We’re closing in on the Tenth Graduating Class for the Cook Honors College, and we think this landmark is the perfect opportunity to build connections between our alumni and the students currently creating new memories in Whitmyre Hall. While this group’s primary purpose was to announce our April event (more details are available in the events section at the bottom right of this page), we want this to be a tool that continues connecting people for the years to come.
Careers are changing, families are growing, and new opportunities are being created every day. We hope this helps you to keep in touch and perhaps promote jobs, internships, etc., with alumni and current students.
We hope you can join us in April for the Celebration! PLEASE update your information with us, even if you cannot make it, by visiting here: http://old.www.iup.edu/honors/Alumni/Update/Index.html.
To learn more about the April Alumni event and connect with your friends, classmates, and faculty of the HC, please visit us on our Facebook Group - Robert E. Cook Honors College Tenth Class Celebration. Post pictures, comments, and anything else you think your fellow alums will appreciate.
