Summer surveys, discounts and Alumnus of the Year

10 June 2014

Alumni communications surveyStephen DixonHello everyone,

I'm tempted to wish you a happy summer, seeing as the UK weather has been nice lately, but I know that's almost inviting the rain to come back!

Let's hope the warm weather is here for this summer’s graduations though. Lots to look forward to that week and I'm keen to get back up to Nottingham for that. If you're graduating in July come and find me on the alumni stand in Newton building and I'll give you a goody bag!

Wherever you go this summer a good read, or anything else you fancy from Amazon, could be yours! We're offering you the chance to win £100 of Amazon vouchers just by completing our online communications survey. Let us know what you think about how we contact you and that prize could be yours!

You know we are always keen to hear how you're getting on, and we are extra keen to know who amongst our alumni is worthy of special recognition, either for their outstanding career or being an outstanding person. Every year we present an award to the Alumnus of the Year and we want your nominations. Time is ticking though - you only have until the end of June to get those recommendations in.

Whatever the weather, I hope the beginning of summer is a good time for you all. I’ll be in touch again soon. In the meantime, if you're planning a summer break don't forget our holiday cottage offer. There are hundreds of cottages to choose from and all with an exclusive 10% discount.

Bye for now.

Stephen
