Every Hamiltonian knows the Quad — the stretch of green from Soper Hall of Commons to the Burke Library that’s always been the heart of the Hill. It’s where friendships are made, ideas are exchanged, news travels, and Hamiltonians gather before heading out to make their mark on the world.
The Hamilton Quad — known as The HQ — brings that same experience online.

More About The HQ

The HQ is Hamilton’s alumni directory and engagement portal. It’s the one place to find classmates, catch up on Hamilton news, see what’s happening on and off the Hill, and stay involved — available on the web and as a mobile app.

The HQ was shaped in close partnership with Hamilton alumni volunteers and the Alumni Council, and it’s designed to keep growing: like the College itself, new features will continue to roll out based on community feedback.

What You Can Do on the HQ

  • Search the alumni directory & grow your network. Find classmates and friends by name, location, career industry, class year, and more, and reach out directly to alumni, faculty, and staff — you’re always in control of what others can see about you.
  • Discover events. Browse and register for upcoming events near you or back on campus.
  • Volunteer. Find opportunities to give your time and expertise to Hamilton and fellow alumni.
  • Track your philanthropy. View your giving history to Hamilton in one place.
  • Get career support. Post or browse jobs and internships, offer or request mentorship, and connect with current students exploring career paths.
  • Catch up on Hamilton news. See the latest from campus and your classmates without leaving the platform.
