Alumni and Friends
You are our best recruiters. As alumni and friends of SBU you know first-hand the impact an SBU education can make on a student’s life and the world. As alumni you’ve experienced the challenge of pursuing academic excellence from a biblical worldview. Maybe you’ve studied with or worked with SBU’s distinguished faculty. Perhaps you’ve gone on SBU mission trips and have seen how SBU students are impacting the world. Or maybe you’ve seen the joy on students’ faces as your generous donation has made it possible for them to fulfill their dream of going to a distinguished Christian university.
Tell prospective students your stories of special memories at SBU and how SBU impacted your life. When you recall your SBU experiences with them, we hope you will remember how that special professor deepened your faith or challenged you to academic excellence. Most SBU alumni especially recall the good friendships they made in the dorms or at campus activities or on mission trips. Prospective students need to hear your stories!
