Over the past few years the CMS Student Alumni Society has has grown into an
organization to be proud of. We have formed networks with fellow alumni through
holiday parties and social gatherings. We have brought joy
and happiness to several families (alumni, students and friends), that were in need
during the holiday season. We have also sponsored informational breakfasts
and orientations allowing students and alumni to come together
and learn more about what RIT and CMS have to offer.
Now that we are into 2009, the CMS Student Alumni Society is looking for new
people with fresh ideas to help build our membership. If you are the type
of person who wants to have fun and make a difference in peoples lives, just
one hour a month is all it takes to be part of the CMS Student Alumni Society.
If you are interested in becoming a member of our alumni society, we invite you to attend one of our monthly meetings
to find out more about what the CMS Student Alumni society has to offer.

Mission Statement
The Center for Multidisciplinary Studies (CMS) Student/Alumni Society
is committed to fostering and strengthening a spirit of community among
alumni, faculty, staff, students, families and friends.
We are devoted to promoting and maintaining positive and interactive
lifelong relationships between current and future members.
All CMS Alumni are ambassadors for the department and university
and therefore form a sound networking foundation which is
characteristic of a great educational institution.
Core Beliefs
- We recognize the importance of higher education and lifelong learning.
- We believe a partnership should exist between students, alumni, their families and the department.
- We believe that quality and accessibility are essential if the department is to fulfill its mission of teaching and community service.
- We believe that students and alumni have much to contribute to the future development of the department.
- We acknowledge we are a resource to our students, alumni and their families and will continue to develop this relationship.
The Center for Multidisciplinary Studies Student/Alumni Society has members
who have volunteered to serve as mentors to other students to
help answer questions based on their own experiences at RIT.
If you need advice about classes, concentrations, textbooks,
online courses, professors, parking, or even balancing work, family, and school,
these people are more than willing to help. Please contact Janet Nystrom at her e-mail address jsnldc@rit.edu to be assigned to a mentor.
