Through the newly launched online community, alumni can now read and submit class notes and milestones online to reconnect with former classmates. Online class notes supplement alumni news in the Winthrop Magazine and offer a more convenient way to submit updates. You can even include recent photos to enhance your alumni news. Submissions may be included in future editions of the Winthrop Update or Winthrop Magazine. Recent submissions include:
