If you’re planning alumni events in 2025 (or just want to make them more impactful), this session is for you.

We’re bringing together teams from Furman University, Claremont McKenna College, and Lubbock Christian University to share what’s really working when it comes to engaging alumni, what kinds of events are drawing people in, and what strategies are paying off.

We’ll break down how they planned their events, how they promoted them, and what they'd absolutely do again.

🎯 You’ll walk away with:

  • Real event ideas and formats that are working in 2025
  • Strategies for segmenting and targeting different alumni groups
  • Promotion tactics that actually increase turnout
  • Insights into tools and workflows that save time and drive results

Expect a few “Why didn’t we try that?” moments. Maybe even a “Wait, that’s allowed?” one.

RSVP now to join us live on April 23 at 1 PM EDT. Can’t make it? No worries—we’ll send you the full recording after the session so you won’t miss a thing


💡 A few stories you’ll hear:

  • How Furman University drew nearly 1,000 attendees to their Homecoming, with targeted sub-events for young alumni, Black alumni, and golden grads, and even sold Christmas ornaments and gave welcome kits to deepen engagement.
  • How Claremont McKenna College made Alumni Weekend unforgettable with dorm stays, craft brew tastings, and Lunch & Learn sessions—plus on-the-spot payments using a POS device, all synced seamlessly to RE NXT.
  • How Lubbock Christian University packed creativity into Homecoming 2024 and keeps things going year-round with regional dinners, alumni luncheons, and a brand-new travel series that kicked off with an Alaskan cruise.

You’ll hear the full stories and plenty of ideas you’ll want to try during the webinar. So, come join us! 🚀
