TAR HEELS IN TOWN

No matter where you have landed after graduation, you're likely to find other Carolina alumni - and there's a good chance they have established a GAA-sponsored local Carolina Club. Carolina Clubs are a great resource to help you get settled in a new city, make business contacts, locate Tar Heel healthcare professionals, find a roomie . . . the opportunities for Carolina connections are endless. So take in a game, participate in a service project or attend a lecture by a Carolina professor. Carolina Club activities vary, and local leaders are always looking for new energy, ideas and enthusiasm. Sign up for your local Club's listserv to get updates on all the Carolina happenings in your area. No club in your area? E-mail Casey to get one started.


REQUIRED READING

The Carolina Alumni Review is your ONLY source of comprehensive news for and about Carolina alumni. It's a must read for those who want to keep up with all the news in Chapel Hill, issues facing higher education and updates on your classmates. On top of that, every issue of the Review has a DTH crossword puzzle - it'll remind you of the old days back in Hamilton 100. The Carolina Alumni Review is mailed bimonthly and is also available online for GAA members.
