"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens ."
Ecclesiastes 3:1
|
 |
The fall season is a beautiful time of year with the changing colors. It is also a busy time with a lot of activity for our alumni and students. This past month, alumni were able to enjoy some social time with each other at the Mequon Nature Preserve and gain some insight at the "Entrepreneur in You" conference. There are plenty of upcoming activities for you to be involved with CUW -- from speakers and plays, to concerts and regional events.
October is also homecoming and you are invited to come for a variety of activities, including RA and campus ministry mini-reunions. Stay updated on all the news and programs by liking us on our Facebook
page or checking in on the new alumni
webpages. We also encourage your involvement with each other, the students, and faculty by creating a
CUWConnect profile. Make sure your profile is updated with current emails and employment.
We look forward to seeing you on campus and on CUW Connect,
Michelle "Mickie" Wagner '96
