UWG School of Communication, Film, and Media

Thank you to everyone who joined us last night for our Sumner Alumni Social at Atkins Park Restaurant & Bar - Virginia Highland!

It was wonderful spending the evening reconnecting with alumni, sharing stories, and catching up with familiar faces. Opportunities like these remind us that being part of the SCFM family doesn't end at graduation. It continues through the relationships we build along the way.

We appreciate everyone who came and look forward to creating more opportunities for our alumni to connect in the future. Couldn't make it this time? We hope to see you at our next SCFM alumni event!

Tomorrow's the day, SCFM Alumni!🎊

We're excited to finally gather for the SCFM Alumni Summer Social after last week's weather postponement. Whether you graduated a year ago or decades ago, this is a chance to reconnect with familiar faces, make new connections, and celebrate the community that continues long after graduation.

We'd love to see you there! Tag a fellow SCFM alum in the comments and make plans to join us tomorrow!
