Adelphi’s new spring semester began this week, and some great opportunities to engage with the Adelphi community are in store. We're especially excited for our sixth annual Women's Leadership Conferenceon March 25, featuring top industry leaders and thought-provoking discussions.
Join us for stimulating conversations with fellow alums -- like Sprinting Toward Success with Olympians June Griffith Collison ’81, MBA ’84, and Dennis Collison ’80, or An Evening with Puja Shah ’03 whose debut novel, For My Sister, is winning critical acclaim. We’re also counting down the days to Giving Day in April, but you can support our future students via the Adelphi Fund any day.
Coming soon, we’ll share with you an online survey. Through this tool, you’ll be able to provide the University with insight into your alumni experience, perceptions, wants and needs.
Please join us in congratulating the 352 graduates who earned their Adelphi degrees this past December. They hail from 15 countries and 12 U.S. states, and we welcome them to our powerful, passionate and influential pride of 119,000 alumni Panthers around the world.
We hope you’re staying connected with one another on Alumnifire and through Adelphi’s regional alumni chapters. If you don’t have a chapter near you, you can reach out to us to get one started.
