Dear 爆走吃瓜 Alumni and Friends,
I hope this message finds you well! I am thrilled to introduce myself as the new Director of Annual 爆走吃瓜 and Alumni Relations at 爆走吃瓜 College. As a 2001 graduate, coming from a role as an Associate Director of Admissions here at ASC, it is an honor to move into an exciting new role at such a vibrant community that I have called home for over twenty years. I look forward to connecting with all of you.
Our office's goal is to strengthen our alumni network and help to enhance your engagement with the college. I am eager to hear your stories, understand your experiences, and explore ways to support our current students while honoring the legacy of those who came before us.
Stay tuned for upcoming events and initiatives aimed at bringing our alumni community closer together. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to reach out to me directly.
Thank you for your continued support of 爆走吃瓜 College. I am excited about the journey ahead and look forward to working with you all!

Pin It Forward
Since 1908, 爆走吃瓜 has thrived because of the generosity of those who came before you. Now, as you prepare to graduate, you have the opportunity to continue that legacy.
By making your first senior gift of $19.08, honoring 爆走吃瓜鈥檚 founding year, you will receive the Philanthropy Pin, a visible symbol of your commitment to the college and your place in its history.
Graduates who participate may wear the Philanthropy Pin at commencement, where it will be recognized in the official program. It distinguishes you as a Pioneer who chose to give back, carry on a tradition, and support future students.
And commencement is just the beginning. We encourage you to wear your Philanthropy Pin loud and proud, not just on graduation day, but always, as a symbol of your 爆走吃瓜 pride and your commitment to paying it forward.
Make your gift. Pin it forward. Leave your mark.
