Dear Friend,
On behalf of all of us at Adelphi University, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for making September truly extraordinary! Our 24th annual President’s Gala and eighth annual Spirit Weekend were filled with laughter, nostalgia and meaningful connections.
From the elegance of the President’s Gala to an insightful lecture by Professor Sal Primeggia ’64, MA ’66, PhD, and the spirited All Alumni Brunch during Spirit Weekend, it was heartening to see so many of you come together to share stories and experiences. Your presence not only enriched these moments but also showcased the deep bonds that unite our alumni community.
Thank you for your ongoing support and commitment to Adelphi University. It is alumni like you who help us build a vibrant community, and we are deeply appreciative of the ways you contribute, whether through mentorship, volunteering or sharing your successes with current students.
As we look to the future, we are excited to keep the momentum going. Stay tuned for more events and opportunities to connect with us and your fellow alumni. If you have ideas or suggestions, we would love to hear from you.
Once again, whether you joined us for the President’s Gala, Spirit Weekend or supported us in other ways, we thank you for your continued connection to Adelphi University. We look forward to seeing you at future events and strengthening our Panther community together.
With Panther pride,
Megan Stewart
Director of Alumni Relations |
