Gone are the days of lectures and midterm papers, but one thing that has stayed with you since college is your close-knit friend group. Your college crew was there for every late-night study session on campus and meeting up at the local diner for burgers and fries. Now that you’re all fully vaccinated and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says it’s safe to travel, you’re planning a much-needed reunion. Whether it's an official gathering or a random get-together, you need Instagram captions for college reunion pics when you’re meeting up with friends after a long time apart.

You don't know what you would have done without your besties in college, which is why you love every chance you get to meet up again. Sometimes, it’s something planned out like a Sunday brunch or an unofficial reunion at someone’s wedding. Whatever the occasion, you know the minute you’re all together again, it’ll be like no time has passed at all. You’ll spend most of your time recounting funny stories from classes or dishing on dorm life memories. Just don’t forget to use this opportunity to take as many pictures as possible as well.

Get some big group pics mixed with silly selfies. You could even try to recreate a fave photo you have from your college years, and when the time comes to post on the 'Gram, use one of these 25 quotes as your caption. You don’t want to waste a single second of precious reunion time coming up with something on your own. Just plug away and get right back to catching up.
