Alumni & Friends

GSD welcomes alumni and friends to talks, lectures and films sponsored by the department. We also host special alumni events each year. Please e-mail us (gsd@umn.edu) with any news you would like to share, and we will post it on this page.

Alumni & Friends Listserv

In addition to the GSD Magazine and special alumni events, we've created an alumni listserv to keep you up to date with the department and each other. Click on "Join or Leave GSD-Alumni" and complete the form. We expect to post messages about once a month during the academic year with news of the department and alumni. Messages are approved by a moderator and only members of the list may post messages. You will not receive any spam by being subscribed.
