Welcome Alumni and Friends!

The Alumni Association provides a variety of ways for you to become active with the College. You may:

• Function as an Area Representative providing a direct linkage to your local/state society and the College
• Work with the Board Committee making recommendations on College publications – Alumniscope, Shared Visions Magazine, and Focus on Philanthropy
• Participate in Commencement or Reunion Weekend
• Participate in a network to provide shadowing to prospective students

The Alumni Association is especially involved with Reunion weekend that takes place over the President's Day weekend in February. Upwards of 200 people participate in this affair and it is a special time for the anniversary classes—those celebrating every ten-year anniversary. The 25-year and 50-year anniversary classes are especially honored at this time.

In addition, the Alumni Association supports the work of the staff on College publications, area gatherings, maintenance of the alumni database (which is not available to the public at any time, but may be relied upon to reach a special friend or classmate at a professional address) and with the placement and practice sales services.
