Giving of yourself is one of the most powerful ways in which you can give back to your Alma Mater. The CUI Alumni Association offers many programs in which you can become involved and offer your voice and expertise on-campus.
Volunteer to greet new students & families!
New Student Move-In Day (August): Provide drinks and refreshments to new students and their families as they moved into the residence halls.
Photos & Floats Send Off (August): Serve students and their families a traditional root beer float in a traditional plastic CUI cup before they say goodbye! There’s also a fun photo booth for that final selfie together.
Scarving (August): Welcome new students on the first day of school and foreshadow their future "Alumni status" with CUI's award winning tradition of scarving!
Eat & Greet Alumni Panel (October & April): Network with current students, guiding them along their journey before graduation with advice on jobs, resume writing, relationships, and more!
Homecoming (Jan/ Feb): Help with planning and events on this exciting day full of reminiscing and fun for all ages!
Senior Send Off (May): Enjoy a meal & fellowship with graduating students and their families just before they walk across that stage and enter the next phase of their life!

Reunions!
Do you want to help organize a class reunion for your graduating class? If so, please email [email protected].
Were you involved with a club and want to see your friends again? Want to reminisce with friends from your residence hall? Visit CUI Connect to join the online community and reconnect with students who shared your experience. Also, email [email protected] and let us know! We can help you organize your reunion.
Host a "Dine with Alum" Event!
If you live within 30 minutes of campus you can volunteer to host a dinner for CUI students. As the host of "Dine with an Alum" you may choose the time, date and number of students you wish to host, and the Alumni office will take care of your guest list. You may choose to host a specific group of students such as Inreach, SHOUT or you can host students within a specific discipline or major. This is a great opportunity for you to meet with current students and to learn first hand what changes are taking place on campus.
Host a Regional Event!
Do you live far from campus? Other alumni do too! If you are interested in hosting, or simply being involved in a regional event in your area, please let us know. We are very interested in hearing from alumni currently living in Los Angeles, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Northern California, Palm Springs and St. Louis. We would love to help coordinate an event in your area!
Actively Pray for the CUI Community!
The Lord has blessed Concordia University in many ways. We ask for your continued prayers as we continue to grow and provide a challenging education to future church workers and business leaders. Your time and prayers are greatly appreciated!
