Senior Events

Each fall, the Offices of Student Activities and Alumni Relations recruit several members of the graduating class to help organize numerous “Senior Events” throughout the year.  To celebrate you and your contributions to Carnegie Mellon, the Senior Events Committee works diligently throughout the year to sponsor an exciting slate of events that afford you the opportunity to mix and mingle with your fellow classmates.

For questions, concerns, or ideas for this year’s events, please email Tim Leonard, or stop by the Office of Student Activities.
