Young Alumni Academy Class of 2018

As up-and-coming young professionals, members of the UNO Young Alumni Academy are always reaching new heights. That was especially so in April when the academy’s Class of 2018 commemorated the end of its eight-month leadership development program by visiting the top of Henningson Memorial Campanile 168 feet above campus.

The award-winning academy, designed for alumni 35 and younger, facilitates peer networking and professional growth. The group’s capstone session included a tour of UNO’s 168-foot-tall Campanile followed by “commencement” at the Thompson Alumni Center. Several group members serenaded campus with an attempt at “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.”

The campanile tour was one of eight sessions held at locations across campus. That included a night with UNO’s college deans, a behind-the-scenes tour of Baxter Arena and a service project.

More than 300 young alumni have taken part in the program, which begins its ninth year in October. To apply for the Class of 2019 Young Alumni Academy, click here.
