Email Invitation/UC Santa Cruz Alumni Association
 
Dear [New UCSC Student],

We are writing today to invite you to a celebration—in your honor! We are the L.A. Chapter of the UCSC Alumni Association, and we want to welcome you, as the newest members of the Slug family, to the UC Santa Cruz experience. In order to do that in style, on Sunday, September 10, we will be hosting the…

4th Annual
NEW STUDENT SEND OFF!


We hope you and your family will be able to join us for a fun and intriguing day. The New Student Send Off is a great opportunity to meet not just L.A. Slugs but also other new UCSC students from the LA area.

Now, who exactly are we? The L.A. Slugs are a network of UCSC graduates living in and around the LA region. There are L.A. Slugs working in film, theater, engineering, law, politics, journalism, music, architecture...everything! We are a resource for UCSC alumni and current students and can help you with career and internship connections. We host monthly alumni events and meetings. We have chosen to be members of the L.A. Slugs because UCSC had a strong, positive impact on our lives. We hope attending UCSC will be wonderful for you, too!

So, here’s the New Student Send Off info:

DATE: Sunday, September 10, 2006

TIME: 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

We are looking forward to meeting you in September and celebrating with you as you head off on this new journey—no longer along the bustling concrete sidewalks of L.A. but instead over the dirt-packed, redwood-lined pathways of the magnificent Santa Cruz campus.

We certainly wish you all the best!

Yours truly,
