As we all know, the University of Rochester is a special place, and alumni near and far have memories of a favorite study nook in the stacks of Rush Rhees, an empty Kilbourn Hall before a recital, first dorm rooms, and other spaces that transport us back to our time beside the Genesee. More than the places, though, it's the people—students, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends—who make our University truly shine.
Though we’re geographically far from Rochester, the Yellowjacket connection has stayed with us, and we’re proud to continue building relationships with the University of Rochester community here in New England. Recently, we hosted an alumni panel discussion on the fascinating world of artificial intelligence at DataRobot, Inc., a Fraternity and Sorority Alumni Social for Boston-area brothers and sisters, and rang in 2019 with a celebration at the Boston Public Library featuring alumni musical performances and more than 125 attendees.
If you weren't able to make it, don't worry! From a robust calendar of events and activities, to networking and mentorship opportunities on The Meliora Collective, we invite you to make a resolution and join us in staying connected, learning something new, and letting your UR pride shine throughout the year.
If you’re interested in getting involved as a volunteer to help plan or host events, serve as a career mentor, and more, please contact Boston's staff liaison, Elizabeth Hernandez at elizabeth.hernandez@rochester.edu.
Wishing you an Ever Better 2019!
Meliora,
