UPEI Alumni chapter event in St. John's a great success
Last evening approximately forty UPEI alumni and friends gathered outside St. John’s for a Newfoundland and Labrador alumni chapter event.
Dr. Alaa Abd-El-Aziz, President and Vice-Chancellor, and Mr. Pat Sinnott, Chair of the UPEI Board of Governors, were on hand to greet guests at the Outer Cove home of Carolyn Dobbin Noseworthy, that overlooks Torbay. President Abd-El-Aziz also addressed the crowd and thanked chapter executive members Patricia Fowler and Justin Pater for their dedication to their alma mater.
There are currently more than 25,000 PWC (Prince of Wales College), SDU (Saint Dunstan's University), and UPEI graduates that span more than fifty countries around the world.
The Alumni and Friends chapter network is an important initiative to strengthen Panther Pride, and to nurture the bond between alumni and UPEI. If you would like to participate in chapter activities, or you are interested in launching a chapter in your area, please get in touch with the UPEI Alumni office by emailing alumni@upei.ca.
