In February and November 2007, members of the LAA had the opportunity to meet with students through networking night programs and help provide guidance on job searches and using the alumni network to gain contacts for their first job. These programs are among the most rewarding that I have ever participated in as a Rutgers alumnus. Another program is taking place on February 20, 2008, this time in conjunction with the Rutgers Student Activities Committee and with the support of our friends at the Rutgers Alumni Association's undergraduate committee and Rutgers Career Services staff.
If you are an alumnus interested in giving back to your alma mater but don't have the ability to give a financial donation or devote major hours to being a volunteer, this program is a great opportunity to spend just two hours in one evening and give students the value of what you have learned through the years about the job market and life after college.

Livingston College Graduation
A little-known fact: even though Livingston College is no longer in existence, a number of students who were freshmen, sophomore and juniors during the 2006-07 school year have indicated to Rutgers University staff that they would still like to have a diploma reading that they graduated from Livingston College. As a result, plans are in the works for a graduation ceremony in May 2008, where the Livingston Pride Award will be presented to a worthy Livingston College graduate.
Rutgers Reunon Weekend
Keep May 16-18, 2008 free for a great Rutgers reunion weekend! We will be holding the first-ever Family Day where alumni can bring their families for a picnic at Johnson Park in Piscataway and catch up with classmates from the past. We'll have great food and great times for all! This program is sponsored by the Livingston Alumni Association and is open to all Rutgers University alumni! Also in the plans: A Knights On Broadway cabaret night featuring Livingston Theatre Company members and a chance to participate in the traditional parade down College Avenue, and the LAA's Annual Meeting. Contact laaemail@alumni.rutgers.edu for more details!
