Title: Leveraging the Alumni Association – Now and as Alumni 
Speaker: Vallee Donovan, Georgia Tech Alumni Association Senior Vice President and Chief of Staff
Date: Monday, March 3, 2025
Time: 12:30 p.m.-1:20 p.m.

Abstract: The Georgia Tech Alumni Association builds an enduring community with all alumni standing in proud support of Georgia Tech and each other. Like any good community, that means we work together to solve problems and provide opportunities to enhance everyone who is a part of it. Students will learn how they can connect with alumni to enhance their educational path by finding a mentor or job shadowing. The Alumni Association also provides valuable leadership development opportunities through volunteering that build the executive functioning skills needed to succeed post-graduation. Those opportunities to network, connect, learn, and engage don’t stop at graduation – we offer experiences for our alumni to continue to learn, grow, and give back. Learn how staying connected as a graduate can help you find your next job, upskill to get ahead, and make lifelong connections. And we sure do have a lot of fun!
