Poly @lumni E-Newsletter |
JANUARY
2003 |
|
|
Our
inaugural Poly @lumni issue, released in December 2002,
was a success. We received an abundance of positive
feedback from alumni who enjoyed reading about new happenings
as well as old traditions on campus. In the new year,
we look forward to getting reacquainted with former
Broncos, fostering relationships with those already
involved year-in and year-out with the university, and
providing helpful services to our Cal Poly Pomona graduates.
