Each fall, Truman alumni and friends come together for the Alumni Leaders Conference to share ideas, develop new skills and network with other Bulldogs. Attendees can learn effective ways of communicating and what makes a successful alumni event, as well as get an inside look at what is happening on campus.

The ALC takes place in Kirksville on the Friday morning of Homecoming weekend, which will be Oct. 9 this year. Sponsored by the Truman Alumni Association, the conference is free of charge, and attendees will receive a special gift for participating. Prior to the conference, there will be a complimentary luncheon with the Truman Board of Governors, the Truman State University Foundation Board of Directors, the Truman Alumni Board of Directors and the President’s Advisory Council. Anyone interested in attending the ALC can email Denise Smith, director of alumni relations, at bulldogforever2@truman.edu.
