UNM Alumni hosts Senior Send-Off for graduating Lobos

Graduating Lobos are invited to celebrate their achievements and prepare for life after commencement at the annual Senior Send-Off, hosted by the UNM Alumni Association and sponsored by Santa Clara Development Corporation. The event takes place Wednesday, April 30, from 1 to 4 p.m. at Hodgin Hall Alumni Center.

Senior Send-Off offers a wide range of free resources and activities tailored to soon-to-be graduates. Career support includes a new resume builder-where students can enter their information and receive a professional resume in minutes-as well as professional headshots and resume reviews from UNM Career Services and the Alumni Career Network. Attendees are encouraged to bring a change of clothes for photos.

Graduates can decorate their mortarboards at the cap decorating station, pick up a free "Lobo for Life" T-shirt by signing up for UNM Alumni Connect, and enjoy prize giveaways courtesy of Jostens Class Rings. Snacks and a popular candy bar station will also be available throughout the event.

Students will have the opportunity to connect with a wide array of campus resources and partners, including the UNM Bookstore pop-up shop, the Anderson School of Management, the College of Pharmacy, Graduate Studies, the UNM Scholarship Office, UNM Alumni Benefits, Fresquez Enterprises, Sunward Federal Credit Union, and more.

Registration for the event and a full list of graduation resources are available at UNMAlumni.com/Sendoff. Students are also encouraged to check out UNM Alumni's Graduation Photos at the U and Hodgin Hall Study Hours to help finish the semester strong.

Businesses interested in supporting the event can participate as booth sponsors for $100, gaining exposure through websites, social media, and marketing materials. To learn more about sponsorship opportunities, contact Raymond Armijo at 505-506-6606 or rarmijo64@unm.edu.
