Tiger Connections

Oxy Tigers at reunion

Community is empowering. Through shared values, a common vision and a spirit of mutual respect, alumni, students, faculty and staff can come together to create and sustain a better society.

Oxy will celebrate its 136th year at the conclusion of the Oxy Campaign For Good. In honor of that milestone, we invite and encourage you to connect with fellow Tigers, contributing to a goal of 136,000 community connections over the course of the Campaign.

It’s never too late or too early to get involved! The Oxy Office of Alumni and Parent Engagement brings together alumni and families from across generations. Each of these engagement points is a “connection” in this Campaign.

Stay Connected

Communications

Tell us what you’re up to! We love to hear from Oxy Tigers. Keep in touch by updating your alumni profile, join a social media group, post opportunities for students on Switchboard, submit class notes to the Oxy magazine, and participate in Oxy polls and surveys.

Every Connection Counts!

Have you recently connected with fellow Oxy Tigers, beyond the Alumni office? Perhaps at a social event, through mentoring, or simply by spotting someone in Oxy gear? We’ll count these connections as progress toward our goal.

Giving back to Oxy is something I’m proud to do. Providing scholarship support and encouraging young graduates who are embarking on their professional journeys takes me back to when my Oxy mentors and Oxy alumni did the same for me.

It was natural to stay involved with giving at Occidental. Without financial aid, I wouldn’t have been able to attend a school like Oxy. The campaign has a very personal connection to me.
