TEA PARTY FOR FINALISTS

Staff and students talk over a table full of cakes and teacups
Alumni relations staff discuss the Alumni Association with students

Friday 28th November 2003

On Wednesday 19th November the Publicity Team headed by Anne Matsuoka (Alumni Relations Officer) hosted an Alumni Association tea party in the Refectory.

The team, armed with a variety of delicious cakes, talked to the December leavers about the benefits of registering on AlumNet (the purpose-built website for our alumni) and staying in contact with the University. The students were rewarded for coming along with a slice of cake and great conversation!

AlumNet is currently being redesigned to include new information for our alumni which will help them to get to know each other as both business and social contacts. It is hoped it will be of great benefit to current students, who are about to be come alumni, and alumni alike. The Alumni relations team are working very hard to ensure that none of our students miss out on the benefits of being an alumnus of the University by getting to know as many students as possible before they leave.

The tea party was a huge success and informative both to the students who attended and to the team. It is proposed that this event will take place twice a year to encourage students to stay in touch with the University after leaving and to ensure that the Buckingham Experience is not forgotten. We wish all our leavers well in their future endeavours as they pursue careers in various professional fields and countries.
