As another year has come and gone, our SAA is continuously growing.  Some highlights from this year’s events included the Week of Welcome Scavenger Hunt, Homecoming, Ignite Fundraising Competition, Networking Nights, CASE ASAP District Conference, Pinning Ceremony, OOzeball, and even lunch with President Susan Herbst. Not only have we expanded and improved events already, but have implemented new ideas too allowing more students to understand what the Student Alumni Association is, and continuing to keep tradition alive on our campus.

We had four graduating seniors this year- Kelly, Austin, Emily and Riley, and they will truly be missed.  They showed so much passion for our club, and allowed it to flourish.  Looking forward to the next year, I am excited for some new ideas in store.  We are adding Day Chair positions as additional leadership roles for general members, and it will be the 35th OOzeball tournament in April of 2018, so we hope to add a fun twist because of this milestone. I cannot wait to see where this next year of SAA takes all of our members!
