1977 årskursträff 1.9.2022

On 1 September 2022, this group of alumni celebrated their 45-year reunion since starting their studies in 1977 at Hanken. The group gathered at restaurant The Cock and the atmosphere was great! Five years has passed since the previous gathering and there were many voices saying that they should meet more often. Perhaps gathering at After Works between the more festive occasions to start. The “Class of 77” warmly recommends others to reunions and perhaps even visit Hanken together. As we know; once a hankeit, always a hankeit!

Alumnerna från 1955 på årskursträff på Hanken

In September 2019, a group of alumni gathered at Hanken to celebrate the 55-year anniversary of starting their studies in 1964. The celebrations included a welcoming speech from Rector and the President of the Student Union sharing information about Hanken's activities today. After a tour of the NoCo exhibition, the festivities continued at a nearby restaurant. The atmosphere was great with songs and speeches, just like at Hanken 55 years ago. Many of the participants had not seen each other since they completed their studies. In hindsight, these reunions should have been organised earlier, but better late than never.

Alumner från 1960 på årskursträff på Hanken

Hanken's class of 1956-1959 celebrated their 60-year anniversary at Hanken with a tour of the ongoing art exhibition and lunch in the teachers' lounge. Rector Karen Spens welcomed everyone with an interesting presentation about Hanken's activities today. The class have started to have reunions since 1963, the same day President Kennedy was murdered. After that irregurlarly, but every year since 1999.
