the Penney-Young Courtroom . Class members reflected on their favorite memories from Law School—some academic, some not—and how their lives and careers were shaped by their decision to attend William & Mary 50 years before.
Debra Prillaman, reunion committee member for the Class of 1976, proposed a toast to “learning to think like a lawyer, write like a lawyer, find fast friends and establish a good foundation to become a citizen lawyer, which William & Mary does so well.”
On Friday evening, alumni from all classes congregated in the Penny Commons, within the Hixon Center, for a Welcome Reception.
