Past Events

All Decades Reunion

The first All Decades Reunion was held Homecoming Day on, at the Hurley Administration Building. The event brought over 40 Green Jackets together, spanning from the 1938 "wart" year to the late 1970's, just prior to the organization disbanding. Some Green Jackets had not been back to UNT nor seen their "sisters" since graduation. Many brought memorabilia such as photos and scrapbooks to share memories with one another. Dr. Gretchen Bataille, President of UNT and Dr. Bonita Jacobs, VP for Student Development welcomed the attendees and Dr. Jan Hillman presented letters from 2 Green Jackets that were unable to attend who were 95 and 100 yrs. old.

Green Jacket Exhibit

An exhibit and reception honoring the Green Jacket history and service to UNT was held at the Archives in Willis Library. Over 25 Green Jackets attended the event and reconnected with their "sister" and reminisced about their years at UNT. The Archives staff recorded oral histories and stories from the attendees for the University's oral history collection. Green Jackets can join the NT Exes InCircle, the free networking site of the UNT Alumni Association, to stay in touch and communicate with one another.
