Recommendation from the Community Engagement Task Force:
Build an alumni center that could serve as a community gathering location integrated with student life, yet sensitive to the needs of the alumni and broader community.
Additional explanation:
Ideally, the center would utilize a campus location with significance to a wide-array of alumni. The center would be a gathering place – as well as an “outreach and engagement center” – a place that would show students that alumni involvement is more than fundraising. It could be linked with the Community Service Center and/or a facility based in the Twin Cities.
This recommendation was placed in the Tangible Resources Strategic Framework Substantive Category using the language:
Build an alumni center that could serve as a community gathering location.
