Alumni & Friends

About Us

As you may have noticed during your time as a COM major, alumni play a very important role in our degree program. COM alumni help keep us strong and make our program even better.

COM Alumni & Friends

We don't just need recent graduates to dig in and help, we need folks who have been out in the marketplace building careers for a long time and engaged in everything from graduate school to home-based businesses and all points in between.  

Alumni who can come back and guest lecture, be a part of COM Studies Week, offer to be an internship supervisor, be available for career conversations with students, mock interviews-or real ones, can greatly enrich our program in ways that we as faculty simply cannot do. 

Keep in Touch and We Will, Too

We want to hear from you! The relationships that began here are important to us and we want to know how you are doing. We would also like the ability to invite you back for some of our events, not only student events but other opportunities for you to network with your peers.  We have just a few simple requests: 

  1. Update your contact information with the Alumni Office,  
  2. Follow us through our social media: Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X/Twitter, Email
  3. Share with us how you’d like to help. Your time and your financial support can have a great impact on our current students.   
  4. Give now!

Thank you in advance for considering these opportunities.
