Welcome to 2025, Privateers!
We would like to acknowledge those in our community affected by the tragic event that rocked our city on New Year’s morning. Our thoughts are with all the victims and their loved ones and the first responders who bravely took action to protect our community. If you would like to help, you can give blood at the UNO Donor Center on campus.
You've also likely seen recent news about UNO's current budget crisis. In late December, Nola.com published a staff editorial encouraging business and political leaders to rally around our beloved university. Read the editorial and be sure to spread the word. "What’s good for UNO is good for New Orleans, and by extension, all of Louisiana."
We are looking forward to connecting with you in 2025. Check out our upcoming events (right or below) or the Alumni Events Calendar online for more information. We hope to see you soon!
