Dear CUW Graduates:
Concordia’s alumni fulfill our mission, and the day-to-day interaction of students with faculty and staff mentors is part of that process. The Concordia experience forms and shapes people, and as our university mission statement says, “helps students to develop in mind, body, and spirit.” But that intellectual, physical, and spiritual growth is not an end in itself. It’s not simply “mission accomplished.”
Concordia’s Christian higher education is intended to prepare graduates, as the Mission Statement concludes, “for service to Christ in the Church and the world.” Thus, Concordia’s mission cannot be fulfilled apart from you and your lives of service within your families, workplaces, churches, and communities. We remain interested in you and are eager to stay connected.
Concordia is your alma mater and you are Concordia’s legacy to the world – our dedicated alumni!
Rev. Patrick T. Ferry, Ph.D.
President
Dear CUW Alumnus:
Whether your memories of Concordia go back to the Milwaukee campus 50 years ago, to last year’s graduation or at a CUW Center, your Concordia experience can continue. As a graduate of Concordia University Wisconsin, you are automatically part of the Alumni Association with a community of more than 32,000 special and impressive alumni.
The primary focus of the CUW Alumni Association is to support Concordians helping Concordians – providing you with resources and opportunities to connect, interact, serve and grow. Through the Association, you will have meaningful opportunities to become connected and stay connected with one another, as well as with students and faculty. You can network, volunteer, and continue to learn. Whether you attend an alumni or campus event, take advantage of the facilities or services available to you, or act as a mentor, we encourage you to continue your journey of personal growth by maintaining a personal connection with your alma mater and fellow alumni.
We invite you to explore our website pages to learn how you can become involved. Please feel free to share your ideas with us on how we can serve you and your family. I look forward to working with you, and to seeing you at future events both on and off campus, as well as on CUWConnect, your online alumni community.
Michelle “Mickie” Wagner
Director of Alumni & Parent Relations
