We are delighted to announce the 3rd  Annual National Gathering of Alumnae and Alumni to be held in historic and exciting Washington, DC on the weekend of May 20th – 22nd.   We look forward to this reunion gathering to meet and socialize together at the Dupont Hotel in DC.

 

Because these gatherings can help our local chapters grow and develop, we hope you’ll join us this time around to meet your fellow-alumni/alumnae, to become a more active member of LAU’s extended family of North America, and to have some “R & R” and fun in Washington!

If you are not receiving emails from LAU and would like to, please email your preferred email address to ed.shiner@lau.edu  This will be very helpful to our efforts to expand LAU’s Alumni/ae email base.  

 

We hope to see some old and new faces in the USA’s Capitol, Washington, DC!

 

Best regards,

Your National Gathering Committee
