ALION FOR LIFE | Alumni News
Alumni Association Looks Ahead In August, new Alumni Relations Manager Krystal Harris ’15 welcomed new and existing members of the Alumni Association Board to the first group meeting of the year. Leading the Board this year are chairpersons, Jim Platania ’08 and Jennifer Culhane ’00. Despite not being able to plan for a homecoming tent or class reunions due to COVID-19, the group has already begun sharing ideas on how to bring alumni together this year. Among the first steps will be some virtual networking events for the Loyal Hearts Business Forum. The Board is responsible for connecting and interacting with over 15,000 graduates of Saint Viator and Sacred Heart. We’ll update their progress in future editions of A Lion for Life and through the monthly Alumni eNewsletter. To learn more about how you can be involved with the Saint Viator and Sacred Heart of Mary Alumni Association, contact Alumni Relations Manager Krystal Harris at kharris@saintviator.com. To submit personal updates like new addresses, phone numbers, photos, please email them to alumni@saintviator.com.
