after college//ALUMNI bOARd PREsIdENT’s LETTER ALUMNI EvENTs TExT//VARIOUS IMAGES//VARIOUS Dear Fellow Graduate, Coming from the all-consuming world of financial services, I know how challenging it can be to stay connected to the important people and places of our pasts. As a double-degree graduate (B.A. ’93, J.D. ’96) my Suffolk affiliation has always meant a great deal to me. I knew I wanted to maintain a strong connection. I just wasn’t always sure of the easiest way to do it in such a large, diverse institution with so much going on. As Alumni Board President for 2006-2007, my priority has been to make all the Alumni Association has to offer accessible to busy professionals like you and me. For me, planning is key. So, my colleagues on the board and I developed a calendar of Alumni Association events designed to be relevant, thoughtprovoking, and just plain fun. Just one example that fits all three categories was the 10th Annual Department of Communication and Journalism Alumni & Awards Ceremony in March. The evening honored Alumnus of the Year Shawn Middleton ’90, MA ’91, Director of Public Affairs at Vinfen Corporation, and Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Natalie Jacobson, WCVB-TV’s Emmy-winning anchor and reporter. For alumni who would like to become further involved, we’ve made volunteering easier than ever. Whether you serve as an ambassador for our admissions program, provide assistance with career programming, or invest your time as an alumni representative for the board, your participation will be greatly valued. Our goal is to make every interaction with your university, your college and your alumni association a worthwhile and “user friendly” one. To know if we are succeeding, I ask for your feedback. Thank you for your support. Best, CJN alumni reception and awards Ceremony March 25, 2007 A special Centennial CJN Alumni Awards Reception and Awards Ceremony took place in March, including a cocktail reception, awards presentation, networking and dessert. This year, CJN presented the Lifetime Achievement Award to Natalie Jacobson, WCVB-TV NewsCenter 5, Emmy Award-winning news anchor and reporter, and the Alumnus of the Year Award to Shawn Middleton, BA’90, MA’01, director of public affairs, Vinfen Corporation.
