Across Cities, One Community
CEPT alumni across America come together in many ways, sometimes in large reunions, sometimes in small, spontaneous gatherings. These meetups are moments to reconnect, share stories, and celebrate our shared bond as CEPTians. Conversations often drift from memories of the School of Architecture’s early days when the campus was still taking shape to reflections from younger alumni on life in studios after the restoration and the evolving culture of CEPT. Across generations, these exchanges keep the spirit of CEPT alive wherever we meet.
