In honor of the Centennial, this year's runway show will showcase student fashions of the past. What were students wearing on campus in the 90’s? How about the 60’s?

The Eastern Cup is one of the most prestigious golf fundraising events in the region, hosted at the oldest private country club in the United States. Two of the club’s award-winning courses, Wissahickon and Militia Hill, are recognized for their outstanding layouts and course conditions, and will also be hosting the Truist Championship in May of 2025. Participants of this year's Eastern Cup have the opportunity to play on these esteemed courses, the same as the top 70 best golfers in the world.
This special event celebrates Eastern’s Centennial Year, as well as the progress the university has made in its A Time to Rise campaign–a $30 million initiative focused on four key areas: upgrading campus facilities, bolstering opportunities for students, enriching the learning experience, and supporting competition and achievement through athletics, clubs, and offerings. All contributions and sponsorships received through the 2025 Centennial Eastern Cup will directly impact these initiatives and enrich the lives of students at Eastern. We are incredibly grateful for your support and participation in this event.
