We’re all a few years older than we were in 1979 (yes, even you…), so it’s no surprise that the topic of healthy aging is of paramount importance to most of us. Did you know that more than 50 percent of all adults 65 and over have one chronic disease, and 25 percent have two or more? What can one do to mitigate the progression of existing chronic diseases while preventing new ones from developing? Dr. Rob Schreiber will answer these questions and more in an interactive presentation, focused on the concerns and questions of those in attendance. He will share the latest from the medical literature, plus lessons learned from his many, honored, older patients and role models. Good medical care is essential to healthy aging, but it only accounts for 10% of health outcomes, so what accounts for the other 90 percent? What can you do to promote your own healthy aging and live your best life? Step one? Don’t miss this presentation!

The tower offers long views down to the Connecticut River and all the way to Mt. Ascutney.

On-Campus Housing
Housing registration opens on Tuesday, March 4, 2025. You must register for Reunion before signing up for dorm housing!

- Nightly Rate: $64 per person
- Registration Deadlines:
- June Reunions: Register by Monday, April 14, 2025, at 11:59 PM ET
- July Reunions: Register by Monday, May 5, 2025, at 11:15 PM ET
- After the deadline, housing will move to a wait list and will be filled based on availability. A $10 late fee will apply to waitlist requests.
Housing confirmations will be sent in mid-April for June Reunions and mid-May for July Reunions. Specific room assignments will be shared approximately two weeks before Reunion.
Dartmouth residence halls offer a variety of room types, including multi-bedroom units. While we do our best to accommodate requests for adjoining rooms, availability is limited. Be sure to include the names, ages, and relationships of your party members when filling out the housing application to help us determine the best arrangement.
While staying in an undergraduate residence hall offers a nostalgic college experience, these spaces do not provide hotel-style amenities.
- Rooms include: Single (twin) beds, linens, a blanket, pillow, towels, a cup, and a bar of soap.
- Daily housekeeping is not provided.
- Bathrooms: Most rooms do not have private baths.
- Air Conditioning: Not all dorms have AC, and summers in Hanover can be warm—plan accordingly.
- Accessibility: Several buildings have accessible first-floor rooms, and some have elevator access. Service animals are welcome, and accessible accommodations can be requested in the Personal Requests section of the housing application.
Due to high demand, early check-ins and late departures cannot be accommodated. If you need extra nights in the area, you will need to arrange alternative housing.
For the best chance at securing on-campus housing, register early and complete your housing application by the deadline. We look forward to welcoming you back to campus!
Important Information

Area Accommodations
While we think staying in the residence halls is a lot of fun, we understand if you need different accommodations. We encourage you to make a hotel reservation as soon as possible. Dartmouth does not hold hotel blocks (at the Hanover Inn or elsewhere) for Reunions, but your class may. Check with them before booking an area hotel.
- Local Hotel Accommodations
- Upper Valley Rentals
- Don’t forget to also check out Airbnb, Vrbo, Quechee Lakes rentals, Eastman Lake rentals, and bed-and-breakfasts.
- Alternative area lodging options can be found through our local area chambers of commerce.
This information is intended to serve as a guide to many area accommodations and does not represent a recommendation by Dartmouth.

Parking and Transportation
- Dartmouth College parking guidelines are in effect Monday through Friday, 6 a.m.–5 p.m. During that time, valid permits are required to park in all campus lots except the A Lot or the Dewey Lot. The A Lot is located at 1 Smith Rd., Hanover, NH 03755, and the Dewey Lot is at the north end of campus (near the Geisel School of Medicine). Alumni Relations is not responsible for any tickets incurred.
- "No Parking" signs are posted around campus and are expected to be adhered to for safety reasons.
- Town of Hanover parking meters are in effect during Reunion; it is possible to get a ticket if not adhering to parking regulations. You can download the ParkMobile app to pay for parking around Hanover.
- There is no scheduled transportation between area hotels and campus.
- Taxis and rideshare services are not readily available in the Upper Valley, so please plan accordingly.
