We have executed new partnership agreement with the following UCSD entities:

Student Life – Successfully secured a 4-year OP investment for Young Alumni Development

Bookstore – Inaugural Grad Night raised record numbers for sales, giving and membership

Career Services – Renewed agreement will leverage services and funding, and sustain a viable “Triton Network for Life”

ArtPower! and Loft – Leverages both the program and space for local alumni events

Extension – Extension alumni will increase funding, and cross-promotions will emphasize lifelong learning

Athletics – Strategic co-investment in student and alumni engagement thorough Homecoming and other events

Affinity and business development programs are generating necessary funds and delivering valuable services to our alumni:

Bank of America – The 7-year $1.2M contract is one of the largest in the UC System

Insurance programs – FY09 has shown the largest growth in auto insurance program royalties

Travel – Although we offer a modest portfolio, we continue to see a small number of alumni participating while we receive $5-10K per year in royalty revenue

@ucsd – Continues to generate growing ad revenue, and FY09 projection is $50K. Given the reduced circulation planned in FY10 and beyond, we need to assess this in order to maximize our revenue and distribution opportunities including online ads on our website and Facebook.
