EngineeringAlumni Society The rings and pins given during today’s ceremony were generously donated by the Engineering Alumni Society
The Engineering Alumni Society was formed in 1994. In its inaugural year, the Society captured the University’s Outstanding Alumni Society Award. Since then, the EAS has grown and improved through the active involvement of our alumni and has been selected three times more as the University’s Outstanding Alumni Society. EAS members enjoy many benefits through the USF Alumni Association. Throughout the year, the EAS board provides opportunities to socialize, learn and advance your career through Bull Sessions, tailgate parties, networking events, becoming a Corporate Ambassador and participating in our annual fund raiser Bullarney, a casino night that benefits student scholarships, conference travel grants and more.
