From the Alumni Association President

Goodbyes are never easy. They are made more bearable when you know that the farewell is not forever. When parting ways with Assumption after my time as an undergraduate, I was a bit afraid of what was to come and what life would be like beyond the warmth and familiarity of 500 Salisbury Street. I quickly learned that I would never lose my connection to Assumption, and I would always have a home at my alma mater.

Come June, I will end an additional chapter in my Assumption career when I conclude my time as president of the Alumni Association Board of Directors. Though my term in the role will soon be coming to a close, our goals to increase engage-ment with alumni and to continue to bring the mission of the College forward will continue.

This group of wonderfully dedicated alumni is truly inspiring. From supporting admissions efforts and helping to recruit the next generation of Assumption students, to welcoming new alumni and continuing to make connections, to hosting events in the community and encouraging alumni to attend events at Assumption’s beautiful campus – the Alumni Association Board of Directors bleeds blue.

Thank you for the honor and privilege of serving the Alumni Association at large in this capacity. I look forward to meeting more fellow Greyhounds, and I know that it is certainly not goodbye.
