The Long Beach City College Journalism Program
will host a reunion Friday, May 8, to continue the historic tradition, reunite, show off the new area, give away plaques from decades gone by, further develop a mentorship program for current students and collect funds for a scholarship.
Current students, alumni, faculty and staff will gather in the newly renovated Journalism-English P Building, historic P113 Lounge, P135 high-tech journalism office, P134 computer lab and courtyard at
4901 E. Carson St., Long Beach.
The event begins at 5 pm. Light refreshments will be served.
A brief program will be presented at 6:30 and the reunion will conclude at 8 p.m.
Organizers are spreading the word to students from any class since the college opened in 1927, not just City magazine and Viking news. Former or current journalistic coworkers, professionals, colleagues and others who might be interested are also welcome to attend.
A Facebook page will further promote the event and participants are encouraged to use Twitter and other social media to reconnect with fellow alumni.
