The Hajim School Visiting Committee
The members of the Hajim School Visiting Committee meet in fall and spring to hear what's new at the school, give their feedback, and then spread the news. As with the Dean's Advisory Committee, the Visiting Committee is a way to engage alumni. Members host events in their homes, for example, helping to open doors for other alumni to become involved. They also interact with students through Skype events and other activities.
In addition to the input members provide on curriculum and other programs, the Visiting Committee plays in important role in building support from the Hajim community for fundraising activities. All of the Visiting Committee members are themselves members of the George Eastman Circle. For more information about the committee, contact Derek Swanson.
