Gathering interest

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Employing the premise that Eagles of a feather flock together, the Alumni Association has started special groups for alums interested in getting together with those with similar interests. So far, there are groups for Greek Life alums interested in keeping the bonds of fraternities and sororities strong; residential advisors who would like to swap stories and catch up with others who served as campus housing resident assistants; resort hospitality and management alums interested in networking with others involved in hospitality; and alumni who are now employed at FGCU. Interested in joining one of these or forming your own group? Contact Angela Kunkle at [email protected].

The Eagle Mentor Program creates bonds between professionals and students who are planning careers in those fields. Alumni can help students prepare for success, provide information and offer guidance, motivation and support. For more  information, contact Amanda Erwin at [email protected].
