What is Alumnae Day?
Alumnae Day is one day when all alumnae are invited back to campus to celebrate our beloved alma mater. Come back to Ursuline, see the renovated and expanded campus, visit with friends, celebrate our Alumnae Award recipients, and have a great time!
Is Alumnae Day just for alumnae?
No! Spouses and family members are welcome to attend both the Luncheon and the Derby Party. Children 13 and up are welcome at the Luncheon. The Derby Party is 21 and up.
Where are Alumnae Day events?
All Alumnae Day events are on campus:
- The Luncheon is in Fox Dining Hall located in Haggar Center.
- Campus tours leave from The Rotunda.
- The Athletic Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will be in the Theater Lobby on East Campus. This is in our new addition where the convent used to be.
- The Derby Party is in the Gehan Pavilion on East Campus. This is in our new addition where the convent used to be.
What kind of party is the Derby Party?
The Derby Party is a casual come-and-go event. We will live-stream the Kentucky Derby race around 5:40 p.m. You’ll be able to guess the winner for a prize. We’ll have a DJ and good Southern food along with lawn games and a photobooth to capture the memories from the evening. Come for a little or stay the whole night - either way, party the night away!
What is the attire for Alumnae Day?
Derby dress is encouraged the entire day so find your best hat or fascinator and dress for the occassion!
“Sunday Best” is preferred for the luncheon:
