Pacific Alumni Association Welcome to University of the Pacific! The Alumni Association oversees activities, events, and benefits for University of the Pacific Alumni. The Association is made up of eight staff members and a 30-member volunteer board of directors, and hosts more than 150 programs and events each year. The Pacific Alumni Association is a non-dues-based organization, which means any student who attends for one year and leaves in good standing can take advantage of alumni benefits and services. Here are just a few ways the Alumni Association plans to connect with you and your student during the 2020–2021 school year:

Career Networking The Pacific Alumni Association, in collaboration with the Career Services Center, helps students make meaningful and productive connections with alumni. The Tiger-to-Tiger Networking app gives students, regardless of their class standing, access to alumni to gain firsthand knowledge of career paths and receive general career guidance. Alumni are regular guest speakers in Pacific Seminar classes, providing excellent examples of community and professional engagement. The Alumni Association regularly sponsors on-campus networking events to bring students and alumni together.

Homecoming and Family Weekend Homecoming is about reconnection – to your student and the University. Homecoming @ Home will look a little different this year, but we can't wait to reconnect with alumni and families from around the globe during this two-day celebration! Homecoming @ Home events are free to attend for the entire Pacific family. View the schedule and register in advance at Pacific.edu/homecoming. We look forward to seeing you online, October 9–10, 2020. Questions? Email the alumni office at PacificAlumni@Pacific.edu.

Traditions Pacific students and their families have an open invitation to visit the Alex and Jeri Vereschagin Alumni House and learn about Pacific’s history and traditions from the displays and exhibits located in the house. Since it opened in the summer of 2011, the Vereschagin Alumni House has become one of the premiere event spaces on campus. Reserve the Alumni House for your special event by phoning 209.946.2610 or email AlumniHouse@pacific.edu. The Alumni Association is honored that your student has chosen to attend this wonderful University. We are proud of the legacy that alumni have left to their alma mater and we expect your student will add luster to the rich heritage of Pacific.
