As you know, over the past few months we have worked towards establishing a UBRP Alumni Network. The network is now electronic and functional (but we expect to add more features as we go along). If you would like to be added to the network, and see who is already registered, please go to the following URL: http://ubrp.arizona.edu/alumni/registration.cfm and complete the electronic form. That is all there is to it!
