Dear Member of the Class of 2008:

On behalf of the Office of Alumni Affairs, let me congratulate you and welcome you to the Lafayette College Alumni Association, where you now join more than 27,000 graduates worldwide.

As a member of the Alumni Association you will receive various publications including the Alumni News, which will keep you informed of alumni, faculty and campus happenings. You will also receive invitations to educational, cultural, community service, networking, social and athletic events that our office offers throughout the year. Our next major alumni events are Reunion, scheduled for June 6-8, 2008 and Homecoming scheduled for October 4, 2008. Please continue checking the events calendar on the alumni home page http://www.lafayetteexperience.com/alumni/ (choose Alumni Calendar of Events) for upcoming events.

Another way to stay connected is through Lafayette’s Alumni Online Community available to you beginning in April through the alumni home page (choose Alumni Online Community, then Register). This Community is FREE and offered exclusively to all Lafayette alumni. It is a great resource and will help keep you connected to your friends and alma mater. When you register for the Community, you will receive a lifetime email address that permanently affiliates you with Lafayette College. You will also have access to the alumni online directory, live class notes, the College’s events calendar and the opportunity to upload your resume. Staying connected couldn’t be easier! I would also encourage you to get involved with a chapter in your area. Our hope is you will stay connected to Lafayette no matter where you go. (For a current listing of alumni chapters visit the alumni home page; choose Chapter Home Pages).

When you arrived on campus four years ago, little did you know how much this place would change your life. Forever. And as the years pass, you will look back on your time here with growing fondness and will take your Lafayette Experience with you in all of your future endeavors. Lafayette will always be a part of who you are.

We are proud to have you represent Lafayette College as one of our alumni. Please remember to keep us apprised of your address and employment changes as well as your personal and professional accomplishments. Congratulations to you and your family and friends who celebrate with you.

Welcome to the Lafayette family.

Warmest regards,
Sherri Jones
Director of Alumni Affairs
