Family Weekend Slideshow

By Bowdoin News
Bowdoin's annual Family Weekend, which took place this year from October 30 to November 1, was planned with a schedule full of ways for guests to experience campus life.

Among the offerings were drop-in classes, a pancake breakfast, jazz brunch, a haunted Bowdoin tour, supernatural stories at the Arctic Museum, open houses across campus, athletic events, a student research symposium, a celebration of academic excellence, and a student dance and a cappella show. 

And there were a few costumes! 

Throughout the gorgeous fall weekend, families also used the time to kick back and relax with their student.

Here are some moments from the weekend.
