UW-Green Bay's premier source for Alumni News
Got the thirst for a greener environment? Then UW-Green Bay’s first-ever “Green Drinks” social gathering is for you. Find it at the Common Grounds Coffee House in the University Union from 4:30 to 9 p.m. the first Friday of every month.
Recently united? We’d love to know! Drop us an e-mail at stalumni@uwgb.edu with word on the good news. We want to know the date, place, and the name of your lucky partner. Marriages are listed in Inside, your alumni magazine.
It’s easy to find first-class accommodations and reasonable rates for your next vacation. Go Next travel and your Alumni Association partner to make it happen. We work with nationally recognized, pre-approved companies to offer discounted products and services to UWGB graduates. When a graduate takes advantage of an affinity program, often a fee/donation is made to the Alumni Association from the partner company. Plus you won’t believe the personal savings. Other partnering companies include Liberty Mutual, Phoenix Bookstore, Bank of America, Green Bay Area hotels, plus many more. Check out your alumni benefits.
UW-Green Bay partners with Go Next travel and fellow UW System schools to offer first-class, affordable international tour packages.
