With Young Alumni
We’re movin’ and shakin’ in the Alumni Relations Office as we focus on our young alumni who are those who graduated between the years of 1997 and 2007, or are 10 years out. We’re in the process of developing programs and events for the Omaha area as well as other regional areas. Check back often for more information!

Past Events
December Basketball Pre-Game Events
Hundreds of Creighton University Alumni took part in both Omaha Get Blue and the Third Annual Young Alumni Pre-Game Party in December.
Billy Bluejay made an appearance at Omaha Get Blue before a large Sunday crowd of more than 15,000 watched Creighton defeat Saint Joseph's 90-84 on Dec. 9.
On Dec. 20, hundreds of Creighton Young Alumni brought food donations to the Third Annual Young Alumni Pre-Game Event to help "stomp" out hunger during The Jay Stomp. The food was donated to the Omaha Food Bank in exchange for tickets to the game. Alumni were then treated to an 88-54 victory over North Carolina Central that night.
Follow the links for pictures from both pre-game events and we look forward to seeing you at a future alumni event!
Image and Influence Reception 2007
Young Alumni (graduates from 1997 – 2007) gathered on Thursday, Oct. 25, 2007, for an Image and Influence Event and Networking reception. Alumni and guests received tips on how to dress appropriately for the workplace and on weekends from Jerry Ryan and Ann Taylor. Afterwards, they made new connections while networking with each other.
Mai Tais on the Mall 2007
Over 100 graduates from the years 1997 – 2007 enjoyed Mai Tais on the Mall, a young alumni event held in conjunction with Reunion Weekend 2007: Destination Creighton and Hilltop Jam.
As a follow up to the 2006 Margaritas on the Mall, this event was a great success! Young Alumni took in the sights of the newly renovated east end of campus all while enjoying music provided by Omaha band The Confidentials.
