Reunions
Homecoming is one of Colorado Law's most treasured traditions, bringing alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends together to celebrate our Law Buff community. Reconnect with the people, memories, and traditions that made your Colorado Law experience unforgettable at one—or all—of this year's Homecoming events, October 2–3, 2026.
This year's includes a special ethics CLE on the Rooftop Terrace at Folsom Field, followed by a Law Buffs Tailgate BBQ before the Buffs take on Texas Tech. It's the first time Colorado Law has hosted the Homecoming tailgate at Folsom, and we hope many of you will join in the fun.
The link to register for Homecoming was emailed to alumni. If you cannot find the original email invitation, please contact lawevents@colorado.edu.
In 2026, we celebrate ten classes ending in "1" and "6". You can find more information about your class reunions below as well as the Digital Reunion Memory Books.
Your memory book is linked below. It's a fun and fast way to connect with classmates and learn what they have been up to since graduation. In addition, you can search for hobbies and interests you share with other classmates and view a map highlighting your classmates' current locations. If you need help, please emailÌýlawalumni@colorado.edu.

This is a private digital memory book created just for our class. If you haven’t already, we invite you to take a few minutes to complete your profile so classmates can see what you’ve been up to and reconnect ahead of the reunion. Feel free to share family photos, vacations, memories from law school, or anything else you’d like. It’s a great way to catch up and celebrate together.
Support our scholarship fund in honor of our friend, J. J. Witt
We also encourage you to support the J. J. Witt Memorial Law Scholarship Fund, established by our class and now standing at $137,115.73. It's a meaningful way to honor J.J.'s legacy while helping future Colorado Law students who demonstrate financial need and embody the qualities that made him so beloved: optimism, generosity, humor, and a genuine commitment to helping others succeed.
You can make a gift by clicking here: and entering "J. J. Witt Memorial Law Scholarship Fund" as the gift designation.
Even better news! One of your classmates, who is generous, brilliant, and has a healthy appreciation for a good laugh (very much in the spirit of J.J.), has pledged to match every gift dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000. In other words, your gift can do twice the good and, we suspect, would earn J.J.'s trademark smile of approval. :)
Help us find lost classmates!
If you know where any of these classmates are, please email Laura Dean with their email address or ask them to update their contact information here.

Dear Class of 1991,
Thirty-five years. It seems impossible that it's been that long since we walked the halls of Colorado Law together, shared late nights preparing for exams, celebrated victories, and forged friendships that have lasted a lifetime.
As we prepare for our 35th Reunion during Colorado Law's Homecoming Weekend, I hope you'll take a moment to add your story, photos, and memories to this BrightCrowd book. Whether you've remained closely connected with classmates or haven't been back to Boulder in years, this is a chance to reconnect and celebrate the remarkable paths we've all taken since 1991.
One of the things that makes me especially proud of our class is the legacy we've created through the . Over the years, classmates have come together to build a lasting source of support for future Colorado Law students, helping ensure that talented individuals can pursue a legal education regardless of financial circumstances. Our reunion is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate not only where our own journeys have taken us, but also the impact our class continues to have on generations of students who follow in our footsteps.
This year's reunion weekend promises to be especially memorable as we celebrate alongside CU's 150th Homecoming.Ìý
Date: Friday, Oct 2
Time: 6-8 pm (exact time TBD)
Location: Rio Grande, 1101 Walnut St, Boulder, CO 80302
Price: $100 per person
I hope you'll use this BrightCrowd book to share an update and help us reconnect before October. Tell us about your family, career, travels, community work, or anything else you'd like classmates to know. The stories we share here will help make our reunion even more meaningful.
I can't wait to see everyone back in Boulder and celebrate the friendships, memories, and legacy of the Colorado Law Class of 1991.

Dear Classmates,
Ìý
It's hard to believe that 50 years have passed since we graduated from Colorado Law. We hope you'll join us this fall as we celebrate this milestone, reconnect with old friends, share memories, and catch up on the journeys that have taken us far beyond Boulder.

The evening will feature heavy appetizers, an open bar and other beverages, and plenty of time to visit with classmates. We will be sharing The Academy with the Class of 1981, but our class will have its own dedicated gathering space, with plenty of opportunities to reconnect with your classmates and mingle with other Colorado Law alumni if you'd like.
Ìý
We are also hoping to create a slideshow for the reunion featuring photos from your time at Colorado Law and the years that followed. If you have law school photos, reunion pictures, family snapshots, travel photos, or other memorable images you'd be willing to share, please send them to Laura Dean.

Earlier that day, we invite you to attend the Golden Buffaloes Luncheon from 12:00 – 1:30 pm at the Wolf Law Building, a special gathering for Colorado Law alumni who graduated 50 or more years ago. Recently retired Professor Mark Loewenstein will present The Law School You Knew vs. the Law School Today, reflecting on what has changed, and what has endured, over the past five decades. His remarks will explore the evolution of the legal profession, legal education, technology, and society, while inviting you to reflect on your own Colorado Law experience.
Ìý
As we celebrate our 50-year reunion, we also have the opportunity to leave a lasting legacy for future Colorado Law students. Our Class of 1976 Scholarship Fund has grown to nearly $90,000, a wonderful testament to the generosity of our classmates.
