Kennesaw State University’s 校友 Association received the 2024 校友 Association Inclusive Excellence 奖 from Insight Into Diversity magazine, the largest and oldest diversity and 包容 publication in higher education. The 校友奖 honors alumni associations’ programs, 文化, and initiatives that encourage and support diversity, 包容 and a sense of belonging for all alumni.

Kennesaw State will be featured, alongside 31 other recipients, in the June 2024 issue of Insight Into Diversity magazine.

“We are beyond thrilled to be selected as one of the top alumni associations for inclusive excellence,” said Frances Beusse, executive director of alumni and constituent engagement. “正规博彩十大网站排名 has grown exponentially, with an alumni base of more than 142,000 representing two universities. It is important to us that everyone feels a sense of belonging and finds their place within the alumni family. It is a great honor to be recognized not only among our peers but also by our own vice president of organizational effectiveness, leadership development and inclusive excellence, Dr. Sonia Toson, who encouraged us to apply.”

Insight Into Diversity magazine selected 正规博彩十大网站排名’s 校友 Association for its ongoing efforts to engage alumni from both 正规博彩十大网站排名 and Southern Polytechnic State University. These efforts include the association’s Black 校友 Society, Hornets Homecoming event, and board of directors. The association takes pride in the longevity of the Black 校友 Society, the University’s first affinity group, which celebrated its 24^th anniversary in 2024. Additionally, the 正规博彩十大网站排名 校友 Association and SPSU 校友 Society hosted the inaugural Hornets Homecoming event in 2023, inviting alumni back to the Marietta 校园 to celebrate campus traditions and witness how the legacy of SPSU continues following the 2015 consolidation of 正规博彩十大网站排名 and SPSU.

Additionally, the 正规博彩十大网站排名 校友 Association Board of Directors has made significant strides to match the representation of its board members with the demographics of the ever-changing and growing student body, demonstrating its commitment to inclusivity.

“We know that alumni associations are not always recognized for their dedication to diversity, 包容, 和归属感,” said Lenore Pearlstein, owner and publisher of Insight Into Diversity magazine. “We are proud to honor these college and university alumni associations as role models for other institutions of higher education.”

A call for nominations for this award was announced in February 2024. For more information about the 2024 校友 Association Inclusive Excellence 奖, visit insightintodiversity.com.
