President’s Message Spring is the season of renewal. Conveniently, this marks the point where we re-launch our website, vcalumni.com. You may have noticed that our site has been down for the past few months... but We’re Back!! We’ve had a chance to fix a few things on the site and we are better positioned to develop new content, like a page for the VC Alumni Hall of Honour and the Emerald Achievements celebration, or maybe an on-line Alumni Business Directory. If you have any ideas, questions or comments, just contact us through the site.

As usual, this is the busiest time of year for us. Check the Upcoming Events listing and the registration ads in this issue and you can see there is a ton of stuff in the next few months offering something for everyone. I encourage you to sign up for one or a few of these events and have some fun. I’d especially encourage you to come out to the Emerald Achievements ceremony, April 28th. It’s an amazing chance to salute some of the best that this school has produced.

Last, I am pleased to announce a few new faces to the VCAA Board. Tom Crean ’74, Morgan Allen ’00, and Jordan Rogers ’01 have all recently jumped on board and I am sure their talents will enrich our Association. But, we can always use more help. If you’re curious, I invite you to contact us. It’s a great way to reconnect with the VC Community. Just a short note this time. More Later.
