Dear future Mountain Lion alumni,<\/p>

Welcome to UCCS! We are excited to have you as part of our community, and we look forward to adding you to the ranks of the Alumni and Friends Association in a few short years. You have chosen to study at one of the most beautiful university campuses in the United States and we know you will love getting to know the amazing UCCS faculty and staff here.<\/p>

Although this semester is a unique way to experience your budding educational journey, we want you to be aware of all the resources we have to offer you as a future alumnus\/alumna! Starting this fall, you will have a community of 12,000+ students and over 53,000 alumni behind you. We are all here to uplift UCCS and connect, support and engage in new ways.<\/p>

Dream big, challenge yourself, take chances and make the most of your four years at UCCS. We look forward to meeting you, even if it must be socially distanced or virtual! <\/p>

Make sure to check out the resources in our Mountain Lion Den<\/a> to get connected with the alumni community, read alumni success stories, find happy distractions<\/a>, or enjoy the remote learning hub<\/a>.<\/p>

As a small gift, download this desktop background<\/a> and bring your Mountain Lion pride wherever you go!<\/strong><\/p>

Best wishes for a successful semester,<\/p>
