Office of University Relations
318 –330 High Street
As its name implies, the Office
of University Relations seeks to develop and maintain
ties between Wesleyan and its alumni/ae, parents,
and friends, as well as the local Middletown community
and the general public. The office promotes local
Wesleyan clubs across the country that enlist alumni/ae
and parent volunteers in activities including admission
recruiting, fund-raising, faculty seminars, social
events, service projects, and career networking. The
University Relations office also hosts some of the major
campus weekends, including Homecoming/Family Weekend,
Volunteer Weekend, and Reunion & Commencement
Weekend. The University Relations office is also
responsible for fund-raising activities, including
capital and annual fund campaigns. The Class of 2002 set
a record of 90 percent participation in the annual fund.
The University Relations office seeks student help at
various times throughout the year, particularly during
the major campus weekends and when children of alumni/ae
visit the campus for the Sons & Daughters Program.
The University Relations Office is helped greatly in
these efforts by the Red & Black Society, a student
group that undertakes volunteer activities. Students are
also employed in the University Relations Office through
the work-study program and as interns during the regular
academic year. At the end of the year, the office hires a
student work force to help prepare for and staff Reunion
& Commencement Weekend, which brings more than 7,000
alumni/ae, parents, and family members back to campus.
Locations: The "big white box" at 318 High
Street houses the office of the vice president of
university relations; it is also the location for the
regional programs that work with local alumni/ae and
parents across the country. The office also deals with
alumni/ae classes and their annual giving. At 330 High
Street (the "little house down the driveway,"
also called the "alumni office") is the Office
of Alumni Relations. The office coordinates events on and
off campus and works with alumni/ae and parent volunteers
on developing events and on planning reunions.

Office of Media
Relations
Third Floor, South College
The Office of Media Relations operates a hometown news release
program to highlight the accomplishments of students for their local
newspapers, as well as other media. New students receive a card at
orientation asking for information that will help the Office of Media
Relations target appropriate media outlets with information about them.
If you have an achievement at Wesleyan that you would like to see
mentioned in a hometown release, please call Dianna Hyland at (860)
685-2878 or e-mail her at
dhyland@wesleyan.edu.
