A New Place to Call Home : #OwnYourColors
Radford University alumni have a new place to call home on campus — the recently renovated Russell Hall. Previously a residence hall, home of the College of Humanities and Behavioral Sciences (CHBS) and the Radford University Police Department, the first floor of Russell Hall is now transformed into the Alumni Center.
The new Alumni Center features impressive spaces to host alumni-centered events, including Alumni Board of Directors meetings, special events, reunion activities and the Radford University Ambassador group meetings.
As visitors enter, they are greeted by fashion display cases maintained and created by Department of Design students. While stopping by, guests can utilize the Visitor’s Office, a space designed for visiting alumni who are on campus guest speaking, meeting with students or otherwise engaged with the university community.
The Alumni Center is located in the heart of campus with views of the entire campus. Alumni are welcome to stop by for a cup of coffee, said Sandra Bond ’97, MBA ’00, director of alumni relations operations.
"This is truly the welcome center for the University. Whether you are a prospective student, alumnus or a business that is looking to hire our students, we are the front door for the University." -Laura Turk ’87, M.S. ’90 Executive director for Alumni Relations
