Grinnell College Admitted Student Reception in Chicago
You are invited to meet and celebrate the students admitted to Grinnell College from the Chicago area at a reception on Sunday, April 14. This event will be hosted by Graciela Guzman ′11.
At the event, you will get the chance to meet and mingle with the admitted students and each other while enjoying a pizza dinner. This is a great opportunity to share what you love about being a Grinnellian with an admitted student.
Sunday, April 14
5:30-7:30 p.m.
Pizano's Pizza & Pasta
61 E. Madison St.
Chicago, IL 60603
Pizza and refreshments will be served; there is no fee to attend.
Because of the very positive feedback from students last year, we will continue with the "buddy" system we piloted last spring. Each attending alum host will be paired with an admitted student. We encourage the alum to reach out to the student before the event to welcome them and to serve as a friendly "face" at the event.
RSVP to the Office of Development and Alumni Relations by Tuesday, April 9, 2018. In order to ensure room for our admitted students and their families, space at this event is limited so register early! You can register online below or by phone at 866-850-1846.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email Ashley Renstrom-Schaefer, associate director of alumni and donor relations for campus partnerships, at schaefer@grinnell.edu or call 641-269-9317.
