This is a wonderful time of year for alumni to come back and visit campus. Connect with the Office of Alumni Relations, take a tour, and visit the Bookstore to get your Raider gear. We want to know all the amazing things you have accomplished since graduation, so be sure to update your information.

As we begin awarding scholarships this spring we want to thank the many generous donors who make these awards possible. Without your support many of our students would not be able to attend school. Each gift has amazing impact. Thank you!
