Sustain a lifelong network.

Denison is not just four years — it’s a lifetime. Our nearly 40,000 alumni form a powerful network that spans cities, industries, and generations. Strengthening these connections benefits everyone — students, graduates, and the college itself. 

We are building stronger systems for alumni engagement, from career networking and mentoring to expanded learning opportunities, regional events, and gatherings.
