Alumni office creates new ways to connect during COVID-19

The Office of Alumni Engagement is creating new ways to bring alumni together during this challenging time. New additions include specialized lectures from noted alumni and faculty, personalized messages of hope from chapter leaders and alumni spotlights. A virtual book club is being launched in collaboration with the Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County and Maag Library.

The alumni team is also sending targeted messages of encouragement from alumni to current students. And in collaboration with the Office of Communications, we are featuring alumni, faculty, staff and students who are fighting on the frontlines to combat this crisis. Our modes of outreach and communication have adjusted to meet the challenges of the time. Continue to visit our Facebook page.
