@VJC Alumni e-newsletter Spetember 2007

@VJC, the alumni e-newsletter, will be sent to your mailbox every month to keep you informed about the exciting developments taking place in VJC. Success stories of our students and alumni will be shared and relevant information provided to help you stay connected to VJC.

No lengthy write-ups, just the gist to keep you in touch!

Each month you can expect stories about:

• Research being conducted and its impact • College members (staff and students) who are making VJC a great place to study • Innovative developments in the college • Alumni who have created a niche for themselves • Students who are making the most of their academic experiences • Alumni services and events that can benefit your personal and professional life • You can also win prizes by participating in the monthly trivia contest or sharing your memories of your time at VJC through the "Great VJ Memories" or "VJ Love Stories" features.

Let us tell your story — send us your tales of success and achievement. We hope to profile an alumnus in @VJC each month. Submit your story of accomplishment.

VJ love stories — Share your tales of your VJ love, your favourite hangout in college!

VJ concert memories — Many performing artists have graced the stage of VJC throughout the years and we hope to highlight some concert memories which you can contribute. Take a trip down memory lane.
