Dear Alumni & Friends:
Welcome to the September/October 2009 edition of The Village. We heard from many of our alumni and what an impressive group! You are doing important work and we are proud of your many accomplishments.
This year we are paying special attention to the department's role in K-12 and community outreach. As we move forward, the department is continually examining ways to engage our alumni and friends. Therefore an important part of my role involves cultivating an even stronger relationship with you.
Throughout the year the department will call on you to: share with high school students how you are putting your degree to use, mentor college or high school students, or participate in upcoming events sponsored by the department. Your willingness to volunteer will provide current and future students with a fuller picture of what one does with a degree or minor in African American & African Studies.
Thank you for your support, generosity and confidence.
