Government Employees, Contractors and Consultants!

  • Are you a pillar of the “Deep State” 
  • Here to “Make America Great” or
  • Totally apostate

No matter where you stand, or what you seek, you are cordially invited to celebrate Columbia Alumni in Public Service with an Open Bar from 6pm to 7:30pm (selection of Canyon Road wines and drafts) at Pennsylvania 6.

Metro stop: McPherson Sq.

Congregate, collaborate, communicate, commiserate, integrate, machinate, remonstrate but most of all celebrate with fellow classmates. Join us in fellowship for a convivial and joyful evening.
