Students Today, Alumni Tomorrow Did you know that UH has an alumni organization for students? The Student Alumni Connection (SAC), a subgroup of the Houston Alumni Organization, was created several years ago to groom students to become alumni. The organization is one of the largest and most spirited on campus, featuring approximately 2,000 members.This year, the SAC board has created an innovative program called “The Twenty-Seven.” The number Twenty-Seven signifies the year that the University was founded (1927), and the concept consists of 27 board members who are high-profile, high-energy students committed to extraordinary excellence through service to UH. The Twenty-Seven strives to promote campus tradition, pride and spirit. The organization’s goal is to become recognized throughout the campus as a quality and leading student organization that provides beneficial activities for its members and general student body. Members of The Twenty-Seven hope to achieve personal excellence through leadership opportunities, opportunities to network with alumni, and career development. If you know a UH student who may like to get involved, tell them to visit www.myCougarConnection.com/students for more details.
