Office of Alumni & Public Relations

We've moved! The new home of the alumni office is in the Youngsma Center (named for Sydney Youngsma) on the east side of campus just north of the Ecosystem Preserve. You can reach the building from the main campus via the student parking lot near the nature preserve, or from a separate exit off the East Beltline.
