Pull up. Bring your friends. Bring your WVU stories.

Still Here. Still Mountaineers. 💙💛

Info: We will begin reunion weekend by honoring the life and legacy of Coach Garrett Ford Sr., a trailblazer whose leadership and impact helped shape generations of Mountaineers.

Coach Ford was more than a coach. He was a mentor, a pioneer, and a powerful presence in the WVU community. Alumni, friends, and the Mountaineer family are invited to gather as we reflect, remember, and celebrate the legacy he leaves behind.

Info: Kick off the reunion weekend by reconnecting with Black alumni and friends from across generations. The Welcome Home Mixer sets the tone with music, good conversation, and a relaxed space to catch up with classmates and meet new Mountaineers.

The evening also features the Black Alumni Marketplace, highlighting alumni owned businesses, brands, and creative ventures.

Come grab a drink, support fellow alumni, and start the weekend off right.

Info: The reunion energy continues with the Black Alumni Tailgate and Cookout!

Expect good food, music and plenty of Mountaineer pride. This is the space to reconnect, represent your class year, and enjoy the kind of tailgate that only WVU alumni know how to throw.

Bring your crew and pull up ready to celebrate. ️

Info: Close out reunion weekend in style at the closing event, a night of music, fellowship, and celebration with Black alumni and friends.

Co hosted with the WV Ques, the evening brings together alumni from across generations for a night filled with great music, good vibes, and Mountaineer pride.
