Back Together on Campus for Alumni Weekend 2023

Home>News>

Once students graduate from AUP, they remain members of our worldwide community for life. 聽Every year, in celebration of this enduring connection, the Office of Communications and Outreach welcomes alumni and former students back to campus for AUP鈥檚 Alumni Weekend, a reunion celebration over two days in May consisting of campus tours, networking events, museum visits and social events.

Over 50 alumni registered to return to 国产三级片in 2023 to relive their student days in the City of Light. Highlights of the weekend included the 国产三级片tradition of a guided museum tour; in this instance, Professor Jonathan Shimony of the Department of Art History and Fine Arts took alumni to the Mus茅e Rodin to discover the works of one of France鈥檚 great sculptors in situ.

Alumni also had a chance to meet Professor Elena Berg, Director of the Joy and Edward Frieman Environmental Science Center, who presented her research on the luxury bottled water industry. As well as being an Associate Professor of Environmental Science, Berg is a certified water sommelier. She led alumni in a tasting of fine mineral waters, while discussing the role water enthusiasts can play in creating sustainable water management practices in the future.

The Office of Communications and Outreach also teamed up with the Center for Academic, Career and Experiential Advising to offer a speed-networking event for students and alumni as part of the weekend for the first time. More than 25 students from the graduating class of 2023 joined the attending alumni for a careers-focused meet-and-greet. It was also an opportunity for students to get a taste of what AUP鈥檚 alumni services have to offer them and to start building enduring connections with other alumni living and working in more than 145 countries worldwide.

A special faculty, staff and alumni panel presented, through multiple community perspectives, the important topic of artificial intelligence chatbots such as ChatGPT and their impact on the global liberal arts. Professors Claudia Roda, Director of the MSc in Human Rights and Data Science, and Geoffrey Gilbert, Director of the Teaching and Learning Center, were joined by Mary Bremond of the ACE Center and alumnus Sam Yehya 鈥11, Partner at Six, a technology and professional services consulting firm, for a one-off panel debate.

Social events included lunch in AUP鈥檚 own AMEX Caf茅; the Alumni Welcome Cocktail, attended by 国产三级片President Sonya Stephens; and an 国产三级片favorite, the Alumni Boat Party, hosted in Le Gustave floating restaurant, right next to the Eiffel Tower. For those Classes who were celebrating milestone anniversaries, special reunion dinners took place, organized by Class representatives, in restaurants across AUP鈥檚 home, Paris鈥檚 7th arrondissement.

Alumni Weekend takes place annually, and next year鈥檚 event will take place on April 25鈥27, 2024.聽 Other alumni events take place all over the world throughout the year; to learn about upcoming events and to be sure not to miss any future opportunities, follow 国产三级片Alumni Affairs on LinkedIn.
