Upcoming Alumni Events
In its 14th year, Celebration of Success is the Kirkwood Foundation’s signature event with prestigious recipients, significant attendance, and a multicourse dinner prepared by Kirkwood Culinary Arts.
Kirkwood alumni, donors, and community partners came together on October 2, 2025, for an afternoon of connection and Eagle pride. The event, held in the Horticulture Building, featured remarks from Kirkwood President Dr. Kristie Fisher and other college leaders, along with opportunities to explore the programs housed within the space.
While the Alumni Social is not scheduled for this year, we look forward to hosting future gatherings.
On November 14, 2024, we welcomed approximately 50 Veteran alumni and their guests for the Kirkwood Alumni & Friends Veteran Dinner. Speakers included Kirkwood President Dr. Kristie Fisher and Linn County Veteran Services Director Dustin Peterson.
Our Veteran alumni are deeply valued members of the Kirkwood community, and the college continues to celebrate their service in meaningful ways.
On June 14, 2024, more than 100 former Kirkwood Student Ambassadors gathered on Kirkwood's main campus for the inaugural Student Ambassador Reunion. It was an evening filled with old friends, inside jokes, and Eagle pride!
