Greetings, SEAS Alumni:

Here's a look at upcoming SEAS activities and events:


Farewell to Jeremy Adelman, Associate Director of Development for SEAS

Dean Tong and the SEAS Office of Development congratulate Mr. Jeremy Adelman, the associate director of development for SEAS, as he leaves his position here at GW for new adventures in the corporate world. Jeremy has accepted an offer to become vice-president of Paramount BioCaptial, a private equity investment bank, located in New York City.

"Jeremy has been a great development colleague who has built strong and enduring relationships that will pay dividends for SEAS and GW for many years to come. Of particular note is the pioneering work he has done across schools at GW to develop new programs in entrepreneurism and technology transfer. He will be missed, and we wish him much success," said Doug Honker, executive director of development for SEAS.



 

SEAS is proud to announce the GW Engineering group on LinkedIn, an independent, commercial, online networking tool.

SEAS has partnered with LinkedIn to provide this service for SEAS alumni, students, faculty, and staff, and we invite you to join the GW Engineering group. We hope that you will find it a useful tool for business networking, job searches, or simply for locating other members of the SEAS community.

To join the GW Engineering group, just click here and complete a LinkedIn member profile. Access to the group is free, completely optional, and is available only to members of the SEAS community.

About online business networking: You can use LinkedIn to expand and track your network in an organized and systematic way. The GW Engineering group on LinkedIn provides an ideal starting point, and it also provides a point of contact for people outside the SEAS community who are connected to your fellow GW Engineering group members.

About privacy: Please read the LinkedIn privacy policy to answer any concerns about privacy.
