“The Clermont College Great Alumni Hunt has been a very interesting and rewarding experience for me,” Heidi Rowles, first place winner in The Great Alumni Hunt, said. “The most surprising thing to me during the alumni hunt was how willing the alumni were to help me and how much everyone who goes through Clermont College loves the school.
“My favorite find was Dr. David, who is head of cardiology at St. John Providence hospital in Detroit and teaches at Wayne State Medical School. He was very friendly and offered to make a donation to Clermont in honor of Dr. Fankhauser. Everything about the alumni hunt has reinforced my belief that Clermont College is an outstanding school that has a strong base of alumni who love the school and are willing to support it.”
Clermont considers someone who attended the college for one year an alum. If you are interested in reconnecting with UC Clermont, please contact Mindi Hilgeman, Program Coordinator, at 513-558-3420 or mindi.hilgeman@uc.edu.
