The 2005 Spring Projects and Alumni Fair was held in the Student Union Ballroom. As classes ended, people slowly trickled in to enjoy the vast array of projects from Fashion to Video Game Productions. A great success was Jessica Morgan's “Goood 4 You” café station which featured healthy and delicious homemade organic snacks such as Satisfy My Soul tea and Veggii muffins.

Following the project display was the alumni forum. Guest speaker and moderator for the forum was Carolyn Gould from Campus Career Services. Alumni guests discussed their careers, experiences they encountered after college, and how BDIC has affected both. After the discussion panel, everyone enjoyed the delectable treats provided by UMass Catering. The evening ended with fabulous music provided by The Sugarfoot Stompers (a band that included BDIC student Lyon Graulty).

If any alumni are interested in coming to campus for a future Project Fair and Alumni Forum, please contact us at BDIC. We are always eager to see you! And, as alumni, you are invaluable resources for our students.
