Center for Community Engagement invites you to say hello


To celebrate its fifth year at UND, the Center for Community Engagement is inviting alumni, faculty, staff, students, and community members to stop by to say a special hello at an open house during Homecoming, Friday, Oct. 2, 9 a.m. to noon.

Visitors to the Center will be able to send an electronic greeting to their hometown through “Hometown Hello,” a special tribute to communities across the world who have a connection to UND. The Center’s mission is to link faculty and students to communities through teaching and research.

Besides posting a greeting, guests can have a caricature drawn by a local artist, have refreshments, and sit a spell and visit with alumni. In the afternoon from 2 to 4 p.m., former UND journalism faculty member Archie Hill, will conduct a second Al Austin Memorial writing workshop, “Your Legacy in Print: Writing Your Experiences.” The workshop is free for students, $20 for others. Call 777-0675 for registration information.
