A new tradition is percolating on NC campuses.
Alumni Relations welcomed about 100 NC alumni employees to meet and mingle at two recent coffee hour events, which were held at the Welland and Daniel J. Patterson campuses in March.
“The passion and commitment for NC was evident at both events,” said Vice President, Advancement, Gord Arbeau. “Alumni employed by the College are doubly connected to NC and we are excited to host many more opportunities for them to stay connected and involved.”
Following the success of the College’s inaugural coffee hour events, NC’s alumni employees can look forward to more upcoming events – including an outdoor, on-campus event – during the months ahead.
“Our inaugural employee Alumni Coffee Hour events were a great success and, on behalf of Alumni Relations, I would like to thank all NC alumni employees who took the time to attend.” said Jana Boniferro, Interim Manager, Development & Alumni Relations. “It was wonderful to see colleagues coming together.”
