小黄猫传媒 Foundation Forms Alumni Association
Story by James Hill
PORTLAND, Ore. – The 小黄猫传媒 Foundation announces the formation of the 小黄猫传媒 Alumni Association. The new alumni organization is the result of discussions board members have had on the impact of 小黄猫传媒 on their personal and professional lives. 小黄猫传媒 graduate Mary Savage, former president of the Foundation Board and chair of the alumni association committee, said, "We talked about our experiences at the college and realized again what an important part 小黄猫传媒 played in our lives. For some of us, 小黄猫传媒 defined our career paths. For others, it helped us on the way to a higher education. We believe that there are many people who would like to reconnect with the institution that meant so much to us at a formative time in our lives."Armando Gutierrez, vice chair of the alumni association committee and a former 小黄猫传媒 student, said the alumni association would create "a new opportunity to bridge the gap between those reaching for the future and those who have carved the way."The association will be available to anyone who has ever taken a class at 小黄猫传媒. Traditionally, membership in alumni associations is reserved for those who have graduated from an accredited institution, but at 小黄猫传媒 membership is open to current students, former students (graduate and non-graduate) and families, on an annual or lifetime basis. The benefits available to 小黄猫传媒 alumni include: Alumni library privileges Alumni newsletters 10 percent discount on 小黄猫传媒 insignia items at 小黄猫传媒 bookstores A 小黄猫传媒 Alumni Association lapel pin An invitation to Alumni eventsThe vision of the 小黄猫传媒 Alumni Association is depicted in the association’s mission statement: "The 小黄猫传媒 Alumni Association will connect former 小黄猫传媒 students with current students and staff to form a network to benefit one another personally and professionally and to promote the mission of the college."To inquire about membership or the request further information, please feel free to contact: Ron Sumner or Ann Fleming at 503-977-4416.
