Our annual Red and White Week was a great success, filled with engaging events for both Post-Career alumni and Golden Grads Forever Club members. A highlight was the Volunteer Appreciation Lunch on November 1 at the Dorothy and Roy Park Alumni Center, where Golden Grads Forever Club emeritus board member Robert Kennel, ’58, ’60, was recognized as the longest-serving volunteer present. It was an inspiring moment for all!

Golden Grads Forever Club board members, Rhonda McFarland ’72 and Portia Burston ’73 joined the Black Alumni Society (BAS) Farewell Brunch during Red and White Week, celebrating their lasting bond with NC State. 

We invite all GGFC members to attend future affinity events and continue building memories with fellow alumni.

As we look ahead to the new year, please keep an eye on your emails for updates on upcoming Golden Grads Forever Club events and activities. Wishing you all a restful holiday season and a joyful New Year!
