UND ALUMNI ASSOCIATION AND UND FOUNDATION
J. Lloyd Stone Alumni Center
Strinden Center
Phone (701) 777-2611 or (800) 543-8764
UND alumni are a proud group of graduates
and friends totaling over 109,000 strong.
Involvement with the University through time,
talent and resources has provided a tremendous
margin of excellence and helped position
UND as one of the top schools in the nation.
The Alumni Association and Foundation are
two private, non-profit organizations which
exist under a mission to retain and strengthen
friendships made on campus by keeping graduates
and former students in lifelong contact with
each other; to keep alumni informed of happenings
at the University of North Dakota; and to
involve graduates, former students and special
friends in the ongoing growth and development
of UND. This mission is accomplished through
alumni relations and development initiatives
involving reunions and fundraising programs
to suit the interests of our varied alumni
and serve the needs of the University.
While separate organizations, the Alumni
Association and Foundation are overseen by
one board of directors and led by one executive
vice president. This unique structure has,
since 1978, facilitated over $180 million
to the University for the benefit of students,
faculty and staff.
Alumni relations programs and activities
are hosted around the United States as UND
alumni live in all 50 states and in many
countries around the world. Reunions, satellite
parties, golf events, and other social activities
are planned throughout the year as a way
for alumni and friends to retain connections
with each other and their alma mater. On-campus
events, lectureships, mentoring programs
and Homecoming are other opportunities for
involvement. In 1981 Telesis, our student
alumni association, was established to involve
students in alumni activities and to give
current students contact with outstanding
alumni achievers.
Fundraising efforts revolve around current
and ongoing needs at UND. The Annual Drive
Fund supports regularly occurring expenses
on campus. Campaigns are held at various
times to reach the technology, facility,
scholarship, and faculty goals of colleges
or departments. Scholarships are initiated,
supported and maintained through the Foundation.
In fact, there are over 700 named endowments
which finance student and faculty scholarships.
The Foundation Call Center relies on student
fundraisers to initiate contact with alumni
for updates on campus, personal record information
and as an opportunity for alumni to make
or fulfill a pledge of financial support.
Donations can be made in any amount, and
designated toward any and all entities of
campus.
Communication is an important aspect
of all these efforts. The Alumni Review magazine,
produced by the Alumni Association, is mailed,
free of charge, to all alumni and friends
throughout the year. The organizations’ Web
site, www.undalumni.org, exists as a continuous
way for alumni, friends and the community-at-large
to maintain active connections with the Unviersity.
Alumni
and friends of UND are integral to the success
of this institution. Intellectual,
financial and fan support are just a few
of the ways people give back. Every college,
school, department, faculty member, and student
has benefited from the generosity of alumni
and friends through one form or another.
This rich tradition of pride and community
was established by UND’s first eight
graduates and continues fervently today.
