Introducing Guidebook, the Alumni Weekend Guide app

This year, in coordination with campuswide sustainability efforts, we are providing the Alumni Weekend Guide through a mobile app, "Guidebook." Guidebook can be downloaded to your tablet or smartphone and can also be accessed from a desktop or mobile browser. The full schedule of events, College facility hours, important phone numbers, and much more is available on Guidebook. You can plan your weekend with a personalized schedule, receive important updates, and connect with fellow attendees all from the palm of your hand. We strongly encourage you to download the mobile guide to enhance your experience.

Guidebook is a mobile app that allows you to download the entire Alumni Weekend Guide to your smartphone or tablet or access the Guide through a desktop or mobile browser.

Is Guidebook compatible with my device?
