Welcome LSM Alumni!
You have a lasting connection to LSM. Each year, alumni reconnect to their transformational LSM experiences by nominating students, donating, volunteering, attending regional events and the summer alumni gathering, and sharing their music and stories with the LSM community.
We welcome your participation and there are so many ways to get involved. Read below for all of our current initiatives and join us where you feel inspired.
Meet Alumni Director, Eric Sayre
I am thrilled to serve LSM through the important role of Alumni & External Relations Director. As an alum myself (LSM 2004-2005), I know firsthand the transformational power of our community and I strongly value the significant role it can continue to serve in our lives. I am hopeful to amplify the many passionate and diverse voices across our alumni network while working to strengthen our service to our current and future students. I invite you to reach out to me at any time. I love being a part of this community and would relish the opportunity to connect with all of you.
