May 2006 Campus is quiet with the hum of the summer session now in motion. With our new graduates, we have the latest freshly minted batch of alumni coming to a town or city near you. How long has it been since you went to an alumni event in your area and mingled with some fellow eagles? If you want to get involved, either as a leader, volunteer, or maybe by just attending some events, visit the Alumni Programs Web page to check out the latest events, and find out what's going on near you. You never know who you might meet when you reach out and get involved. Have
a great summer! |
