As always, thank you for your continued support of the UNO Alumni Association. You make us #UNOPROUD!

Returning to New Orleans for the Holidays? Stop By UNO!
|
Many out-of-town alumni say when visiting New Orleans, they often drive or walk around campus and reminisce about their time as UNO students.
This holiday season, we invite you to stop by UNO’s Homer L. Hitt Alumni and Visitors Center (building with the brick smokestack) on Tuesday, December 27, from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. This is your chance to meet fellow out-of-town alumni, check out the updated Alumni Center lobby which tells the story of UNO’s history, get some UNO swag, and update your alumni information.
Drinks and light refreshments will be served.
