The Collegian Alumni Interest Group has been honored by the Penn State Alumni Association for its support of and involvement with current Collegian staffers and Collegian alumni.
The AIG is recognized as an Affiliate Group of Distinction at the Elm Level based on activities and achievements during the 2024-25 reporting year.
“This achievement places your group among our highest-performing affiliate groups and reflects the dedication and commitment of your members,” Lauren Wright, Alumni Association Regional Director (Chapters) Volunteer Engagement, wrote to the AIG board in announcing the recognition.
Among the AIG’s accomplishments was the successful establishment of the Collegian Alumni Interest Group Sustaining Fund in partnership with the Alumni Association. The Sustaining Fund is intended to “provide stipends and prizes that reward excellence and fuel the innovation necessary for the Collegian to thrive in the digital age,” according to AIG President Robyn Radomski.
In a message to AIG board members about the Alumni Association honor, Radomski wrote: “This is a meaningful achievement and a direct reflection of your commitment, creativity, and steady leadership on behalf of our alumni community. … Thank you for the time, energy, and thoughtfulness each of you brings to this board. It has been a pleasure to work alongside such a dedicated group, and I am truly grateful for all you do.”
