The 2024 Mock Convention
|
|
|
|
We have a jam-packed edition of Generally Speaking this month. February is always a busy time on campus, made even busier this year with the alumni trustee election (read more below) and Mock Convention 2024. The students were amazing, and you can learn more about their process and nominee prediction below. |
I also want to highlight the dance performance a few weeks ago in New York City that brought together students and alumni from the Repertory Dance Company for a great show, followed by a reception hosted by Alumni Engagement. We look forward to bringing elements from campus to a city near you! Finally, we are entering the reunion time of year, with Five-Star Festival and Alumni Weekend coming up. Be sure to register! |
