Welcome GOLD Alumni!

Do you remember going up to the Cuesta Grade to see “Hale Bopp”? How about being one of the first people to use the Rec Center gym? Did you buy sandwiches at the “Sandwich Factory” and not the “Sandwich Plant”? If so, you must be a graduate of the last decade!

GOLD is a regionally based program that works within the existing Alumni Association chapters. It was created and approved by the Alumni Board in 1998 as a way to connect young alumni in their 20s and 30s during their first years out of school. Alumni who join the Alumni Association and have graduated within the last 10 years are automatically part of the GOLD program.

GOLD events are geared toward young alumni, but all alumni are welcome, including friends of alumni. Typical events include after-work socials at a local restaurant or club, sporting events, or anything unique to a regional area.

Similar to other regional CPAA chapters, the GOLD program is represented on the Alumni Association Board of Directors. Your current GOLD Representative is:

Carina Yamaguchi (LS ’03)
