Climb up to the treetops during a canopy tour at the Botanical Gardens, become inspired as your neighbourhood friendly TRIUMF scientists show you the world’s largest cyclotron, and don’t forget to grab a famous “UBC cinnamon bun” on the way to a lecture!
On May 28 - 30, UBC is hosting its Alumni Weekend. UBC is inviting alumni, friends, and family to join the festivities—nearly a hundred events will take place around campus this weekend for a cultural, social, and intellectual odyssey.
A special tour of TRIUMF will be among the numerous activities on Saturday, May 29. If you would like to see Canada’s physics powerhouse on UBC’s south campus, just bring a print out of your Alumni Weekend registration. (Check in first at the University Fair at the Flagpole Plaza and your nametag will grant you access.)
Many events are family-friendly and free! For registration and a full schedule of events, visit http://www.alumni.ubc.ca/events/alumniweekend/2010/schedule.php. Come join the party!
