When you graduate from a university, you become an alumnus and join a new group of people with which you can connect. At the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, you're among a family of more than 26,000 alumni when you graduate. This is a special group because you share a bond that connects you. Whether it was your undergrad or graduate degree, sports team or affinity group, you are part of a wonderful network. You are part of our family, and we want you to stay connected. Here are eight ways to stay connected to your alma mater and the network of Crusaders Forever!

4- Meet more alumni at events.

Reconnect at Homecoming, reminisce at Charter Celebration, enjoy Cru Sports or UMHB Arts, network and have fun at summer events. Visit umhb.edu/alumni/events to learn more.

5- Your UMHB story is important.

Tell it to family, friends, co-workers, or anyone who will listen. Don't forget to tell us your story so we can brag about our outstanding alumni.

6- Recruit new CRU!

As alumni, sharing your UMHB experience can help recruit new Cru. You can also share the names of potential Crusaders with us at admissions@umhb.edu.

7- Come back to campus!

Who says the college experience has to stop once you graduate? You might even have more time to enjoy perks like sporting events, art exhibits, fine arts performances, guest speakers, residential dining and more.

8-Give Back!

Most of UMHB's growth and scholarships are because alumni and friends give back to the place that impacted them. You can support projects, scholarships and much more by making a gift. Check out the giving opportunities at umhb.edu/giving

We love all of our UMHB alumni and would love for the opportunity to connect with more of our graduates. By engaging in these activities, alumni will significantly benefit from the experiences and interactions. Our alma mater reminds us that we are

"Ever thankful for our past, into the future we will go."

With alumni like our UMHB graduates, we are excited to see what the future holds as we Live on Purpose.

1- Engage with @UMHB and @UMHBAlumni on social media.

Stay up to date with the latest events and information online, AND share your UMHB by liking and sharing milestones and memories.
