The program, sponsored by Weir Manuel Realtors of southeast

complimentary hors d'oeuvres reception, followed by the
home-buying seminar at 7 p.m. GOLD alumni also are invited
to attend an afterglow at Sticks Pool & Pub, 39 E.
Cross St., Ypsilanti, for socializing and networking following
the program.
There is no cost to attend. However, advance registration
is required. To R.S.V.P., contact the Office for Alumni

The GOLD program is open to all EMU graduates of the past
10 years and serves the Alumni Association by catering
to the needs of its younger constituents. Like the Alumni
Association, there are no dues for membership. Events are
designed to further the program's mission of fostering
strong bonds between young alumni and EMU through social,
networking, educational and volunteer opportunities.
"We want to provide our alumni with resources to help
them make the best decisions with regard to first-time
home buying," said Ken Ruppel, assistant director of constituent
relations. "Our office is pleased to continue our series
of informative seminars aiding GOLD alumni in their successful
post-graduate life transitions."
