Alumni Council

MESSAGE FROM THE SCI-ARC ALUMNI COUNCIL

I am thrilled to report the founding of the 2011-2012 SCI-Arc Alumni Council, SCI-Arc’s primary alumni volunteer group. With Dean Nota (B.Arch ’74) chairing, the Council includes members representing a wide variety of ages, degrees, professions and regions throughout the country and the world. The mission of the SCI-Arc Alumni Council is to foster alumni collaboration and communication between each other, the school and the students. Council members work to provide a collective voice for alumni and a strong link between SCI-Arc and the professional world beyond the school.

Segmented into focused Committees and working closely with the SCI-Arc Office of Development and Alumni Affairs, the Council achieves its mission by:

Helping facilitate intra-alumni communications and communications with SCI-Arc;
Aiding SCI-Arc students and alumni with their professional growth through networking and recruitment programs;
Acting as ambassadors for SCI-Arc in promoting a positive identity for the school and promoting standing of SCI-Arc in professional and academic circles;
Providing counsel to SCI-Arc leadership on alumni needs;
Helping recruit students for admission to SCI-Arc;
Encouraging alumni participation in SCI-Arc collaborations, exhibits, community outreach;
Ensuring the financial strength of SCI-Arc;
Hosting alumni networking and social events around the world.

Looking forward to your participation, I am.
