University of San Diego Black Alumni Network

🍳 Brother Brunch is happening on March 22👊

This isn’t just brunch, it’s brotherhood. We’re bringing together the past, present, and future of campus excellence to connect current students with the alumni, faculty, and staff who paved the way.

Whether you’re a first-year navigating campus or have been out of college, this space is built for you.

Why you should be there:

* No stiff suits or forced scripts, just real talk about the modern student experience.
* Connect with brothers across every academic discipline and career stage.
* Leave with more than just a full stomach—walk away with a stronger support system and a lasting network.

Come ready to share your story, ask questions, and find your community. We look forward to seeing you at the table. 🤝
