We hosted a food drive here on campus to support the SMU Community Food Room. A number of departments participated and we were able to fill the shelves to overflowing.
In June we hosted alumni receptions in both Vancouver and Calgary. Our Enactus team competed at the Nationals in Vancouver and took home the 3M Canada Award. We had so much fun reconnecting with our Calgary alumni that we will be back in November!
The sun was shining as we enjoyed a lovely BBQ at the Oaks with SMU staff and faculty.
The Tall Ships arrived in Halifax this summer and we were lucky to have a VIP reception on the Alexander von Humboldt II.
The maritime spirit was strong at Atlantic University Pub Night in Ottawa. We had a great turnout this year and even came close to taking home the banner for best attendance! This annual event is a chance for our Alumni to meet other people living in Ottawa who studied in the Maritimes.
Our newest alumni and their families spent a beautiful May evening sailing the Halifax Harbour as part of our Grad week activities. More than 900 new graduates joined our Alumni Family at Convocations last Spring.
Our Alumni Honour Guard marched in the academic procession in front of the Spring and Fall graduates as a way to welcome them into our Alumni family. If you’d like to volunteer, we have convocations in January, May and September. Email alumni@smu.ca to join our Honour Guard.
We had a lovely evening with EMBA Alumni celebrating 25 years of the EMBA program at Saint Mary’s. Five alumni were honoured with EMBA Alumni Impact Awards and Dr. J. Colin Dodds was awarded the Faculty Impact Award. Pictured are members of the Class of 1992.
The Alumni Office hosted a brunch on campus for graduates and their supporters. It was a great opportunity for graduates to recognize their supporters and give thanks.
These alumni celebrated their 50-year graduation from Saint Mary’s at our Golden Grad Mass and Luncheon during Homecoming 2016. Class of 1967 - we will be celebrating your 50-year reunion at Homecoming 2017 from October 12th -15th! Watch for your invitation.
