Seton Hall University Invites Alumni Home for a Weekend of Celebration, Reconnection, and Purpose
Tuesday, June 2, 2026
Seton Hall University is proud to invite alumni, families, and friends to Alumni Weekend 2026, taking place June 5–8 across northern New Jersey. Organized by the Division of University Advancement,
the weekend brings together three events: the 39th Annual Many Are One Alumni Awards
Gala, the Third Annual Alumni Reunion, and the Second Annual Alumni Golf Outing. Each
offers a distinct opportunity to reconnect with fellow Pirates and invest in the students
who carry the University’s mission forward. Additionally, proceeds from the weekend
directly support the First-Generation Scholarship Fund, which provides financial assistance
to first-generation college students. Those students are also supported through the
RISE (Resilience, Integrity, Scholarship, and Excellence) program, which helps them
find their footing, build community, and thrive.
39th Annual Many Are One Alumni Awards Gala
The weekend opens on Friday, June 5, with the 39th Annual Many Are One Alumni Awards Gala, beginning at 6 p.m. at Maritime Parc in Liberty State Park, Jersey City. Now in its fourth decade, the Gala honors alumni whose achievements and service reflect the University’s deepest values. This year’s honorees are Brian Fitzpatrick ’04 and Craig McGraw ’05, recipients of the Alumni Impact Award, and Nicole Mouskondis ’12, recognized as the Most Distinguished Alumna. There will also be a special recognition of the Young Alumni Council for their outstanding service to the Seton Hall community.
Mouskondis is the CEO and Board Chair/Director of Nicholas and Company, a third-generation, family-owned broadline foodservice distribution company in the Intermountain West, and holds a Master’s Degree in Strategic Communications and Leadership from Seton Hall. McGraw is Vice President of Sales & Marketing at Trans American Trucking & Warehouse, a two-time NJBIZ Forty Under 40 honoree, and a current board member of Team Walker, the Jersey City nonprofit founded by Seton Hall basketball legend Jerry Walker. Fitzpatrick, a survivor of the 2000 Boland Hall fire, has devoted his career to advocacy and service. Most recently, he helped advance national fire-safety legislation that led to the introduction of the Seton Hall Fire Victims Remembrance Act. Fitzpatrick also serves on the board of Aspiring Kindness, which has awarded more than $320,000 in grants to first responders, hospitals, and the University, and is the CEO of Forge Signworks, a commercial sign company that he founded in 2021.
Seats and tables are still available; register for the Many Are One Gala today.
Third Annual Alumni Reunion
On Saturday, June 6, the University’s South Orange campus will welcome alumni back for the Third Annual Alumni Reunion. The celebration honors milestone classes ending in 1 and 6, with special recognition for the Class of 1976, Seton Hall’s newest Golden Pirates. The day features live music on the green, headlined by Slippery When Wet: The Ultimate Bon Jovi Tribute and Shorty Long & The Jersey Horns; food trucks; tours of campus, residence halls and the Basketball Performance Center; a theatre performance, and refreshments at “The Pub.” The celebration then closes with a Reunion After Party at Bunny’s, hosted by the Young Alumni Council.
Alumni can still register for the Reunion online. Out-of-town accommodations and campus parking are available.
Second Annual Alumni Golf Outing
Alumni Weekend concludes on Monday, June 8, with the Second Annual Alumni Golf Outing. The event draws Pirates together for 18 holes of golf, lunch, dinner, and prizes. Foursomes are currently sold out, but those interested in future outings and/or individual openings are encouraged to join the waitlist for next year!
All three events during Alumni Weekend 2026 reflect the priorities at the center of For All, Forever: A Campaign for a Greater Seton Hall, the University’s $225 million comprehensive campaign. Supporting students through RISE is among its most urgent calls to action, and the weekend offers the Pirate community one of the most direct ways to answer it. Learn more at shu.edu/forallforever.
