Before you take flight… JOIN THE FLOCK!

Hey seniors, have you ever wanted the chance to tell a UMass educator how much they impacted you? Or just wanted to thank them for being an amazing teacher, person, confidant, or advisor? Well, here is your chance!

This year, the senior campaign has a new twist – an amazing program called “GEESE”! While many of us UMass students and alumni are familiar with the hundreds of geese that call our campus pond home, the name of the campaign has a deeper meaning. “GEESE” is actually an acronym that stands for Gratitude for Educators Enhancing Student Experiences and that is exactly the goal of this new campaign!

So, what does all of this mean? Well, when seniors give a gift to the senior campaign, they get a chance to send a personalized thank you note to any staff member on campus and the Student Alumni Association will hand deliver the message to the recipient! This donation has the ability to both make a difference on our campus and make someone’s day!

Now that you know about “GEESE”, I am sure that you are thinking “WOW! How can I JOIN THE FLOCK?” and I am here to tell you that you have 3 options:

1. Come to Memorial Hall on any Friday in March or April between 12:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. to make your donation and write your note!
2. Visit the senior campaign website at this link, fill out a giving form, and we will create and deliver your thank you note for you!
3. Answer your Senior Campaign call and tell them you want to Join the Flock! The caller will write your note and we will deliver it.
Don’t miss this chance to leave your legacy at UMass Amherst! JOIN THE FLOCK!
