- Create a non-lclark.edu email address now (if you don’t have one already) that you will use after graduation. Your lclark email will be valid for one year after you graduate. It’s a good idea to start transitioning soon.
Update your Contact Information
Update the alumni office with your non-lclark.edu email and a new address (not your MSC box) where you will receive mail after you graduate. This is an important step, as you will receive event invitations at the address and email that the alumni office has for you. Events are a great opportunity to build networking contacts, stay in touch with L&C, and meet fellow alumni. Make sure to update the alumni office every time your contact information changes by emailing alumni@lclark.edu or calling our main line at 503.768.7950.
Once you graduate, you will gain access to the myLC alumni directory, which is also a great way to keep us updated on your whereabouts and find contact information for classmates.
Undergraduate Commencement is located in room 258 of the second floor of Fowler Student Center on the Undergraduate Campus.
