Dear Alumnus,

Final preparations are underway for Coming Back Together (CBT) IX, September 25-28, 2008. The campus community is eagerly awaiting your return so that they may share the changes that have occurred at Syracuse over the pass three years. The changes include:

• Confirmation of Bea González as the Dean of University College
• Naming of George Langford as Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences
• Naming of Lorraine Branham as Dean of the S. I. Newhouse School of Public Communications
• Dedication by the L. C. Smith College of Engineering and Computer Science of "Link+," a five-story, interdisciplinary wing added to Link Hall 
• Opening of the newly renovated Hinds Hall
• Dedication by the S. I. Newhouse School of Public Communications of Newhouse III

I look forward to you joining us in celebrating the changes at the University as you rekindle old friendships and establish new ones!

Sincerely,

Larry Martin
Associate Vice President
