Thank you for joining us at this year’s Alumni and Parents Weekend at Homecoming — coming together to create new traditions, deepen our connections, and write the next chapter in the Berkeley story! We look forward to seeing you at Berkeley’s signature event next year when it's Berkeley Time all over again. The dates will be posted in early 2026.

Relive the weekend's best moments in our newly released photo album and YouTube playlist!
