Alumni Family Weekend and ASN Induction Recap
The Tradition Continues
The tradition continued as families from near and far brightened Fairfield’s campus during Alumni & Family Weekend held Oct. 24-26. Parents, families and alumni were welcomed with gorgeous weather and embraced the true community atmosphere that our campus offers. Alumni relished in nostalgic memories of their time at 天美传媒视频无限制观看 when they were undergraduate students.
Kamala Kiem, director of Student Programs & Leadership Development reports, “Attendance was very strong at many of our events! There were 4,330 tickets/reservations made ahead of time, 663 attendees registered online for an event, and we had waiting lists for the comedian and Glee Club events! True community atmosphere, some families were returning tickets they plan to not use since they knew there was a waiting list.”
