At the University at Albany, our goal is to put "The World Within Reach:' Through coursework, research, internships, volunteer opportunities and campus life, our students' worldview is expanded. They have been surrounded by faculty whose research and scholarship are addressing today's most important issues. They have been part of a campus community enriched by a diversity of cultures and ideas.
Our graduates took advantage of these opportunities and applied themselves with dedication and commitment. They have grown personally and intellectually. We are all very proud of them. Among this class are our future business leaders, health professionals, scientists, teachers, social workers and policymakers. They join the ranks of the University's m:ore than 147,000 alumni who are making a difference both dose to home and around the globe.

I want you to know that help is available and the UAlbany Alumni Association stands ready to assist you. At the same time, I want to issue a challenge to you to stay connected to UAlbany, because I have found in life you often get out of an experience what you put into it. So, I ask you to stay connected because it will help you in your career and because it will help build a stronger UAlbany, too. Here are a few ways your Alumni Association can help you on your way. __ ,~ I encourage you to log onto www.albany.edu/alunmi to access the alumni career center. I also invite you to join om Facebook group and get Linkedin to expand your professional network, taking advantage of the adage-it's not just what you know, but who you know. Your fellow young alumni have formed a group called GOLD (Graduates Of the Last Decade), which meets professionally and socially throughout the year. Please be on the lookout for future Gold Reunion events. On behalf the University at Albany Alumni Association, it is a pleasure and a privilege to welcome you into the University at Albany alumni community. Congratulations and best wishes in all that you do. With warm regards and yours in UAlbany; William J. McCann Jr., Esq.

ALMA MATER College of the Empire State I I Mother of an army great, Thou the molder of our fate, Thee we sing today. Thine the hand we clasp so strong, Holding tho' the years be long, Thou the burden of our song, Thee we sing today. Ways of pleasantness are thine, Leading where in wisdom's shrine, Joy and cheer, and hope divine, Ever dwell for aye. Thine the voice whose call we hear, Thine the hand which holds us near, Thine the heart, so true, so dear, Cherished, loved alway. Wisdom's duty heeds thy call, Ever in Minerva's thrall, Pass the torch from one to all, Guide each destiny. 'Neath the Purple and the Gold, Let thy history unfold, Sons and daughters, young and old, Hail to Albany.
