Alumni Involvement Is Vital!
The success of the Alumni Insider’s View…Programs rests upon the
willingness of our alumni to share their expertise with the
students who one day hope to follow in their footsteps. You
can participate in these important student engagement initiatives
in a variety of ways, such as serving as a discussion leader or

to engage our students, we’d love to hear them.
