Connections magazine now available

Hot off the press: Connections magazine captures how Nazareth students and alumni are using their education as changemakers to have meaningful impacts on their communities.

Nazareth Annual Fund

Every gift ensures that a Nazareth education remains accessible and affordable to a new generation of Golden Flyers. Alumni giving is valued all year — but as we near the end of our fiscal year on June 30, your gift now would mean so much to Nazareth.

Alumni Opportunities

Nazareth University diplomas

Alumni who graduated before June 1, 2023, may request a Nazareth University diploma, signed by Nazareth University's president and provost. Alumni requests for reprints will be free, compliments of Nazareth's Alumni Engagement office, for one year, until May 31, 2024.

Reimagining the campus stables

Most know the small barn that served as home to the horses lovingly cared for by Srs. Margaret Mary and Sienna until the last horse passed away about a year ago. Unfortunately, the stables’ structure has become increasingly compromised and was determined to be structurally unsound and unsafe. Sadly, the stables must come down. While bittersweet, the promising outcome is the opportunity to both honor the original use of this space and reimagine it for the next 100 years. Be on the lookout for ways to share your creative ideas!
