An Alumni Holiday Message
Dear Alumni -
It is the holiday season, which has me feeling reflective
and grateful. I am grateful to be a member of such a wonderful and
supportive alumni community. I see the passion and commitment you show to your
Alma Mater and I feel humbled to be representing you in my position as Assistant
Vice President of Alumni Relations for Seattle University.
This year my office has been in a continual transition which
has welcomed a transformation aimed at providing you and the SU community with
the best possible alumni experience. As
I reflect on this year, there are things we’ve improved and continue to do well
and areas in which we have an opportunity to improve. As this year comes to a close I can
confidently say that we are more committed than ever to deliver on our vision
of being a world class alumni relations office and presence for Seattle
University.
In response to direct feedback we have focused on four goals
that will create opportunities to engage our alumni and continue to build out a
rock solid foundation that will support Seattle U alumni bringing them together
with a lifelong community. Improving
our marketing and increasing outreach
to alumni has been a main focus along with understanding what great benefits and services are needed for our
alumni. We have worked consistently to
ensure we have a plan that will lead us to success and I encourage you to
please review our FY13summary strategic plan.
We will continue to grow and improve our efforts to connect
with our alumni, wherever they may be. As I mentioned earlier there
were so many accomplishments this year.
In the spirit of reflection, I would like to share with you our FY12 status report for
reaching our goals.
I thank you for your continued support of Seattle
University, and of my office. As always,
your thoughts and feedback are encouraged, as you represent the legacy of
Seattle University. If you have not yet
had an opportunity to attend one of our many offerings, I hope you’ll look at
our upcoming events and
join us, with your friends and family in supporting SU.
I look forward to working with each and everyone one of you
in the coming year.
May peace and love surround you and yours this holiday
season.
Sincerely,
Susan R. Vosper '90, '10
