Letters from alumni outside of Johnston Hall

Calling all U of G Grads: Write a note of encouragement for students!

For the eighth year in a row, alumni will be inspiring first-year students through our "Letters from Alumni" program (formerly "Letters in Residence"). 

When it comes to final exams, first-year students are on the brink of a defining moment. They might be grappling with uncertainty, stress, and doubt - we all remember that feeling. Alumni are invited to share words of encouragement and our Residence Life team will deliver over 5,000 postcards with alumni messages to students in residence and and off-campus.

Craft a few sentences that can inspire and motivate. Your wisdom can help students face exam season feeling less alone. Let's create a ripple of inspiration that spans generations. 

Submit your words of encouragement today!
