Hi all, As soon as the tailgate contracting is complete, the USF Alumni Association will post the tailgates, with all the details, for on-line registration on its web-site, www.usfalumni.net. We will also send direct informational mailings to all alumni in the away game regions. If you have a valid e-mail address in our data base you will receive the monthly AlumNews e-newsletter that will keep you informed about the tailgates and any Alumni Association activities at home or on the road. Feel free to update your e-mail address and mailing address at www.usfalumni.net. Alumni Voice goes out via direct mail in August to all active association members. We have chapter contacts in Cincinnati, North Carolina and Orlando. If you want to connect in the area...check out the chapter pages on the web-site. Go Bulls! Merrell USF Alumni Association

Terrific comments about the USF Alumni Association. Spring Commencement 2006 realized USF's 200,000th graduate!!! We are now over 200,000 strong globally. Check out inCircle on the Alumni web site too to catch a glimpse of groups from Japan, Tampa, Philadelphia, Law, Hillel, Sigma Chi, Alpha Delta Pi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Panama and more......Go Bulls!!!

This certainly has been an incredible year! Agreed that our band, cheerleaders and sun dolls are terrific. Fan, student and alumni enthusiasm at the away games really impressed me. The tailgates were very well attended.....including 450 at Miami, 220 at Penn State and 600+ in Charlotte. 1st year in the Big East....Bowl Game. Winning record. 190,000 Alumni. 40,000+ students. A University that is on the verge of becoming a top 50 public research institute....all this with USF at 50 years young 8)....we should all be proud of ourselves and continue to strive for Bull Excellence!!! Go Bulls!!!

Dittos to Eric Soncrant.  What a tremendous showing by USF fans, students and alumni who traveled to Charlotte.  Although we did not win on the field, the message that we sent to Charlotte is that USF has outstanding class and spirit!!! We had great teamwork on the part of USF staff at all of the events.  Even the bowl president recognized our terrific participation at the pep rally!  Hats off to USF alumni, students, fans and staff!!!
