Today, FAU welcomed some special alumni back to campus, as the Class of 1969 was inducted into the Majestic Owls Society. The Society was established in 2015 to celebrate the 50^th anniversary of each graduating class from FAU, beginning with our first alumni from the Class of 1965.

In the late 1960s, FAU was still a relatively new institution, with little history, traditions, or accolades to brag about in the highly competitive world of academics. Yet these Owls chose to pursue their college education here, quite literally breathing life into a fledgling university. We truly appreciate the role these pioneers played in the university’s growth and future success.

We’re very proud of all that these alumni have accomplished in their lives, and very glad that they came home to be part of our fifth class of inductees into the Majestic Owls Society. Happy 50^th Anniversary, Class of ’69! Go Owls!
