Whether that providing opportunities to visit the campus, catching up at reunions, ing at happy hours, or visiting cities outside of the area, I want to engage mni in meaningful activities that will make them want to come back.

hort term, I plan to beef up our alumni's social media presence, lish an alumni newsletter, and launch a blitz campaign to update alumni tion.
