2024 Legacy Luncheon

Each year, the Alumni Association is honored to invite incoming NC State students (first year and transfers) with alumni parents or grandparents. This event celebrates those alumni who make NC State a family tradition.

This festive affair included a Wolfpack welcome from Chancellor Randy Woodson, Alumni Association Board President Ryan De Jong ’05 and the current student body president. Students meet representatives from the college they will be attending and have the opportunity to connect with fellow students who will be their new classmates.

The luncheon concludes with an emotional ceremony where alumni parents “pin” their incoming student with a special legacy pin that denotes their NC State heritage. In a grand finale, the NC State Marching Band, “The Power Sound of the South,” leads attendees in reciting the alma mater and fight song.

Thank you to the families who participated in this year’s Legacy Luncheon!
