Alumni Services and Benefits

Welcome Fellow Alumni!

    It is my sincere hope that this website will become a valuable resource for fostering participation in upcoming alumni events and encouraging engagement in the future of JFKU. We started with a small classroom in Martinez with just 54 students, but you are now in the company of more than 10,000 Alumni Association members. As our numbers grow, we remain committed to our original mission of offering accessible academic programs that transform lives.

    The Alumni Council, the governing body of the Alumni Association, is busy planning activities that address this energy and diversity. We are looking to emphasize interaction between students, faculty, staff, and alumni. Our goal is to provide opportunities for friendship renewal, financial support of the University, and continuing educational opportunities for all our alumni. The Alumni Council extends to each of you warm greetings and hopes that you will use this website for reconnecting and further exploring those relationships that began during your JFKU education.

    I look forward to hearing from you or visiting at one of our upcoming events.

    Sincerely,
    Doug Balderston
    Alumni Council President

You also retain access to JFKU's Career Center services such as the Alumni Career Connections Network, the Career Resource Library, free Internet job searches, free career counseling for one year after graduation, and discounted career-related events and workshops.

JFKU computer labs are open to you on a space-available basis. Current students have priority, but you only need to verify your alumni status when signing in for an email account that's currently available.

Our libraries are at your fingertips. Use the online catalog to search the collections of all 5 libraries, reserve and renew circulating materials and request books and articles through interlibrary loan.

Visit the University Libraries to check out books and media or search the electronic databases. Research assistance is available in person and by phone or email. Please see the web site for more detailed information about alumni library services.

The Law Library offers alums free on site access to reference materials, videos, research assistance, electronic databases (with the exception of Westlaw) and the Internet.
