January/February ebulletin
Thank you for all of your support in 2012 and happy new year! We aim to maintain the impetus in 2013 and invite you to take the opportunity to continue your relationship with the university by keeping us updated with your achievements, joining us at careers or networking events (whether that is virtually or in person), or helping us achieve our charitable goals.
This year also sees us celebrating our 21st year of university status. There will be plenty of ways to celebrate, not least by sharing your personal perspectives through our Bygone Brighton timeline project. We will be updating you with ways to commemorate this milestone as the year progresses.
You may recognise the iconic image from our banner (Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album cover by George Hardie). It is part of Then, Now, After… – an exhibition of famous illustrators comprising former staff and students of the university. Do check out our events listings for more information and pop in if you can.
Happy Birthday to us!
This is the year that the University of Brighton comes of age. To help us celebrate 21 years of university status, we would love your input. As part of our celebrations we will be orchestrating 21 dinners worldwide for our alumni and friends and we need your help. Read more…
