NOVEMBER 2018

In this issue, we shine the spotlight on SMU Alumni Homecoming Day 2019, which is organised in conjunction with Patron's Day 2019! Happening on 26 January 2019 (Saturday), the event brings together all 15 cohorts of SMU alumni for a day of celebrations. You can look forward to Lucky Draws, with chances to win holidays in Bali, or tickets to watch Real Madrid's La Liga game in Spain, amongst many other prizes. Participate in "Back to Class" seminars, embark on Campus Tours and Art Tours, and interact with our Alumni 'Human Library Books'! Most importantly, it is a day to meet up with your friends from uni days, and Re19nite the SMU spirit!
