Alumni and friends provide a vital function to the College. Whether serving in an advisory capacity, assisting with recruiting students, mentoring students, giving career assistance with graduating seniors, providing feedback on the future direction of our disciplines, or hosting an event, we rely on our alumni and friends to take an active role in supporting CALS. We encourage all of you to continue supporting our mission to discover, interpret and share knowledge, to prepare our students to lead productive, responsible, and creative lives, and to promote the application of relevant knowledge to benefit the State of Vermont and society as a whole.
