Message from the CST Alumni Board

As an undergraduate, I did not realize how impactful the work of our alumni community was in helping me and my fellow math and science majors. I was focused on studying for exams, juggling class and work study shifts at the library and experiencing a new city that I now call home for the past 18 years. But behind the scenes, CST alumni were partnering with staff to host job fairs, raising money for scholarships and even stepping up to teach courses and give guest lectures.

There are many ways CST alumni can give back, such as through financial contributions or donating their time and expertise. A gift to the CST Alumni Endowed Scholarship Fund honors outstanding students in each department. The Steven W. Szczepanski Memorial Student Support Fund provides resources to those experiencing a financial hardship. The Owl to Owl Mentor Program offers alumni the opportunity to share with students real-world advice about careers or life after Temple. I encourage you to explore the full list of giving opportunities on our website.

Personally, I know it may be challenging to give back to the university right after you graduate. But once you start, it makes it so fulfilling. I am proud of my fellow CST alums, a nerdy bunch that is important to the success of our university, the Philadelphia region and beyond.

Stay connected to CST by following the college on social media and reading our monthly email newsletters.

Sincerely,

Anne Beeman, CST ‘12
CST Alumni Board President
