This past June, the 75,000th graduate walked across the convocation stage<\/a>, a significant number for Brock Alumni Relations<\/a>.\u00a0 “Almost everywhere you go, you can identify a Brock graduate,” said Christine Jones, alumni relations director. “This milestone means Brock is being represented out there with alums all over the world.”<\/p>\n

Despite your physical distance from the University once you graduate, it’s easy to stay connected with Brock and your peers through Alumni Networks<\/a>!<\/p>\n

There are multiple Networks throughout Canada, each hosting at least one event a year.\u00a0 Each network has a dedicated group of alumni volunteers that plan, organize and execute these events that connect grads through social, professional development and networking opportunities.<\/p>\n
