Are you an REL BA or MA alum who wants to stay involved in the Dept…? Well, then contact our Chair, Prof. Ramey, to learn more about our Alum Advisory Board. For a modest annual contribution you can join and help to support the sorts of activities that you valued back when you hung around the lounge, took classes, gave out buttons, and beat the faculty during the annual Cup competition. Your support can even extend to mentoring a student who has an interest in the career that you’ve established for yourself. So contact us and see how you can get involved. And send us some news on how you’re doing too!
