Congratulations to an incredible group of young men and women on your graduation from Wofford College! I am pleased that you have joined the ranks of some 16,000 plus alumni.

Wofford is a lifetime experience. My Wofford education and connections have afforded me a unique career in higher education, beyond any of my expectations, and I am thrilled to give back to the institution that started my journey. As president of the Alumni Association board, it is my mission to serve and engage alumni in a manner that honors the past, present and future of Wofford. We continue to focus on our four main initiatives: Alumni Engagement, The Wofford Network, Student Recruitment and Development.

During your time at Wofford, you have educated yourselves and others regarding important issues that impact our world. As you continue into this new part of your journey, the Alumni Association hopes that you take all of the knowledge and resources you gained as a student and engage in meaningful action to promote equity and peace in our society. As you journey, we encourage you to actively participate in your Wofford Alumni Association to help promote our alma mater and strengthen alumni engagement.

The steps to take as you become actively involved in the Alumni Association:

  • Activate your myWofford Alumni Portal (wofford.edu/alumni) so that you may stay up to date on all alumni happenings while staying connected with your classmates and the Wofford network.
  • Keep your information (email address, mailing address, life changes, additional education) up to date via the Alumni Portal.
  • Contact the Office of Alumni and Parents Programs for information on upcoming events in various areas and all the happenings around the college.
  • Use social networks to keep up with and share news and events. It’s a great way to stay in touch with other Wofford alumni.
  • Wofford Today, our alumni magazine, is also a great way to keep up with your fellow alumni and share your news.
  • Share your thoughts by contacting me at vsutton88@gmail.com . The board is always interested in hearing from you, and we sincerely appreciate your valuable input. It is your Alumni Association!
