Dear first name,

It is with a mix of pleasure and sorrow that I bid you adieu. Effective December 31 st, I am officially retiring from Seneca College as Executive Director, Alumni.

Working with Seneca Alumni has been a tremendous honour. The graduates I have had the privilege to meet over the past four years are talented, upwardly mobile individuals who have been ready, willing and able to assist new graduates, students or Seneca each and every time they have been asked.

I hope you will continue to work with alumni volunteers and staff to continue to grow the value of your connection to each other and to Seneca, your alma mater, in the years ahead.

Andrew McDonald will be assuming the role of Alumni Relations. In that capacity he will continue to utilize Enews to update you with news, offers and requests for help between the bi-annual publications of Seneca Alumni Magazine.

Seneca is currently searching for a candidate to assume the fundraising role of Director, Affinity Partnerships and Alumni Engagement.

While I am retiring I will remain connected for the next few months assisting staff with transition.

Now down to business – Looking for a great holiday gift idea? Consider tickets for THE COLOUR PURPLE coming up in February, 2009.

We have a new resume service available to alumni who need outside expertise to make their accomplishments shine for prospective employers for that next career change.

Scroll through the topics and see what catches your interests or needs.

All the best in your future endeavours and enjoy your holiday break with family and friends.

Linda J. Hendy, CAE
Executive Director, Alumni
