President's Message July 2025Our annual conference is almost here – have you registered yet? Early bird registration ends on July 1st! I started working in Alumni Career Services in March of 2013 and attended my first ACSN conference that year, which was held at the University of Miami. I have only missed two conferences since then and made sure to catch up on what I missed both times because I have never left a conference without having learned something new – or without meeting someone new, actually…. The best memory I have from ACSN was the first conference we had in person after the covid crisis. During that conference I both reconnected with old friends and met some incredible new people, with whom I have enjoyed working ever since. Honestly, it was very healing, because it reminded me that ACSN is filled with people who truly understand, appreciate and value building meaningful connections and helping others reach their full potential. Being together is reinvigorating, enlightening, and, of course, FUN! If you are on the fence about whether to attend or not – attend. Join us. You will not regret it. Here is a little musical motivation for you to come connect with your ACSN colleagues! |
