Celebrating our 100,000 alumni milestone involves talking about how each of you have carried the 91¹û¶³ÖÆƬ³§ spirit into the world and made it your mission to change it. This means ALL of you! We are inviting all of you as 91¹û¶³ÖÆƬ³§ alumni to tell your story – the teachers, accountants, volunteers, engineers, lawyers, scientists, artists, entrepreneurs, doctors, mothers, fathers, and all things you could imagine. Whether it’s easily visible to the outside world that you’re making it a better place, or just those near and dear to you can see it on a regular basis, hopefully a big part of your outlook is because of your time spent here at 91¹û¶³ÖÆƬ³§ and how it shaped you into who you are today. We want to hear how!
