What We Do

Alumni Engagement: The Office of Alumni Relations makes a special effort to strengthen its relationship with all the alumni of Lincoln University. Our strategies for engagement include:

  • Two issues per year of the Alumni Newsletter
  • An updated Alumni Directory every 5 years
  • Segmented and affinity-based email blasts
  • Receptions, mixers, and other Alumni events

Our engagement also includes providing support for organized Alumni Chapters. In addition, we plan and organize on-campus events in conjunction with alumni volunteers for both Homecoming and Reunion activities and other traditional events held on campus. We also provide an open line of communication through our social media platforms for alumni to connect and reconnect.

Reunion Activities: We work closely with Class Agents to plan Class Reunions. Our office provides assistance by securing space for meetings; providing lists and labels; preparing and sending class mailings, developing special brochures, ordering academic regalia (50th Anniversary Emeritus Class), providing gifts (50th Anniversary Emeritus Class), and meeting with Class Agents regularly.

Events: We sponsor a number of special events, held on or off-campus, to bring alumni together. These include:

  • Annual Alumni Awards/Class Banquets, held during Homecoming
  • Alumni Family Outing
  • Lion Awards
  • CIAA Basketball Tournament Activities
  • Honda Battle of the Bands
  • An annual memorial service for deceased alumni—“Fallen Lions, gone but not forgotten”—will be a staple in our efforts going forward.

Alumni Recognition: We recognize the accomplishments of our alumni during our annual Alumni Awards and Recognition Banquet. Awards include:

  • Alumni Medal of Distinction
  • Alumni Service Award
  • Outstanding Young Alumni
  • Public Service and Professional Achievement Awards

We also recognize those classes with the highest giving and participation.

Student Engagement: The Office of Alumni Relations works closely with students in an opportunity to develop a relationship that will hopefully continue after graduation. Our office serves as the advisor to the Pre-Alumni Council and has students volunteer at alumni events.

We provide each graduate with a gift and educate them on the alumni association and their ongoing commitment to Lincoln University.
