Linehan Alumni Network
The Linehan Alumni Network is led by our Assistant Director of Engagement, offering alums support to stay connected to our program and continue the Linehan vision of being leaders and makers empowered to create in various contexts. The network is inspired and supported by Earl and Darielle Linehan’s outlook for renewed Linehan alumni outreach and continued support for artists throughout each stage of their careers. The Linehan Alumni Network comprises three programs: the Alumni Career Forum, the Alumni Mentor Program, and Alumni Connect Events. These initiatives include in-person and virtual networking and mentorship opportunities, online community/resource venues, reunions, and more.
Alumni Career Forum
The Alumni Career Forum is facilitated through our Linehan Alumni LinkedIn Group and through our Alumni Connect Events. It is a space where Linehan alums can connect with each other to collaborate, network, and enhance their career opportunities within their respective fields and across disciplines. We encourage alumni to share their work and amplify the work of other alumni.
Alumni Mentor Program (AMP)
The Linehan Program Director and Assistant Director of Engagement pair mentors with mentee(s) based on their knowledge of the scholar, a brief questionnaire, and the field/area experience of the mentor. Alumni mentors are vetted based on their degree area(s), professional experiences, and supporting expertise (e.g., grant writing, communication, non-profit, graduate career, etc.). The Mentor program is facilitated through UMBC’s Retrievers Connect platform.
Alumni Connect Events
Alumni Connect Events are organized by the Assistant Director of Engagement to foster connection and community among Linehan alumni. We communicate with our UMBC-region alumni regularly to inform them of opportunities to join local and on-campus activities. Through an ongoing effort to encourage our alums to update their profile in UMBC’s Contact Info database, we are identifying geographical regions where Linehan alumni reside in order to gauge interest and plan gatherings across the U.S. We also collaborate with UMBC’s Alumni Association to host affinity gatherings within their events, such as UMBC’s Homecoming, UMBC night at Oriole Park, and Alumni Night at the BSO
Update Your Info
To continue building an active and dynamic alumni network, we ask all alumni to keep their contact information up to date with the UMBC Office of Alumni Engagement. Please keep your info current by using their Update Contact Information Form whenever a big change happens so that we can stay connected!
