In late May, the University is sponsoring an Alumni Symposium for volunteer alumni leaders as part of a larger assessment and planning process. As planning for that event progressed, the need for a faculty and staff-specific event was generated. Involving as many alumni currently serving as faculty and staff, regardless of whether they were currently serving in alumni leadership roles, as possible in this assessment process is vital to its success.

This special Alumni Symposium will allow our alumni faculty and staff to have their voices heard and to share their unique perspective to help the University in its strategic planning process for shaping an effective alumni relations program.

 

Additional details are listed below. We hope you can join us!

 

Schedule:

 

8:30 a.m.: Continental breakfast
