Quarterly Happy Hour Kick off
The Technology Alumni Association kicked off the New Year with a happy hour, Thursday, February 16th at Mandola's Deli. More than 35 College of Technology alumni gathered to enjoy light bites, drinks, and hear updates from Mike Pede, University of Houston associate vice president of alumni relations, Jennifer Knobloch, special events coordinator for the College of Technology, and Minela Bajrovic, president of the UH Technology Alumni Association.
The happy hour was a great way to network with others from the diverse majors within the College of Technology.
Miss this one? The happy hour series will continue on May 16, August 10, and November 9.
Come out and meet as many other Technology grads as you can, discuss your endeavors, and make some powerful connections.
