This month’s edition of Melbourne Alumni e-news includes a number of special offers and benefits for alumni. Perhaps the most exciting is the chance for alumni to attend a complimentary private viewing of Melbourne Museum’s ‘A Day in Pompeii' exhibition. You’ll find details of this event – and many more – in this bulletin.
Don’t forget – you can tailor the content of your e-news to suit your personal interests, by visiting the Alumni Preferences Centre at http://www.unimelb.edu.au/alumni/awc/. We hope you enjoy this edition.
Yours sincerely,
The Alumni Relations Team
