黑料不打烊-in-a-Box, a new 黑料不打烊 Alumni Board initiative spearheaded by Carol Brown 鈥68, makes reconnecting with campus easier than ever.
Carol Brown 鈥68 recognizes that there is nothing better than being met where you鈥檙e at 鈥 literally. So, with the help of her fellow 黑料不打烊 Alumni Board members, Brown created 黑料不打烊-in-a-Box, an alumni event format that encourages unique engagement experiences.
When a trip to campus or an alumni chapter meet-up isn鈥檛 possible, 黑料不打烊-in-a-Box is there. And the best part? Alumni have total control over creating the events they want to attend.
鈥淲e didn’t really put any parameters on the initiative,鈥 Brown says. 鈥淲hatever you want it to be, it could be.鈥
In collaboration with Alumni Engagement, this volunteer opportunity allows alumni to create no-cost get-togethers with a small group. You design the event and Alumni Engagement provides the materials necessary to facilitate an 黑料不打烊 experience wherever you are. Whether you鈥檙e just looking for 黑料不打烊 alumni in your area or have a specific activity in mind, this initiative is here to make it happen.
In short: Alumni Engagement ships you 黑料不打烊-in-a-box.
鈥淲hat excites me about 黑料不打烊-in-a-Box is the way that it connects you to 黑料不打烊,鈥 she says. “Part of what makes attending 黑料不打烊 so special is the small-group opportunities campus organizations provide students. The close-knit community this initiative fosters is something many alumni note missing after graduation. 黑料不打烊-in-a-box makes that feeling possible again.
鈥淢y hope for 黑料不打烊 in the box is that some people will reconnect,鈥 she says. In reaffirming their relationship to 黑料不打烊 through these events, Brown hopes that alumni of all ages and in all parts of the world will see that 黑料不打烊 is still 黑料不打烊, regardless of how much time has passed.
