YEAR ONE: Establish your Alumni Identity
Class of 2024, we encourage you to use your first year as alums to dip your toes into the pool of your Wesleyan community and ensure you stay connected to alma mater. You can do so in the following ways:
-
Join WesConnect
If you haven’t already, sign up for WesConnect! This is like your personal Facebook exclusive to the Wesleyan community. Here you can find friends from your time on campus, stay up-to-date on what’s happening with Wesleyans around the world, and seek a mentor! -
Make your second (or first!) gift
While you may or may not have participated in your Senior Class Gift initiative last year, we hope you’ll make a gift to any part of Wesleyan that matters most to you! We celebrate any and every gift, but if you’re stumped, you can never go wrong with a gift to Wesleyan’s Greatest Need. -
Attend Your First GOLD Party
Each year, we hold simultaneous GOLD parties in our major markets—usually on the first Thursday of April. This year our Graduates of the Last Decade will gather on Thursday, April 3, 2025, for parties in Boston, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. This event is not to be missed! -
Vote for Alumni-Elected Trustees
Every year, Wesleyan’s Alumni Association elects three new members to the Board of Trustees to serve a three-year term. You had the opportunity to vote as a graduating senior this past spring – let's make it an annual habit! These trustees help to influence the overall direction of Alma Mater. -
Attend a Summer Send Off in your area
Help us usher in the newly admitted class over the summer of 2025! We encourage you to join us and serve as a knowledgeable and relatable voice for the incoming freshman class. Take advantage while you can! We only invite our newest alumni to join the incoming class at these events.
