Heading for Homecoming 2009 (Oct. 23-25), Elon’s Alumni Board was on campus Sept. 17-18 for its fall meeting. Attendees focused on planning for an expanded homecoming program and discussed next steps in efforts as diverse as the use of social media and ways to increase alumni financial support through the Ever Elon Campaign.

Students, staff and alumni gathered in front of Fonville Fountain at noon on Friday to remember the events of Sept. 11, 2001, in a brief reflection ceremony that featured poetry and a moment of silence.

A program directed by Elon School of Communications 2002 graduate Audrey Seagraves has received a prestigious international technology award. The online "Fair Wage Guide," managed by Seagraves, is a tool to assist millions of workers in the developing world who live below the poverty level.
