It’s that time of the year again! Just a week ago, the UMBC alumni community welcomed its newest members and celebrated with them as they (finally!) walked across that stage to open the next chapter of their lives. Congratulations to all of the graduates in the class of 2015!

Throughout the spring, the Alumni Association and the Chapter of Black and Latino Alumni has hosted events to celebrate our new grads’ achievements. May Grads Day, hosted by the Alumni Association, treated our newest grads to an afternoon of food and fun. It was a chance for students to put down their books and relax as they prepared for their upcoming graduation and celebrated with their fellow Retrievers.

The Chapter of Black and Latino Alumni also recently celebrated our newest alums at their Senior Reception. Our seniors dressed up and displayed their Retriever pride with a luncheon filled with speakers who shared their UMBC stories and guidance.

We’re so thrilled to have such a wonderful new group of Retrievers in the Alumni Association, and we hope to see you back on campus soon!
