THANK YOU FOR SAYING YES! Over the past year, you responded favorably to myriad association invitations. You renewed your association membership or joined for the first time. You attended an Auburn Club, Affiliate, reunion or awards program either in person or virtually. You overwhelmingly shared your personal Auburn story through the Oral History Project, and you faithfully supported the Auburn Magazine voluntary subscription. By responding in the affirmative, you assisted our students and energized and challenged us to continue to create engagement opportunities that uniquely appeal to you.
