Each year, a group of current UQ students hold thousands of conversations with our UQ community to learn and celebrate their major milestones and hear stories of their connection to the university. A phone call is our personal way of staying in touch and our students look forward to connecting with you soon.
Our reasons for calling:
- Reconnect with alumni and community members.
- Ensure we have the most up-to-date contact information, so you don’t miss out on exclusive offerings like events, alumni benefits and news.
- Hear your favourite stories and memories from your connection to UQ and learn about the milestones you are celebrating.
- Share the ways you can support causes you are passionate about.
When are you calling?
