Alumni Events Calendar

Thank you for registering for tomorrow night’s event at Quirky. Courtney Huff in the Alumni Relations office had e-mailed you yesterday, but we wanted to make sure you received word about a change in plans.

Because of circumstances out of our control, we will not be able to meet at Quirky, so our plans to have an event there are postponed indefinitely. For more information, please visit the Quirky website. We fully intend to plan an event once Quirky is able to resume normal operations, and we’ll be in touch when a new date has been selected.

We would still like to hold an event tomorrow night, so please join us at the Atwood (986 2nd Ave., Manhattan, at 52nd Street), starting at 6 p.m. Complimentary hors d’oeuvres will be provided and drink specials will be offered.
