Dear Friend,
Our alumni community continues to inspire me. In recent weeks, I’ve had the pleasure of traveling across the country—connecting with Panthers at intimate gatherings and large celebrations alike. No matter the city, the pride, loyalty and enduring connection to Adelphi are unmistakable.
Looking ahead, 2026 promises to be an exciting year for our alumni network. From regional events and milestone reunions to signature programs and new opportunities for meaningful engagement, there is much to anticipate in the months ahead. We hope you’ll join us as we continue strengthening connections, celebrating your accomplishments and creating new memories together. See all our opportunities to be involved.
Thank you for the role you play in growing and enriching our community. Wherever the year takes us, I look forward to seeing you!

Adelphi... Ever After
In honor of Valentine’s Day and the many special connections we make at Adelphi, we proudly share the story of Laurie ’79 and Bob Palladino ’78.
They met in 1972 during a church production of Godspell and eventually found themselves on Adelphi’s campus. Their college years included classes on opposite ends of campus and schedules that rarely aligned, so their lunch dates became cherished moments.
Since marrying in 1979, Laurie and Bob have built successful careers, raised a family and are now retired, with grandchildren and new adventures ahead of them.
