If one thing's certain about @macalumni, it's that they land all over the world after graduation. We were thrilled seeing so many alums gather for Mac In Your City 2023 this past weekend (from St. Paul all the way to Singapore!) to reconnect and make new memories. #HeyMac#MIYC23
A self-described “library person,” alum Maureen Hartman ’95 discovered her love for library science after graduating from Mac. Now she’s taking the lead at the St. Paul Public Library system as libraries evolve and adapt in the digital age. #heymacstartribune.com/meet-the-new…
One of the (many!) things I love about the @Macalester community is that— no matter where you go— you’ll find a Mac connection. Calling all @macalumni: join a “Mac in Your City” event this week to make new Mac memories!
