Eager, enthusiastic and excited for Eastern! That's just how I feel after a little more than eight months as director of alumni relations at EMU. Since joining the alumni staff the first of the year, I have had the opportunity to meet and talk informally with literally hundreds of alumni, friends, students, par­ ents, faculty and staff of Eastern Michigan University. I inevitably come away from such conversations with two overwhelm­ ing impressions: first, members of the extended EMU family are proud of their institution and the quality of education offered here; and second, no one fails to remind me of the great potential for alumni· involvement at EMU. This second impression is a challenge to me and the alumni office team; the first onfirms in my mind that the challenge can e met.
