Alumni Buzz Fall 2022

Stay Connected!

VICTORIA HINDE, ALUMNI DEVELOPMENT OFFICER

Victoria HindeDear SAF alumni,

This fall has been an exciting return to campus, where I have really enjoyed the opportunity to meet more of our students in person and meet more of our SAF alumni community either on campus or at university events. At the School, we welcomed a new director – although not new to the School, he is new to the role, Blake Phillips has been appointed the director of the School of Accounting and Finance.

With our Class Notes section launching after our last E-Newsletter issue, it was so fantastic to read some entries for this newsletter, please continue to share your exciting news and updates with the School and with the SAF community.

I would be delighted to have the opportunity to speak with you, to learn about what you have been doing since graduation and discuss how you may stay connected to the School of Accounting and Finance. Please contact me via email, at vmhinde@uwaterloo.ca.

As we wrap up this busy fall term and the year, I want to wish you all the best heading into 2023!

Kind regards,
