The Executive Director of the Cal Alumni Association, John Clamme, will be in town to participate in the panel event with the Chancellor. We have arranged to have a Happy Hour with him the prior evening so he can meet members of the club, share his vision for the alumni association, and answer any questions you may have. 

Thanks to Happy Hour coordinator Alex Hardee, we will meet at Mission Dupont for this event: 

When: Monday October 26, 2026, 6 pm start

Where: Mission Dupont, 1606 20th Street NW, Washington DC 20009. Dupont Circle Metro on the Red line

This will be a no host event like all happy hours, and each person will pay for their own food and beverages. Please use the RSVP function to sign up for this event so we know how many people to anticipate. 

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Save the date for an upcoming reception with Chancellor Rich Lyons and a panel of experts from UC Berkeley to talk about public service!

Confirmed Speakers include;

Rich Lyons: UC Berkeley Chancellor

Sandra Bass: Associate Dean and Director of the UC Berkeley Public Service Center

John Clamme: CEO of the Cal Alumni Association

David C. Wilson: Dean of the Goldman School of Public Policy, UC Berkeley
