Late at night on a recent Thursday, a large crowd of Yale students and alumni assembled on campus at the Rose Alumni House, but not for just any regular party. They were mingling for a purpose — to welcome the inaugural committee volunteers of Students and Alumni of Yale (STAY), a new program that will bring together Yale undergraduate, graduate, and professional school students with alumni through service, mentorship, and social activities.
This central purpose — bringing Yalies together across classes, generations, and degree programs for the benefit of the University, the community, and the world — makes STAY unique among Yale organizations. STAY’s creation also makes Yale a pioneer among the Ivies in student-alumni service and programming, notes Steve Blum, senior director of strategic initiatives for the Association of Yale Alumni (AYA).
