Hello fellow alumni!❄️

'Tis the season for our annual holiday party. With how busy things have been, and we are sure many of you can relate, we are looking at a January date for our next alumni and friends gathering.

Any ideas of theme, location etc are encouraged and appreciated! ***We will have the Filling Station (usual location) on hold in the meantime and are planning on a potential special speaker for the event!

If anyone would like to gather for a holiday happy hour before the holidays, let us know! Donald and I would be happy to whip something casual up.

An early happy holidays to you all!
-Rachel '16 and Donald Straughen '15

Posted from the Michigan Tech Alumni Network page! Who’s submitting an entry with all of this snow we are getting!? ❄️❄️❄️

Greetings Alumni!

It's hard to imagine, but there are less than 30 days until the 2024 Winter Carnival All Nighter! Which, can only mean that it is time to kick off the 4th Annual Alumni "Snow" Statue Contest! This year's contest has been streamlined to only two categories - "Snow" and "No Snow". Easy enough, right? So grab your fellow alums, friends, children, clubs, etc. and have some fun remotely participating in one of Tech's most time honored traditions!

Deadline for entries is midnight on February 4, 2024. Judging will be "Alumni Choice" via the most "Likes" in this FB group from February 5-7. The Top Three winners in each category will receive fabulous MTU Swag, with results published the weekend of Winter Carnival. Click the following link or scan the QR code for contest rules, instructions and Entry Forms. Happy Statue Building!
