Thank you for an outstanding year of engagement with the Emory Scholars Program! We are grateful for your time, effort, and mentorship as we endeavored to expand our alumni programming this year. We can boast a strong increase in alumni involvement, all thanks to you. This involvement enriches the experiences of current Scholars, and hopefully, enriches your post-emory experience as well. Check out the honor roll of alumni who have been involved this semester. It has been my pleasure to serve as the external relations fellow this past year, working with many of you to implement new programs and create deeper connections. This position has grown my love for Emory and my appreciation for the character of our community. As I finish my time working with the ESP, I am excited to join you all as an active alum. I will be continuing my studies at the New York University School of Law this August and sincerely hope to stay connected to many of you as we continue to support Emory and the Scholars together. Warm Regards, Mae Bowen 16C Outgoing External Relations Postgraduate Fellow Emory Scholars Program P.S. We'd love to connect you to the Emory Scholars Program.
