A Message from the Alumni Association President
O
n behalf of the Board of Directors of your Alumni Association, I wish each of you and your families a happy and safe holiday season. I don’t need to remind you of all of the things we can be thankful for during these tumultuous times. Students have once again returned to walk our campus and enjoy all that it and the borough have to offer. It’s wonderful to see our campus again populated with Golden Rams! As you reflect on your years at the University, be thankful for your experiences that helped shape the person you are today, and contemplate what you may be able to do to assist a current student through your involvement. You also should consider registering on our new Perks Connect website (wcuaa. perksconnection.com) to take advantage of all of the benefits afforded to alumni. By now many of you have participated in Homecoming, have contributed to our 150 Forward Campaign, toured the Sesquicentennial exhibit in Francis Harvey Green Library, and walked through the new SECC building, the largest on campus. Please note that the Alumni Association funded the Sesquicentennial Exhibit, as well as the Learning Stairs in the SECC Building. The fall semester is coming to an end and I am looking forward to an exciting 2022. Leading your Alumni Association’s Board of Directors is a privilege. They are a group of dedicated members who continue to work to lead our Association so that it is well positioned to offer engaging opportunities and benefits to our more than 117,000 alumni — both today and in the future. Finally, remember that Golden Rams step up, show up, and stay up until the work gets done. That’s why we say Rams Up!
We have kicked off our celebration for West Chester University’s 150th anniversary and are excited about the rest of the academic year ahead. We continue to look forward to engaging with our alumni all over the globe in new ways to commemorate this tremendous milestone of our institution. As ambassadors of our great alma mater, the WCU Alumni Association alumni chapters work hard to connect with our alumni through social events, professional networking, service initiatives, and fundraising. We hope you join them this year as we celebrate our Sesquicentennial Anniversary. Below is a list of the alumni chapters available.
