With Scarlet pride bubbling over, more than 1,600 Rutgers alumni and friends -- a third bigger than last year's crowd -- converged on campus for Reunion Weekend 2008. The three-day-long festivities kicked off Friday morning with the Golf Tournament, and continued Saturday with the traditional parade down College Avenue. The All-Alumni Luncheon at Brower Commons followed the parade, with tours and special events occupying the afternoon hours. The spotlight shifted in the evening to class dinners, and the traditional Old Guard of Rutgers, providing one more opportunity for old friends to swap stories, memories and laughs.
