A sense of community is important to all of us, because communities help define our lives. Think of all the communities you've been a part of: your family, your hometown, your teams, clubs or churches… and Oregon State University. Being a member of the vibrant, stimulating and welcoming OSU community was a rewarding part of your college years. And the best way to remain a part of that community is a membership in the OSU Alumni Association.

It was easy to be a part of the OSU community when you were a student - it surrounded you. Now that your life has progressed, the Alumni Association comes into play: We exist to help you maintain those community ties, and to facilitate lifelong relationships with your fellow Beavers. We're here to help you stay connected.

How about these:
Show your loyalty -- It really means something special to be a Beaver. There's a long line of proud Beavers who recognize that the OSU environment helped them become successful - and they want to make sure that environment of success exists for future Beavers. By staying connected with an OSUAA membership, you become an important part of that proud tradition.

Give something back -- Your OSU experience was enriched by access to great resources. And now you can gain satisfaction by providing current and future OSU students with resources for their own great experiences. Your OSUAA dues fund mentor programs, recognition awards, the Student Alumni Association and more. It's an affordable way to help give something back to the school that gave you so much.

Valuable networking -- The OSU Alumni Association may be the best networking resource you'll ever have - Beavers are always ready to help other Beavers. And with OSUAA reunions, tailgaters and lots of other functions, you'll have the chance to renew connections with old friends and make new connections that you can put to use in your career.

You always belong -- You're not just a Beaver when you go to school - you're a Beaver for life. You belong to an elite group, and it's deeply rewarding to be a part of something so valuable for the rest of your life. With an OSUAA membership, you're always connected to the Beaver Nation.


"There's a strong sense of kinship at OSUAA events. Whether it's watching a football game or helping with a charitable event, there's no better way to get to know fellow Beavers and make useful professional connections." -- Bill Garber, '96
