Details: | CMU's Inaugural Black Alumni Weekend provides space for continued CMU engagement, as well as the cultivation of relationships with – and among – Black alumni. Alumni will have several opportunities to connect with their contemporaries while learning from current students about their experiences on campus. Share with undergraduates how they can build their network and gain insight into post-graduate industries. Talk smack on the courts and then dress to impress at this year's sneaker ball. Center yourself at our ecumenical service and commune once more before departing Mount Pleasant. This is an event you don't want to miss!
