January 2025 – George Mason University Alumni Association 

Happy New Year, Patriots! 🎉🦅 

As we gear up for a fantastic spring semester, don’t forget to make the most of Homecoming 2025, happening from Friday, January 31, to Saturday, February 8! This is the perfect time to celebrate George Mason pride 💛💚, reconnect with alumni 🤝, and strengthen our campus community. From alumni networking receptions 🗨️ to thrilling events with George Mason Athletics 🏀, there’s something for everyone. 

We invite you to join us for a panel discussion entitled Love and Real Estate on Wednesday, February 5 at 11:30 AM in 1204 Merten Hall. Hear from Mason alumni Christal and Allen Johnson about their experiences building a multimillion-dollar real estate enterprise and how you can embark on a real estate career. Lunch will be provided from Fosters Grille, and the first 100 registrants will receive a copy of the Johnson’s book, entitled, 50 Things Your Real Estate Agent Should Tell You but Probably Won’t. Register now on Mason 360. 

RSOs: Take this opportunity to host alumni at your events or collaborate on activities that highlight our shared love for George Mason. Need inspiration? Partnering with George Mason Alumni Chapters (GMUAA) can provide event support, marketing assistance, and an opportunity to network with George Mason alumni. Whether it’s a welcome-back breakfast 🥞, speaker series 🎙️, or community service project 🤲, teaming up is a win-win! 

And don’t forget to keep an eye out for the GMUAA golf cart during Homecoming Week! We’ll be cruising around Mason Nation handing out free GMUAA swag 🎁 – come say hi and grab yours!
