'March Membership Month' sets record halfway through campaign

The WWU Alumni Association is in the second half of its March Membership Month campaign and has reached a record 4,000 Alumni Association members!

During March Membership Month, new and renewing annual members receive exclusive Viking socks, and new Life Members can choose to receive either a WWU hammock or WWU mug set.

Students, faculty and staff, and the general community are all eligible to become members of the Association, which provides discounts and benefits for members while contributing to the $87,000 in scholarships awarded to deserving students this year through the WWU Alumni Scholarship for Undergraduate Students.

A robust Alumni Association strengthens WWU by putting a spotlight on the groundbreaking things our alumni, faculty and students are doing. Your membership also supports scholarships, networking activities for students and alumni, and keeps the Viking community connected through exciting events.

Local discounts include 20% off lunch at Boundary Bay, 20% off Western gear in the AS Bookstore, 10% off at Pure Bliss, membership at Lakewood, special member discounts to events sponsored by your WWU Alumni Association, and that warm feeling that you’re doing great things for students and WWU!
