Live the Maroon Life by wearing your Elon gear every Friday. Participate and you could win a prize! On randomly selected Fridays Student Alumni Council members will be in the Moseley Student Center handing out prizes to students on campus who are wearing Elon apparel. Student organization shirts, maroon and gold socks, an Elon hoodie or hat, facepaint - it doesn't matter what you wear, as long as it shows your Elon spirit!
Networking is a vital part of any career search, and being remembered is a vital part of networking. Stand out from the crowd and order customized Elon Calling Cards to hand out during interviews, internships and networking events.
Your order will include 100 color cards personalized with your class year, major, phone number and an Elon email address (did you know you get to keep your Elon email address after you graduate?!?).
Submit your order by visiting this website and entering the access code "elon." The Elon Alumni Association will email you when your order has arrived, and you can pick up your cards in Johnston Hall Alumni Center on South Campus. Each order of 100 cards costs $10.
Please note: The minimum wait time for an order of Elon Calling Cards is two weeks. However, because card orders will only be processed when there are six or more orders placed, it may take longer for the cards to be delivered.
Brought to you by the Student Alumni Council, the Elon Bucket List gives you a glimpse into the many things you'll be invited to take part in during your Elon experience.

Each spring, the Elon Alumni Association collaborates with young alumni living and working in several major cities to provide insights about their "hometowns."

Your tuition and fees only cover about 80 percent of your Elon education. Elon...Pass It On! marks the day of the academic year when a student's education is no longer paid by tuition and fees but rather gifts from alumni, parents, friends, grandparents, corporations and foundations.
Hundreds of alumni, parents and friends donate their time and resources to make Elon the great university it is today. Thank You Day gives you the chance to say "Thanks" to those who love and support Elon!
