Calling All Pioneers!
Help us launch a new initiative to engage Utica alumni
Utica University is excited to announce a new initiative to provide opportunities for alumni to expand their professional network and enhance their alumni experience while staying involved with Utica through the four channels of engagement: giving, volunteering, attending, and connecting.
We are looking for volunteers to serve on Regional Alumni Committees to help develop and plan more social, cultural, and educational programs in your area.
Some ideas include:
- Host and/or help plan events, such as happy hours, receptions, small dinners, behind-the-scenes tours, educational panels, etc.
- Maintain a Facebook group and other social media pages
- Encourage diverse alumni attendance at Utica events
- Encourage alumni to support Utica University philanthropically
- Attend a college fair or admissions event and speak to prospective students
- Coordinate community service projects
- Help plan an upcoming class or affinity reunion
- Share your industry insight with students and recent graduates
- Develop new ways to enhance the value of the Utica University alumni network
