YOUNG ALUMNI
ACADEMY 2018-2019 CLASS DIRECTORY
Welcome to the Nebraska Alumni Association’s Young Alumni Academy! First of all, thank you for taking the initiative to become a part of this program. Your interest in staying engaged with your alma mater speaks highly about your drive and character. Second, congratulations on your selection. You were chosen for this experience based on your past leadership and your desire to remain connected to Nebraska. The Academy was established to benefit you, the member, and the university. We want to provide you opportunities to network with Nebraska’s campus leaders and other outstanding young professionals. We want to broaden your exposure to the university and share with you all the wonderful things happening at Nebraska. We want to equip you with the information, skills and tools you need to serve as ambassadors for the university; to give you many reasons to feel proud and share that pride with others. Lastly, we want to groom you for ongoing engagement with Nebraska throughout your lifetime – as volunteers, spokespersons, association members and donors. You are the next generation of university leaders, and we intend to prepare you well for this important role. Our staff and many of our colleagues throughout the Nebraska community look forward to spending time with you over the next eight months. Thank you again for your commitment to the Academy and enjoy the experience!
