Accommodations for Alumni Weekend 2006
Headquarter hotels have been assigned for each reunion class, as well as the all-WEMBA reunion, to maximize interaction with classmates. Alumni may choose to reserve a room at any hotel, but it is our hope to establish a “home base” for each class.
When requesting a room within a block, be sure to say, “Wharton Alumni Reunion Block.” Due to Penn Alumni Weekend and Graduation on the same weekend, we strongly urge you to book rooms early. Should you need to cancel, many hotels will refund deposits if given sufficient notice, please check your hotel’s policy.
