FACS Alumni
As a proud member of the FACS alumni community, you play an integral role in shaping the future of our college and its students. Being and staying involved as a FACS alumnus is not just about reminiscing about the past; it's about contributing to the vibrant and dynamic future of our institution. Your continued engagement can have a profound impact in several key areas:
Providing
Your financial support helps open doors for the next generation of students. Scholarships funded by alumni like you provide essential resources that enable talented and deserving students to pursue their education without the burden of financial stress. By contributing to scholarship funds, you are directly investing in the potential and success of future leaders, innovators, and professionals who will continue the legacy of excellence at FACS.
Participating
Staying connected through local and regional events fosters a sense of community and belonging among FACS alumni. These events provide opportunities to network, share experiences, and collaborate with fellow alumni, current students, and faculty members. Whether it's attending a regional meetup, speaking to a class, or joining a college-hosted event, your involvement strengthens the bonds within our alumni network and enhances the overall FACS experience for everyone.
Additionally, the FACS Alumni values connecting with our alumni in their place of work and community. Remember your college if your business could benefit from a student intern.
