Gala Dinner
Saturday, January 27, 2001, Sheraton Fredericton Hotel


Last Year's Gala DinnerLast year, alumni and friends gathered together to celebrate the University’s 90th anniversary with a Gala Dinner. All proceeds raised from this event went to the creation of the Millennium Bursary Program, a fund which provides annual awards to students in financial need.

On January 27, 2001, a tribute to Harry Rigby, long serving professor, founder of the dance band, the Thomists and Dean of Men will be held at the Sheraton Hotel in Fredericton. Again this year, funds raised will go towards the Bursary Program. A reception will be held from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. with the dinner commencing at 7:00 p.m. The Thomists will perform at a dance following the dinner.
