About 70 people attended the fourth annual alumni breakfast in Boston Aug. 7.
In addition to catching up with old friends and meeting new UNC doctoral students, we celebrated accomplishments this year, including creating this blog and establishing our mentor program. We also heard about activities for the future including the March reunion event in Chapel Hill and fundraising for the School.
Associate dean for Graduate Studies Dr. Anne Johnston and Dean Jean Folkerts updated us on the many accomplishments of our students and Ph.D. program. Speed Hallman, associate dean for development and alumni affairs, discussed some of the ways Tarheels can financially give back to the School.
Thanks to all who attended and contributed to the event, including the School of Journalism and Mass Communication which funded the breakfast. We look forward to seeing you for next year’s breakfast at AEJMC in Denver!
