A Message from Lee Serravillo
Executive Director, UAlbany Alumni Association
Are you ready for some football, food and fun?
The Great Dane Pre-Game is back!
It’s hard to believe that we’re just weeks away from UAlbany Homecoming! I’m excited to welcome the UAlbany alumni family to campus this fall as we continue the celebration of the University’s 175th Anniversary. On Oct. 19, alumni and friends, students and parents, faculty and staff, and Great Dane fans will gather for Homecoming festivities at Tom & Mary Casey Stadium. The Alumni Association is especially excited to welcome milestone reunion classes, including the Class of 1969, and numerous affinity groups, to their respective celebrations at the pregame. As always, we’ll have great food and entertainment for everyone prior to an exciting football matchup between our Great Danes and the Rhode Island Rams! Get your game-day package at alumni.albany.edu/homecoming19.
As the UAlbany Class of 2023 settled into campus in August, our admissions volunteers headed to college fairs to recruit Class of 2024 Great Danes all over the country. The Alumni Admissions Ambassador partnership with Undergraduate Admissions has created meaningful engagement opportunities for proud grads across the country, allowing UAlbany to be represented at more college fairs than ever before. If you’re interested in helping to advance UAlbany as an admissions ambassador, we’d love to hear from you! Sign up at alumni.albany.edu/admissions and join our team of volunteers.
I’d like to introduce Richelle Konian ’95, who began serving as president of the Alumni Association Board of Directors in May. Richelle has been involved with the University as an alumni volunteer and board member for several years, and is a past recipient of the Outstanding Young Alumni award. As CEO of NYC-based executive recruiting firm Careers On The Move, Richelle has a genuine passion for helping others succeed professionally and is especially dedicated to leading our efforts to grow UCAN, the UAlbany Career Advisory Network. Give or get advice through UCAN by visiting ualbany.firsthand.co.
Thank you, alumni family, for showing your UAlbany pride, giving back and supporting the University’s core priorities.
I hope to see you at the big game this Homecoming.
Go Great Danes!
