Celebrating alumni excellence
Get recognized for your stellar alumni achievements - apply for the AB50 Champion!!
Dear Friends,
It is the summer in the northern Hemisphere. Normally it is quiet, but this year, less so for me!
I hope you can take a deep breath. Relax. Reflect on your achievements, even if only for an hour on Alumni Friday!
This is also a chance to tell your fabulous alumni story!
I am honoured once again this year to join Dr Jay Dillon, Dr Shalonda Martin and Jenny Cooke Smith on the jury to assess the Almabase 50 Champions in alumni relations and advancement! This year is a global search - so if you are an alumni-facing professional anywhere in the world, you can apply!
The link is here Alamabase’s 50 Champions in Advancement
Deadline is August 15th.
You can read about some of the compelling stories from last year's awards.
Over the past month or so, I have heard about the Alumni Galaxy at the Deggendorf Institute of Technology, participated in CERN Alumni's 8th Anniversary and attended a fabulous mash-up alumni BBQ and city Arts Festival concert at the University of Galway with over 250 alumni in attendance!
And this is just the beginning of little stories that can grow alumni champions.
No challenges this week. Just a chance to dream - and to apply- for the AB50C Awards!
We look forward to hearing your trailblazing alumni work!
Your with alumni inspiration,
Maria
