Staying in Touch

The Alumni Association can help you stay in touch. Permanent data files are maintained for all alumni by the Office of Alumni and Parent Relations. Records are not released or sold for non-University projects, and access to this information is carefully controlled. If you wish to contact a classmate but do not have a current address, the Alumni Office will be happy to provide it for you. To help keep records current, please report all changes in address, marital status, births, deaths and employment status to the Office of Alumni  and Parent Relations. In addition to the standard means of communication, you can notify us of changes via our InfoCard. If you do not want your information to be released, please notify our office.

UE Magazine

UE alumni receive three issues of UE Magazine each year. The magazine contains feature articles on the University, faculty and alumni. It also contains a special Connections section, which covers alumni events and other services and programs for alumni. The Class Notes section of the magazine shares information on former classmates' careers, marriages, births and accomplishments. If you have information for the Class Notes section, be sure to send us your Alumni Newsgram located in the back of every issue of UE Magazine or submit your information through our InfoCard. [We make every effort to publish Class Notes in a timely manner; however, due to our publication schedule and deadlines, please note there may be at least one full magazine cycle before a submitted Class Note appears.]

Harlaxton Connections premiered in November 1998. Harlaxton alumni from UE and other institutions receive this newsletter once a year to stay informed of the latest happenings at Harlaxton College.

Alumni Directory

The printed Alumni Association Directory is a useful guide for keeping in touch with classmates and for networking with other alumni. It contains an alphabetical listing of alumni with address, employment and degree information. Alumni are also categorized by class year, geographical location and occupation.

THE NEW UE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION PRINT DIRECTORY PROJECT IS UNDERWAY NOW.
The next print version of the University of Evansville Alumni Directory will be published in 2008. Data collection/confirmation and order placement by phone has started now and will continue through the summer of 2007. UE has contracted with Publishing Concepts Inc. (PCI) of Dallas, Texas to produce a text version and a CD version.  PCI is the same company who produced the 2002 UE Alumni directory.  As package options, PCI is offering a Pride of Alumni Kit and companion airline ticket, along with the directories.
