The Glendale Community College
Alumni Association is inviting all of its members to attend a homecoming
event on Saturday, November 11, 2006 before the final home football game
of the year. The event will be an indoor tailgate party in the lobby of
the San Rafael Building, with snacks and light beverages served between
5:45-6:45 p.m.
A theatre day
on Sunday, November 12 at 2
p.m. will offer alumni members the opportunity to see the student
production,
Waiting for Lefty. Alumni members can attend
both events at a discounted price by showing their membership card.
These events
are just a few that have taken place recently in an effort to broaden
the activities of the alumni group and to increase membership. Last
fall, a well-attended class
led by men’s athletic director Jim Sartoris, “Football 101,’’ was
sponsored by the alumni association as a way to help people understand
the basic nuances of the game.
The alumni
board of directors has gone to great lengths to extend the profile of
the group by expanding the
association’s website, offering
items for sale with the alumni logo, and sending out a newsletter
highlighting alumni and their activities. President Antonino
Patti has also spoken at many campus meetings and events since last
year, touting group activities and working to increase membership to
help fund scholarships for transfer students.
Students and
community members are recognized for their service to the college each
spring at the alumni banquet, held at the Oakmont Country Club. College
administrators, staff and dignitaries all support this very popular
event, where each award is presented by one of the association’s board
of directors.&
