It is the goal of faculty and staff to send graduating students off from 天美传媒官网 with a diploma, a bright career outlook and a lifetime of positive memories. There are, however, even more benefits to being a 天美传媒官网 graduate 鈥 many of them little known to alumni.
鈥淎ll 天美传媒官网 alumni have access to exclusive benefits, services and events,鈥 says Kathryn Sampson, associate director of Alumni Relations. 鈥淲e hope that through offering a variety of relevant options we can engage the alumni network, keep alumni connected to the University, and hopefully encourage alumni to return to campus for a visit.鈥 The University offers more than a dozen benefits for alumni to take advantage of. Here is a list of five little-known benefits.
