Brief Questionnaire

Commander, AFROTC DET 280

Lawrence KS 66045

Dear Distinguished Alumni,

Greetings, Flying Jayhawk Wing alumni! This letter serves as our official Det 280 Alumni Association kick-off. As a respected member of the United States Air Force, both past and present, and KU grad, we’re inviting you to join our alumni association. If you’re receiving this letter, it’s because you are part of the larger KU Alumni Association database, the source for our initial mailing list (some 1300 names). With your help, we hope to update contact data for all of our AFROTC KU graduates over the coming months and start up a valuable networking opportunity for both our alumni and current cadets.

Alumni support is critical to the success of our AFROTC program. You all bring active duty perspective and mentoring opportunities for our cadets as well as energy, enthusiasm and potential financial support. We want to develop creative ways to keep you engaged in the lives of our students, whether through individual career field mentoring with a specific cadet, “virtual mentoring” via the Internet in our academic setting, guest lecturing, or perhaps hosting a base visit. We’re open to your ideas as we spin up the group.

We’re in the process of updating our KU AFROTC website to enable electronic registration. In the mean time, I’d like to ask you to log in to the KU Alumni Association website http://www.kualumni.org/ and update your contact information. Registering with the KU Alumni Assn is FREE—you don’t have to become a member to update your contact information! This will enable us to stay connected to you via email, the most efficient means of communication at our disposal.

To give you a flavor of what we’re up to at the detachment, check out the cadet wing’s spring Astrohawk newsletter. We’d like to make this a regular electronic distribution to interested alumni, and perhaps even include an “alumni corner” to highlight your successes or provide space for your mentoring insights. Also, one of our main goals this year is to host our third annual AFROTC Alumni Weekend (April 2010). Events will (T) include a cadet wing dining in on Friday night, followed by a Saturday morning parade (not too early!), and an afternoon golf tournament. We’ll close out with an evening barbeque. Stand by for more details.

In closing, please feel free to forward this information to your KU AFROTC classmates and help us spread the word. I also request you answer the brief questionnaire (posted on the site) soliciting some basic information from each of you to help us determine your interests and the best means of outreach. We appreciate your input as we work to build our organization. You may email us at afrotc@ku.edu.

Thanks for all you do in service to our great country! We look forward to hearing from you. Rock chalk!

Sincerely

/// SIGNED ///
GENA R. STUCHBERY, Lt Col, USAF
