  • 3/27 Are You an Alum? Volunteer at the Etiquette Dinner

    We're hosting our annual Etiquette Dinner! Our goal is to teach students to present a professional image while practicing those skills over a three-course meal. Montique Cotton Kelly, Vice President for Alumni Relations, will be sharing tips and anecdotes. 

    We're looking for alumni who are interested in hosting tables (2 - 3 alumni per table of 6 - 8 students). Hosting duties include meeting students at your table and sharing your own etiquette-related stories. Horror stories welcome! Whether you graduated in 1957 or 2017, alumni of all experience levels are encouraged to host. You can sign up through our student registration page, and your registration will be complimentary.

    If you work with students on campus, please encourage them to attend. The Etiquette Dinner will be held on Tuesday, March 27. It is open to all undergraduate and graduate students from all UConn campuses. There is a $10 charge to attend, which includes salad, choice of entree, dessert, beverages, and priceless information for professional success!

    Space at the Etiquette Dinner is limited, so sign up quickly to ensure your spot at the dinner table. To register for this event, please visit www.etouches.com/etiquette2018 

    We can accommodate a variety of needs, so please let us know on the registration form if you have dietary restrictions. Registration will close on Wednesday, March 21, 2018 at 12:00 p.m.
