Save the Date: The next Alumni Homecoming Luncheon will be Friday, Oct. 17, 2025, at the Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Airlines Center.

This year's theme is Building Our Community, and will highlight UAA's foundational role in the construction of a thriving and vibrant community. Civil engineering alumni and sisters Melissa Branch, B.S. '00, and Stephanie Mormillo, B.S. '04, will serve as co-keynote speakers. Branch and Mormillo grew up in Anchorage and will share their family tradition of supporting higher education. Branch is the owner and principal engineer of Big City Engineers, LLC, and Mormillo serves as the senior civil engineer for HDL Engineering Consultants, LLC. Both are active leaders in the Society of Women Engineers, have been previous recipients of the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce’s prestigious Top Forty Under 40 award, and serve on the UAA Engineering Advisory Board. 

Alumni Homecoming Luncheon is an annual tradition that also includes a performance by the UAA Pep Band, networking time to reconnect with fellow alumni and campus leadership, and the chance to support the UAA Alumni Scholarship. Doors open at 11 a.m. with lunch service beginning at 11:30 a.m., followed by the program and speakers. 

Table sales for the 2025 Alumni Homecoming Luncheon will begin in late July. Details regarding partnership levels coming soon.
