Welcome
Keep in Touch
Thank you so much for coming today. It’s a pleasure to
welcome you back to campus and to know that there’s still
a desire for alumni to maintain a lifelong relationship
with Warwick.
For further information about Warwick Alumni and to
ensure you don’t miss out on future events, learning and
networking opportunities, make sure we have your up to
date contact details:
When we started planning this alumni day we wanted
to pick a theme that would speak to everyone, one that
would be relevant to who you are now rather than the
person you were at graduation. We think that the subject
of happiness is important to everyone, no matter what
they studied, when they graduated or what they are
doing now.
In a way this is how we see our relationship with our
alumni. It doesn’t stop on graduation day, it changes but
we hope it’s still relevant. We’re here to help whether you
graduated this year, last year or more than 40 years ago.
