Testimonials
“Even though I am a recent graduate of the University of Illinois, being part of the alumni association membership has enriched my sense of belonging to the alumni community by keeping me connected. After my graduation in May 2024, I moved to North Carolina for my first full time job. While I was eager and excited to see something new, I am also an Illinois native so I was moving away from everything I knew. After being so involved with the university during my undergrad, I wanted an opportunity to stay connected, so I was thrilled to be offered the opportunity to be a part of the Alumni Association Membership Committee. Though I am just starting my tenure with the Board and my life as an alum of the University of Illinois, the alumni association membership has made me feel part of the Illinois family even though I am not physically in Illinois.“
