The 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Alumni Association (DAA) has a new president and she鈥檚 pumped for Homecoming 2015.
With fall in the air and preparations for Homecoming on the home stretch, newly-minted DAA president Courtney Larkin is jumping in with both feet.
鈥淗omecoming is my first major event in my new role and from what I鈥檝e seen of the lineup, it promises to be an awesome weekend,鈥 she says. 鈥淚鈥檓 pumped to connect with as many alumni as possible and celebrate our 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 community.鈥
The role of president of the DAA is a natural fit for Larkin, former 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Student Union president (2008-09), award-winning peer mentor and Progress Club of Halifax/Cornwallis Young Woman of Distinction award recipient (2012). An elected member of the DAA board since 2010, she says of her volunteerism, 鈥渋t鈥檚 just what I do.鈥
Larkin has a clear list of goals for her two-year term as DAA president.
鈥淚 want to create an awareness that all alumni can stay engaged with each other and with students 鈥 no matter where they are.鈥 This involves adding more cities to the chapters program and identifying initiatives where Dal alumni can connect to their communities. 鈥淚 would also love to see each faculty embrace mentoring in its own unique way.鈥
Her greatest challenge will be trying to connect with as many of Dal鈥檚 125,000 alumni as she can. 鈥淚 may only have two years in this role, but I plan to stay involved. 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Homecoming weekend is a great place to start.鈥
Some of the events Larkin says she鈥檚 looking forward to most are the President鈥檚 Fun Run/Walk on Saturday, October 17th and the Concert on the Quad with Party Boots on Friday. 鈥淥ur new 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Alumni Halifax Chapter is also co-hosting an Alumni Lounge with Fusion Halifax right before the concert, complete with cash bar, appetizers and lively conversation.鈥
And for those looking to re-group with classmates from their Dal days, Faculties campus-wide are in party-mode. 鈥淔rom breakfasts and golf tournies to lectures and awards gatherings, opportunities to re-connect at Homecoming run the gamut,鈥 says Larkin.
