Alumni Association

Share your time and expertise

We count on alumni to provide meaningful service to USI. Here are ways you can be a part of what happens at the University.

Chefs for the annual Alumni Picnic held in June were (from left) Keith Moore ’74, Steve Farrell ’73, Donna Mesker ’86, Gerald Montgomery ’83, and (front) Logan Montgomery, son of Kendra ’88 and Gerald.

The chefs, who have cooked for several years, named themselves the “Grill’n Grads”.

Career Mentor Program
Twenty juniors or seniors network during spring semester with a graduate in their field of study. The activities for mentors and
their students may include job shadowing, professional group meetings, introductions to other professionals in a career field, assistance with preparing resumes, and mock job interview. Signup to be a Career Program Volunteer.

Day on the Job
Students spend a day with a professional selected from a list of alumni volunteers. Students gain valuable career information and expand their career networks by observing alumni on the job. Signup to be a Career Program Volunteer.

Of course, many benefits are intangible. As a USI alumnus, you have many opportunities to network with other professionals, increase your community involvement, and maintain friendships with former classmates.
