of March. This meal will be very popular this month because of the
Lenten season. All of the funds raised will go to the University of

facilities on the university’s campus.
8) ALUMNI OUTREACH THROUGH FACEBOOK – WE NEED YOUR HELP!
· I
have created the official University of Guam Alumni Facebook page.
There are many exciting activities in store for you this year as we
celebrate the University's 60th Anniversary! The Facebook page is just
one of the methods the Office of Alumni Affairs will use to keep you
informed. To best address the objectives of this group, only UOG alumni
are permitted to be part of it and interact with other members. We need
this group to grow, so please feel free to send invitations to your
fellow alum to join this group. But, please be aware that their
inclusion is subject to verification.
· To access the alumni group page, click the link below or cut and paste it. You must have a facebook account to log on.
In
addition, you’re receiving this email because you either signed up for
membership to the UOG Alumni Association or updated your contact
information with the University. Over time, email accounts may get
deleted or addresses change so some of your fellow alum are not
receiving the latest campus-related news which may benefit them. I
respect everyone’s privacy so I’m not asking you to send me email
addresses. I do humbly ask, however, that if you know alum who don’t
seem to be aware of these updates, please forward this email to them. If
they contact me and give me their permission, I will gladly include
them in our database so that they may start receiving updates. Should
anyone opt out from receiving these emails I will surely honor their
request as well.
