Stay Connected – Attend an Event
Alumni Connections Week | September
Every September, the global Kettering and GMI community comes alive. Alumni Connections Week is a worldwide celebration of Bulldog pride—bringing alumni together through local, grassroots gatherings hosted across cities and regions around the globe. Whether it’s a relaxed meetup at a brewery, a winery outing, or a structured professional networking event, each gathering is a chance to reconnect, build new relationships, and rediscover what makes our community special.
These events are hosted by Alumni Champions—fellow graduates who are passionate about keeping the Bulldog spirit strong and alumni connected to each other and their alma mater.
