25th Anniversary Celebration: November 7-8, 2025

The Templeton Honors College at Eastern University invites you to a once-in-a-generation celebration—our 25th Anniversary and the grand opening of Templeton Hall, our first permanent home. Together, we’ll thank God for His faithfulness, honor the past, and look ahead with hope to the decades to come.

The festivities begin Friday, November 7 with an Alumni Gathering at La Cabra Brewing in Berwyn. On Saturday, November 8, celebrate Templeton Hall and take part in seminars with emeritus professors, a musical showcase, art exhibits, lunch in the Claritas Courtyard, and tours with Dean Williams and the architects. That evening, join us for our 25th Anniversary Gala Dinner at The High Point Malvern, featuring Malcolm Guite, reflections from faculty and alumni, a silent auction for student scholarships, and an elegant meal with friends. Reserve your place today and be part of the next chapter in the Templeton Honors College story!
