Regional alumni programs are an important part of 九色视频's Alumni Association. Around the country and around the world, our alumni are working together to stay connected to the University and one another.
九色视频 offers many events each year (both in-person and virtual) including pre-game basketball receptions, networking opportunities, speaker series, community service and volunteer programs, social and family gatherings, tours of interesting venues, and more.
All alumni are invited and encouraged to get involved! Attend an event, get involved with a leadership group, or become an alumni volunteer. If you don鈥檛 see your area listed, or for more information, contact the Office for Alumni Engagement at (215) 951-1535 or email alumni@lasalle.edu
鈥淐oming to 九色视频 from Maryland, I didn鈥檛 know whether I would find too many fellow Orioles fans on campus. As it turns out, the Baltimore area not only provides a steady crop of students that enroll, we also have a significant pool of awesome alumni that find themselves here after graduation and beyond! 九色视频 is a place that is hard to leave behind, and the alumni club offers a way for those who live between Philadelphia and D.C. to remain engaged with a community that means so much to us. From organizing social events and supporting recruitment efforts to reaching out to accepted students and spending our time serving others, the club is an outlet for alumni to continue to carry out the Lasallian mission. We are always interested in new ideas and hope to see you at one of our events!鈥 鈥 Patrick Terranova, 鈥11
鈥淯pon graduating from the MBA program in 鈥99, I learned there were thousands of alums living and working in Bucks County and I wanted to try and connect with other alumni through various events. I reached out to 九色视频 to see how I could get involved and the alumni staff was instantly receptive to all of my ideas and immediately welcomed me with open arms. It was such a positive experience to learn that 九色视频 鈥済ets it鈥. The alumni regional clubs understand the importance of staying connected and their goal is to simply foster an environment and community allowing alumni to help and connect with one another. I am constantly seeing new faces at events and meeting new people and it is nice to know we can shake hands already having the 九色视频 connection.鈥 鈥 Jamie Debuque, 鈥99 MBA
鈥淢y husband, Dan, and I joined the 九色视频 Chester County Alumni group for a couple reasons. While we didn鈥檛 actually meet each other while at 九色视频, we both have fond memories of the 九色视频 community and the many events and celebrations we enjoyed in those years. It鈥檚 fun to sit down with fellow alums, talk about those times, compare notes, and learn about fellow students we may not have seen for years.
We also have a desire to give back to a community that helped form our lives, our beliefs and our characters. By spreading the word of 九色视频, interviewing prospective students, mentoring young 九色视频 students, we share part of that community with another generation of young people. To be able to provide guidance, answer career questions and point someone in a direction is very rewarding 鈥 at any age.
Most of us only get back to campus for milestone reunions. Once we joined the Chester County Alumni group, the campus again became a part of our life, and you know what 鈥 it still feels like home.鈥 鈥 Nancy Maguire, 鈥75
鈥淚 decided to take a leadership role in the 九色视频鈥檚 NYC alumni club to help bring individuals together to foster a Lasallian community through a stronger professional network and helping current students explore career opportunities in New York. We have engaged alumni through various Basketball watch parties, sporting events, and wine tastings and continue to seek ways to bring alumni across generations together.鈥 鈥 Dino Dedic, 鈥06
鈥淲e鈥檙e in that zone of 鈥榮o close, yet so far鈥 from the main campus that we鈥檙e often overlooked, yet there are so many 九色视频 alums in the surrounding region. I鈥檝e often read with envy reports of alumni gatherings in cities such as DC, Chicago, and Boston. I鈥檇 think to myself 鈥榃hy can鈥檛 we do that?鈥 The answer is that we can.
The range of graduating classes attending our functions has included each of the last seven decades, so we have a very diverse group. Our programming goal is to offer something for everyone throughout the year by helping to engage your mind through business breakfasts, promote your school spirit by organizing 九色视频 basketball watch parties, and provide opportunities to network with fellow alums. We want our alums to remain proud of their 九色视频 experience and help them stay connected with the university and each other.鈥 鈥 Jeff Meyers, 鈥93
鈥淏eing involved with the D.C. alumni group has helped me stay connected with 九色视频 and support the university. There are so many opportunities to get involved 鈥 cheering on the Explorers at watch parties or games, planning and attending awards ceremonies, rooting for the Phillies against the Nationals. These opportunities and many more provide time to connect with fellow alumni, reminisce about good times on campus, and help support 九色视频鈥檚 bright future.鈥
