Welcome
CS alumni!
I am pleased to welcome
you to the first edition of the SCS alumni e-Zine. I hope the e-Zine
will be an effective way to increased communication with SCS alumni.
The e-Zine will contain feature stories on groundbreaking research
and first-hand information about the School of Computer Science
alumni activities and services. Our ability to communicate directly
with you, our alumni, will be key to building a successful alumni
relations program. My goal is to produce an e-Zine that will keep
SCS alumni informed and encourage increased alumni involvement with
SCS and Carnegie Mellon.
Several new programs
and initiatives will begin to take shape as we work to build a stronger
and more active alumni community. These programs include a volunteer
network, mentorship program, network opportunities and career resources.
More will be written about these programs in the future. More alumni
events will be held around the country. Over the next year we will
also continue to expand and improve the SCS alumni website.
One way we've started
to build this community is through the formation of the SCS Young
Alumni Advisory Council (YAAC). The YAAC will help evaluate current
initiatives in the School as well as provide ideas and feedback
about new programs. To help SCS alumni reconnect with classmates,
we've created an SCS alumni directory. We also want to hear from
you! SCS alumnus Jonathan Betz encourages alumni to send in their
class notes. (see Call for Class Notes).
It will take time to
build the program, but with your help, I know we can create mutually
beneficial programs and services as well as support the continued
excellence of the School of Computer Science. I hope you enjoy reading
about the latest developments in the School of Computer Science.
I welcome any feedback
and suggestions concerning the SCS alumni relations program or alumni
e-Zine. Please send your suggestions by e-mail to tcarr@cs.cmu.edu.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes for a great
year!
Sincerely,
Tina M. Carr
