Giving to Manchester

The Manchester University STAT Student group became an official campus organization in the fall of 1991. STAT has been teaching students the importance of philanthropy for over 25 years! This volunteer group consists of 25 students who work with the Office of Alumni Relations. You may find our students helping with events such as: Homecoming, Baccalaureate & Commencement, Giving Day, Parents and Family Weekend, and the Senior Celebration. STAT is also used as a resource for student and alumni interaction.

To become a part of STAT, you must be nominated by current STAT members, faculty, or staff. If you have any questions, please contact the Alumni Office at alumnioffice@manchester.edu.

Lost Classmates

We need your help to find current information on your fellow alums. Below are lists, by decade, of alums for whom we’re missing information.

Alumni usually are interested in keeping a current address on file at their alma mater, but for some reason we no longer have current information for some individuals. Your help will make it possible for us to send timely information on alumni opportunities and regional activities as well as news from friends and Manchester magazine.

Please use the Lost Classmates Form to provide as much information as possible.

We appreciate your help!
