Alumni Homepage

Dear Fellow Alumni,

Greetings from the FSU Alumni Association! As president of this organization, I am eager to find more ways for alumni to remain engaged with their alma mater. Like many of you, I have wonderful memories of my time at Frostburg, where I met some of my closest friends. You can see some of them in a photo from my wedding here.

However, these days not all students come from the same experience. We have students who earned degrees in Hagerstown, Arundel Mills or other sites; students whose first degrees were master’s degrees or doctorates; and even a growing number of online graduates.

Alumni are different, but we are all still Bobcats. What FSU alumni do have in common is the value of the education we all received. There are many ways that we as alumni can be part of the educational experience of today’s students.

I know I benefited from my interactions with alumni at the Sloop Institute for Excellence in Leadership, and plenty of alumni return every year to speak at the Career Expo or in the classroom. Your gifts to support scholarships, Opportunity Grants and other Foundation initiatives can make a huge difference in students’ lives. We are especially grateful to those of you who offer internships and other experiences to students at your places of business, and to those who encourage prospective students to consider Frostburg.

We want to hear from you about other ways you would like to engage with your University. Please send your ideas to alumni@frostburg.edu or call the Office of Alumni Relations at 301.687.4068. GO BOBCATS! 

Sincerely,

Ashley Wisner Vascik ’08/M’09
