Alumni
Our alumni—nearly 3,000 of them—are the secret sauce of the Morehead-Cain.
Their experiences and advice will help you navigate the world beyond campus. It’s the closest you’ll ever get to having a crystal ball.
The MC Network
Through our online alumni directory, scholars are encouraged to reach out for advice on internships, graduate programs, travel, and just about anything else that might come up (within reason).
Our alums have interests as diverse as yours, if you can believe it, and they’re more than happy to help.
Alumni Speaker Series

A lot less formal and a lot more interesting than it sounds. Throughout the semester, we’ll schedule lunches, coffee hours, and the occasional food-free chat with visiting alums.*
In the past year, scholars have had a casual dinner with the head of the National Vaccine Program, enjoyed a Saturday brunch with a bestselling author, and taken tea with a congressman, among other things. Not a bad way to fill your calendar.
Alumni-in-Residence
Each semester, we assemble a group of accomplished alumni to tackle a particular issue: education reform, say, or sustainable design. They’ll gather on campus for two days, holding a discussion panel and office hours with individual students.
The Alumni Forum
Every three years, several hundred of our alums return to campus for a long weekend of catching up with one another and meeting scholars.
We’ll hold discussion panels, share meals, offer student and alumni performances—it’s like an intellectual cruise that never leaves shore. The next one is coming up in October of 2012!
