The Indiana University East Alumni Association invites alumni to attend ReConnect 2013 from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 27, in Springwood Hall.

Alumni will learn about the IU East campus today, meet students, and catch up with professors and classmates.

The program includes “IU East 2013 – Our Campus Today”and a tour of the campus led by Student Ambassadors. Alumni will learn about new academic programs, including graduate programs. Participates will hear about Alumni Legacy Scholarship programs and meet with some long-time faculty members.

Alumni can also connect IU East students with their workplace through internships and other creative experiential learning opportunities.

The program concludes with lunch and a student panel for alumni and students to have further interaction and discussion.

Attendees will also receive an IU East t-shirt and other IU East items, as well as door prizes.
