Three Columbia Alumni events for your September calendar

With the end of summer nearing (but before you turn on your out-of-office for the bank holiday weekend) we wanted to share what’s happening next month. It’s a busy start to the autumn, with three events bringing together alumni from across our community and beyond.

We’ll begin September with a CUCL & INSEAD alumni mixer, followed by an Ivy + Oxbridge sustainability gathering in King’s Cross. We’ll close out the month with an engaging book talk with Erica Rex ’09JRN, joined in conversation by Professor David Nutt.

Whether you’re looking to reconnect with fellow alumni, broaden your network, exchange ideas, or join a thought-provoking discussion, we hope you’ll find something to enjoy. Spaces may be limited, so please register early using the links below.

We look forward to seeing you at an event soon.

— Stephen, John, Spyros, and Courtney
