Ithaca College celebrated many successes in 2012, and we look forward to many exciting events in the year ahead. One of last year's banner events was Alumni Weekend. More than 1,000 alumni, family, and friends registered for the weekend and enjoyed reuniting with old friends, celebrated Professor Larry Doebler's career during the stellar choral alumni reunion, and participated in many other fun activities.

As we look toward this year's Alumni Weekend, it is important to us to evaluate the needs, preferences, and concerns of our alumni. We sent a survey out shortly after Alumni Weekend 2012, and are pleased to share the findings.

Based on the responses, we are looking into revising some of the menus for our events, particularly the Saturday picnic and dinner, and shifting some events to campus from downtown. We are also exploring ways to provide more class-based opportunities throughout the weekend. For those of you who did not attend and responded, we will provide your input to the Ithaca College Alumni Association Board of Directors to consider future events based on your feedback.

Thank you to all who participated in our survey; your feedback is helpful to our planning for this year and for future events. If you would like to see a summary of the survey results, they are posted here:

Please save the date for this year's Alumni Weekend: October 11–13, 2013. We'll send more information in the coming months. If you have any additional thoughts or suggestions, please write to alumniweekend@ithaca.edu. Our best wishes for a very happy New Year!

Yours,
The Ithaca College Office of Alumni Relations
