Young alumni board and blog forge connections with recent alumni

Photo looking down at a conference table and chairs labeled "Young Alumni Board"A little more than a year ago, the college leadership team brought together a group of accomplished and passionate alumni to form the college’s Young Alumni Advisory Board—a group dedicated to deepening the college’s engagement with its young alumni community through targeted initiatives.

One of the first such initiatives was launching Alumni Unscripted, a blog that centers on the perspectives and experiences of recent alumni and seeks to be a resource for alums to connect to topics of interest and the college.

“Too many graduates believe their college experience is over once they graduate— we’re flipping that script,” says Ryan Blanck, B.B.A.’02, founder of Deviate and chair of the college’s Young Alumni Advisory Board. “The board advises the college how to keep recent graduates involved and connected. Continuous education is one of our priorities, and we believe this blog is an excellent tool to provide meaningful insight—all while keeping the alumni connection to the college relevant and growing.”
