Explore how alumni-led City Clubs are rekindling Rollins traditions in communities nationwide.

The Rollins community has always extended beyond the Spanish-style archways and mossy oaks of our campus. Our alumni live and lead in cities around the globe. That's why we're bringing Rollins to you with the return of alumni City Clubs.

A beloved tradition now making a comeback, this series of recurring gatherings is designed to connect you with nearby alumni in a way that's meant to last. Think of City Clubs as your local alumni anchors. From regional Fox Day celebrations to networking happy hours, events will be rolling out over the upcoming year. Each one is created by City Club co-chairs, alumni who plan and initiate gatherings to build upon the Rollins spirit in their areas.

The 2024 Alumni Survey confirmed that you’re looking for more ways to reconnect, and City Clubs provide the perfect opportunity. These local meetups will make spending time with fellow graduates easy—no travel required.

This fall, events are planned in Atlanta, Central Florida, and Dallas. Cities to come in the spring include Washington, D.C.; Lexington, Kentucky; and New York City. No matter where you live, there’s a chance a City Club is coming your way in the near future.

Every rendezvous is shaped by local alumni who know their cities best, making for a welcoming atmosphere that mixes Rollins tradition with a touch of regional charm. Here are a few of the alumni helping bring our City Clubs to life:

  • Rashmi Adi-Brown ’87
  • Anne Crews ’75
  • Chris Domijan ’78 ’80MBA
  • John Henry ’88 ’90MBA
  • Katherine Johnson ’90MBA
  • Tony LeVecchio ’68 ’69MBA
  • Lisa-Marie Matyas ’14
  • Donald Phan ’19
  • Natalie Schmook ’05
  • Lee Saufley Swain ’87 P’25

And that’s just the beginning. With your support, we’re strengthening the national Rollins network, one city at a time. Want to know when a City Club is headed your way? Update your contact information so we can keep you in the loop on the latest alumni news and events in your area.
