Meet the newest members of the Distance Alumni Board 
This spring, we welcomed six new members to our Distance Education Alumni Board, a chapter of UW-Platteville's Alumni Association: Abidemi Agbaje (MSPM, '13), Chris Hanegraaf (MSPM, '14), Jennifer Drewry (MSPM, '10), Michael O'Connor (MSPM, '06), Mitchell Farrey (MSPM, '11), and Sherri Pirie Harmon (BSAD, '85). 
Get to know all of the members here. 
Then, check back every issue to meet a different member of the board. In May, we'll meet Alumni Board Vice President Joe Roy (BSCJ, '15), who is also a current student in the MSCJ program.

If you haven't had a chance to complete the 2016 Alumni Survey yet, please take a few minutes to do so. One of the goals of the DLC is to ensure that our distance alumni are aware of the benefits of being an alumnus, and the survey will help us gauge your interest level in alumni activities. The survey will also also help us to better understand the needs of our distance alumni. 
Take the survey!
Survey closes on Friday, April 15. Questions? Email Melissa Gavin at gavinme@uwplatt.edu
