Jay R. Tunney brings to life excerpts from his book, The Prizefighter and the Playwright, about the friendship between his father, heavyweight boxing champion Gene Tunney, and playwright George Bernard Shaw.


DINNER FOR TWELVE


This new event provides an opportunity for alumni to host 12 college students for dinner at their home. The type of experience you create is entirely up to you: a casual backyard BBQ, a formal dinner at home, or a pizza night at the Alumni House are all possible options. Each event offers students the opportunity to network with alumni and ask questions about life after college. The evening starts off as a room full of strangers and ends with lifelong connections. There are two ways you can get involved: • Host an event: We’ll collaborate with you to determine location, program, and menu.


• Sponsor an event: You determine the details, including your preferred group size, student audience, co-hosts, and, of course, the menu.


COFFEE WITH ALUMNI


Help welcome incoming Loyola students and their families at Loyola Weekend. We are looking for our most enthusiastic alumni to join us in sharing their Loyola story with students while enjoying breakfast and coffee. Lend a few hours on a Saturday and/or Sunday morning, catch up with other alumni, and help us showcase the strong Loyola community that continues even after you graduate.


Next Loyola Weekend: April 8–9, 2017


LETTER WRITING CAMPAIGN Alumni can spend an evening writing short notes to prospective students who have been accepted to Loyola. We have received significant feedback from students who've said these notes from Loyola alumni have made a significant impact on their decision to enroll. Mary Houston: MKing11@LUC.edu for more information on how you can get involved.
