New Chapter Organized in Germany
  
Good news!
  
Bremen, Germany-Dixie Alumni Chapter is now organized and we are excited to have Yvonne Kruschel as our Chapter President.   "This is a great opportunity for all of us to stay in touch, help prospective students from  Bremen, who would like to study at Dixie, and to stay updated about Dixie's development as a university."
  
" For the first activity together, we planned a kick-off dinner in Bremen this year in the beginning of November and I would love for all of you to be there if possible.  We can share our amazing memories together and catch up."
  
We look forward to the opportunities this will bring to our Alumni!
